Abstract:The objectives of this study are to test whether the Gravity and Intervening Opportunity Models (IOM) can successfully reproduce aggregate evacuation destination choice observed in evacuation behavior from Hurricane Floyd, compare the performance of the Gravity and Intervening Opportunity Models in modeling evacuation destination choice, and test the transferability of the Gravity Model by applying the model estimated from the Floyd data to the data from Hurricane Andrew.
