Outline of Final Research Achievements |
During the initial stage of a disaster, aircraft operate intensively and simultaneously use several airports as bases, given their mandate to promptly perform their duties. During the Great East Japan Earthquake, aircraft― primarily civilian and government helicopters―used airports in disaster area as bases immediately after the disaster struck. These aircraft performed tasks such as information gathering, emergency rescue, and personnel and goods transport. In this study, we interviewed personnel in the organizations involved in operating these aircraft and airports during the disaster. Further, we analyzed optimal airport operation in disaster area by simulation models. We present our findings and detail the role of an airport as a disaster management facility and the challenges faced by an airport during a disaster.
