In times of disasters, accessing to shelters by the victims is a vital task in humanitarian logistics.One of the humanitarian logistics challenges is the difficulty involved in effectivelycoordinating large numbers of victims. Especially, the lack of spatial information involved inthe rescue and recovery region is an obstacle for efficient planning. In this paper, a geographicinformation system (GIS)-based solution approach is developed to manage the assignments ofvictims to the shelters in times of disasters. To do so, the capacitated maximize coverage toolof ArcGIS is used and tested on the case of Tunceli city. As a result, different scenario analysesare generated under the distance and time restrictions between victims and shelters. Case resultsdemonstrate the proposed approach’s ability to support efficient and effective disastermanagement.
