Show moreThis study aims to address the unique challenges of transportation in rural and disconnected communities through innovative data-driven methodologies. The primary methods employed in this research involve Geographic Information Systems (GIS) tools and simulation techniques to model and assess the impact of flood zones on rural traffic dynamics. The study recognizes the distinct mobility patterns and limited infrastructure prevalent in rural areas, emphasizing the need for tailored solutions to manage flood-induced disruptions. By leveraging GIS tools, the study intends to spatially analyze existing transportation networks, population distribution, flood-prone areas, and key points of interest to formulate a comprehensive understanding of the local context. Simulation-based approaches using the PTV VISSIM platform will be employed to model and assess various flood scenarios and their effects on traffic flow and accessibility. This study’s outcomes aim to contribute valuable insights into improving accessibility, efficiency, and safety in transportation for these underserved areas during flood events. By combining GIS tools and simulation techniques, this research seeks to provide a robust framework for data-driven decision-making and policy formulation in the realm of rural and disconnected community mobility, particularly in the context of flood risks.
