Abstract

This paper presents the WUISHOW, a digital collaborative evacuation decision-making tool designed to assist wildland-urban interface (WUI) fire stakeholders in emergency management and response. The tool has been developed with a dual scope: 1) to allow assessment of end users needs and 2) to allow visualisation through procedural generation of the results of wildfire evacuation simulations. The WUISHOW is developed through a virtual reality game engine and represents an interface for collaborative decision-making, which enables different modalities and hardware deployments. The WUISHOW includes both a desktop version along with a multi-touch table version able to facilitate decision support for stakeholders by displaying interactive wildfire evacuation modelling results in VR related to real-world scenarios.
