Özet

Given that disasters are unavoidable, and many people are suffering from them each year, we should manage the emergencies and plan for them well to reduce mortality and financial losses. One of the measures that organizations must take after the disaster is the assessment of the conditions and needs of the people. We consider some characteristics for sites and roads and two teams for assessment as well as the uncertain assessment time to modeling. A multi-objective model is proposed in this study. The first objective function maximizes the gain from the assessment of areas and roads. The second and third objective functions maximize total coverage at damaged areas and roads. We use the LP-metric technique to solve small size problems in the GAMS software and the Grasshopper Optimization Algorithm (GOA) as a Meta-heuristic algorithm to solve a case study. Numerical results are presented to prove the credibility and efficiency of our model.
