Abstract
Modelling and simulation help comparing complex and
interrelated decision options in disaster risk and crisis
management. To support the user in his specific decision
situations, detailed simulation results need to be
aggregated and communicated by indicators that
characterize situation- and process-related aspects of
alternative scenarios. The FP7-funded project CRISMA
implements a modelling and simulation framework for
stakeholder and crisis specific applications, which is
demonstrated in pilot studies on coastal submersion,
earthquake, extreme cold weather, chemical spill and
large traffic accidents. This paper describes an approach
to quickly understand and compare alternative simulation
runs (which represent scenarios) with support of
indicators that are calculated based on reference and
model data in the simulation system.
