A decision support system for coordinated disaster relief distribution

作者：

Highlights：

• This paper introduces a DSS to support coordination in disaster relief distribution.

• An MIP and an agent-based simulation with optimization procedures are presented.

• Road closures and off-road as well as unmanned aerial vehicles are considered.

• Computational experiments are based on flood scenarios of two Austrian regions.

• Results highlight potentials of coordinated disaster relief distribution.
