To\r\nsupport situational exploration, unmanned aerial and ground\r\nvehicles attract increasing attention, primarily used to\r\ndocument operational sites. However, they offer further\r\npotential in early operational phases. To ensure their reliable\r\nuse for exploration, decision-makers must be aware of\r\nopportunities and limitations under prevailing conditions. For\r\nthis, use cases for robotic simulation in emergency response\r\nare presented, considering technical restrictions and dynamic\r\ninfluences from weather impacts. The approach of integrating\r\nrescue robot simulation into the response phase is developed\r\nfollowing a five-step research design. Existing use cases of\r\nrescue robot simulation are identified in a systematic literature\r\nanalysis. The results are extended with use cases developed for\r\nurban flooding scenarios. Subsequently, use cases are assessed\r\nand selected for implementation in the simulation environment\r\nGazebo. Finally, the results are validated with end users in the\r\nEU research project CREXDATA, which focuses on decision\r\nsupport based on processing extreme data. The implemented\r\nuse cases demonstrate the potential of robotic simulation in\r\nemergency response to accelerate action planning in decisionmaking and provide a more detailed picture, enabling betterinformed decisions.

Typically, simulations are used to consider a variety of potential extreme weather scenarios in preparedness phases. Due to required computing power, duration and high efforts in parameterizing such tools are hardly used within response situations. Enhanced simulation models and surrogate models based on machine learning technologies carry potentials to overcome\r\nthese challenges. An approach is presented that adopts simulation for the case of flooding events. It considers all phases from demand situation in command posts through advanced parameter space exploration to advanced visualization of simulation results in Augmented Reality. Initial evaluation results are presented, complemented by conclusions on incorporated technologies. The results contribute to future adoption of simulation even in time-critical\r\nresponse situations."}],"publication":"Mensch und Computer 2024 - Workshopband","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"keyword":["extreme weather","emergency response","simulation","Augmented Reality"],"year":"2024","quality_controlled":"1","title":"Extending the application of simulation from preparedness to response use cases in weather-induced emergencies","date_created":"2024-09-05T11:37:39Z","publisher":"Gesellschaft für Informatik e.V.","status":"public","type":"conference","user_id":"405","department":[{"_id":"152"}],"project":[{"grant_number":"101092749","_id":"516","name":"CREXDATA: CREXDATA: Kritische Maßnahmenplanung über extreme Datenmengen"}],"_id":"56072","citation":{"short":"J.
