What is it about?
Disaster relief operations are subject to various uncertainty. Particularly, unknown road conditions and unexpected reactions by residents are major challenges. By integrating such factors in disaster relief training and planning systems, the impact of such uncertainties on relief operations can be studied.

Why is it important?
Fast and efficient response in crucial during disaster relief operations. By integrating agent behavior, implications can be derived and operations supported.
Perspectives
The developed framework shows the potential strength of agent-based simulation optimization in disaster relief settings. For future work, more data on agent behavior is of importance to reflect various action and interaction of affected residents.
