摘要：This study gives an overview of the development
of computer simulator that quantitatively evaluates the
effectiveness of the evacuation guidance methods for tourists.
The majority of past studies intensively focused on the
movements of targeted residents in disaster sites, while there is
a very limited investigation on visitors, such as tourists and
business persons. In a disaster situation, most tourists tend to
converge at a limited number of big rails stations in order to
keep their way home or get any information, which may result
in crowding and panic. So, it is important to study the
evacuation guidance methods for tourists in advance and design
all necessary guidelines. This study presents a support system
for a simulation about disaster refuge in large areas for tourists.
In the simulation for supporting evacuation guidance targeting
tourists, it was difficult to simulate the massive number of
movements of tourists simply because their actions are very
much varied and the area is wide. Therefore, we propose a
simulator based on cellular automaton. To present the
simulation result in a visually comprehensive way, we paid
attention to the colors assigned to the cell. And thus, we
conducted an evaluation to estimate optimum colors and got
interviews experts about our system.
