Abstract

This paper designs to develop a transportable disaster response system named "DroneGo" through the deployment of drones, medical packages and containers to solve the problem of medical relief in the face of hurricane in Puerto Rico. Firstly, this paper aims to carry as many medical packages as possible. With the requirements of medical packages in disaster areas and the upper limit of the volume of ISO containers as constraints, adorned fleet and a set of medical packages meeting the requirements of Puerto Rico’s hurricane scenario are obtained by using the integer programming model. Secondly, two optimal locations for the DroneGo disaster response system container were determined using the non-linear optimization, so as to be able to perform medical supply delivery and video reconnaissance on the road network. Finally, simulated annealing algorithm and shortest path algorithm are adopted to plan the delivery route, schedule and flight plan of the drone. Based on the analysis of the above problems, this paper establishes a viable "DroneGo" transportable disaster response system. Furthermore, in case of future hurricane disasters exceeding the scale of existing disasters, the system established in this paper can still meet the medical relief needs brought by disasters after some minor adjustments.
