Abstract

Doğal afetler, can ve mal kaybına yol açabilen yıkıcı olaylardır. Deprem, sel, yangın gibi afetlerin yarattığı tahribat, insan hayatının kurtarılması ve maddi zararların önlenmesi için acil durum planlaması ve koordinasyon gerektirir. Afet bölgesindeki insanların güvenli tahliyesi ve acil durum araçlarının etkin yönlendirilmesi hayati bir öneme sahiptir. Bu çalışmada, Türkiye’nin özgün trafik koşulları ve acil durum araçlarının gereksinimleri dikkate alınarak ambulanslar için bir rota optimizasyon modeli geliştirilmiştir. Bu model, mevcut yol ağlarının ambulansların kullanımına uygun hale getirilmesini ve acil durum müdahale sürelerinin iyileştirilmesini hedeflemektedir. Yenilikçi çözümler arasında trafik ışıklarında ambulanslara öncelik verilmesi, gerektiğinde ters yönde seyahat edebilme senaryoları ve zorlu trafik koşullarında etkili rotaların belirlenmesi yer almaktadır. Bu sayede ambulans hizmetlerinin iyileştirilmesi ve müdahale sürelerinin kısaltılmasıyla hasta ve yaralıların hayatta kalma oranlarının artırılması amaçlanmaktadır. Sonuçlar, ambulans hizmetlerinin verimliliğini artırdığını ve müdahale sürelerini azalttığını göstermektedir. Çalışma, Türkiye için ambulans rotası optimizasyonu ve acil durum yönetimi alanında önemli bir adım olarak değerlendirilmektedir
