• Abstract:
  In the first year of this project, our team was able to develop a good understanding of how floods impact travel times and roads in Iowa. The analysis allows us to understand what areas will be more or less accessible after floods, which can help in making decisions for establishing evacuation centers and routing people outside the flood zone. We developed cyber tools and interfaces to recommend new routes in a flooding situation and used this tool to understand the impact of floods. ; Data for this report can be accessed at: https://doi.org/10.32873/unl.dr.20190130
