Automated Community-Based Housing Response: Offering Temporary Housing Solutions Tailored to Displaced Populations Needs
AbstractFollowing disasters, emergency management agencies are under immense pressure to make quick decisions regarding the provision of temporary housing, including their locations and types. Such decisions can significantly impact the socioeconomic recovery of displaced families and available budgets for other postdisaster activities. To address these challenges, a new holistic temporary housing planning framework is proposed to offer customized housing plans tailored to the specific social, economic, and psychological needs of displaced families while controlling expenditures. This paper presents the theoretical formulation and implementation details of the community-based housing response pool, which is a comprehensive framework that aims at (1) quantifying the specific needs and preferences of each displaced family, (2) evaluating the ability of housing alternatives to meet those needs, (3) computing temporary housing life cycle costs, and (4) optimizing housing decisions accordingly. The paper also presents an application example to demonstrate and evaluate the optimization model capabilities.
