Short summary

The importance of managing the crisis caused by floods requires the development of effective evacuation systems. An evacuation system must take into account certain constraints such as network traffic, accessibility and vulnerability. The main objective of this work is to provide assistance to technical services and rescue forces in terms of accessibility by offering itineraries relating to the rescue and evacuation of people and property. Evacuation plan must avoid congestion on road network.
