DRAFT PEDESTRIAN TRAVEL-TIME MAPS FOR CORDOVA, ALASKA:
An anisotropic model to support tsunami evacuation planning
by
D.J. Nicolsky, L.A. Gardine, and A.E. Macpherson
ABSTRACT Tsunami-inducedpedestrian evacuation for Cordova is evaluated using an anisotropicmodeling approachdevelopedbytheU.S.GeologicalSurvey.Themethodisbasedonpath-distancealgorithmsandaccountsforvariationsinlandcoveranddirectionalityintheslopeofterrain.Wemodelevacuationofpedestrianstoexitpointsfromthetsunamihazardzone.Thepedestriantravelisrestrictedtotheroadsonly.Resultspresentedhere are intended to provide guidance to local emergency management agencies for tsunami inundationassessment,evacuationplanning,andpubliceducationtomitigatefuturetsunamihazards.

DISCLAIMER: The developed pedestrian travel-time maps have been completed using the best information available and are believed to be accurate; however, their preparation required many assumptions. Actual conditions during a tsunami may vary from those assumed, so the accuracy cannot be guaranteed. Areas inundated will depend on specifics of the earthquake, any earthquake-triggered landslides, on-land construction, tide level, local ground subsidence, and may differ from the areas shown on the map. Information on this map is intended to permit state and local agencies to plan emergency evacuation and tsunami response actions. The Alaska Earthquake Center and the University of Alaska Fairbanks make no express or implied representations or warranties (including warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose) regarding the accuracy of neither this product nor the data from which the pedestrian travel time maps were derived. In no event shall the Alaska Earthquake Center or the University of Alaska Fairbanks be liable for any direct, indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages with respect to any claim by any user or any third party on account of or arising from the use of this map.

In thisreport,weemploy thepedestrianevacuationmodeling toolsdevelopedbytheU.S.GeologicalSurvey (USGS) (Wood and Schmidtlein, 2012, 2013; Jones and others, 2014) to provide guidance toemergencymanagers and community planners in assessing the amount of time required for people toevacuateoutofthetsunami-hazardzone.Anoverviewofthepedestrianevacuationmodelingtools,requireddatasets,andthestep-by-stepprocedureusedisprovidedinMacphersonandothers(2017,thisseries).ThemapsofpedestriantraveltimecanhelpidentifyareasinCordovaonwhichtofocusevacuationtrainingandtsunamieducation.

TSUNAMI HAZARD TsunamihazardassessmentforCordovawasperformedbynumericallymodelingseveralhypothetical
scenarios (Nicolsky and others, 2014). The worst-case scenarios for Cordova are thought to be thrustearthquakesbeneathPrinceWilliamSoundwithmagnitudesaboveMw8.8.
Nicolskyandothers(2014)estimatethatthetsunamiwavecouldbearound6m(18ft)highandwouldarriveapproximately1hraftertheearthquake.ModeledextentsofthepotentialinundationintheCordovaharborareacomputedbyNicolskyandothers(2014)isshownbytheredlineinfigure2.
Thehydrodynamicmodelused to calculatepropagation and runupof tsunami(Nicolsky andothers,2011)haspassed the appropriate validation andverification tests (Synolakisandothers,2007;NTHMP,2012).Weemphasizethatalthoughthedevelopedalgorithmhasmetthebenchmarkingprocedures,thereisstilluncertaintyinlocatinganinundationline.Forexample,theaccuracyisaffectedbymanyfactorsonwhichthemodelisbased,includingsuitabilityoftheearthquakesourcemodel,accuracyofthebathymetricandtopographicdata,andtheadequacyofthenumericalmodelinrepresentingthegeneration,propagation,andrunupoftsunamis.WerefertoNicolskyandothers(2014)forfurtherin-depthdiscussionoftheuncertaintyinthemodeledtsunamihazardzone.
To account for the above-mentioned uncertainties, we enlarge the modeled extent of potentialinundationbyaddingasafetybuffer.Inparticular,areaswithin45m(150ft)oftheinundationlineandwiththeelevationslessthan110%ofthelocalrunuparethoughttobeariskoffloodingintheworst-casetsunamievent.

PEDESTRIAN EVACUATION MODELING Pedestrian evacuationmodeling and prediction of population vulnerability to tsunami hazardswere
successfullyappliedtocoastalcommunitiesinAlaskabyWoodandPeters(2015).AlsorefertoWoodandSchmidtlein (2012, 2013) for an overview and limitations of the anisotropic, least-cost distance (LCD)approachtomodelingpedestrianevacuation.WestressthattheLCDfocusesontheevacuationlandscape,usingcharacteristicssuchaselevation,slope,andlandcovertocalculatethemostefficientpathtosafety.Therefore, computed travel times are based on optimal routes, and actual travel timesmay be greaterdependingonindividualroutechoiceandenvironmentalconditionsduringanevacuation.

MODELING RESULTS

Modeledpedestriantraveltimestoexitpoints(shownbygreen squares) can reachupwards of 20 minutes forevacueesattheFerryTerminalandcanexceed30minutesforevacuees on New EnglandCanery Rd., north of theterminal. These estimates donotincludeanymillingtimeoradditional extras needed todeboard the ferry. Cleartsunami evacuation signs anddirection could be used toguide the public out of thehazardzone.
The modeling results forsouthern Cordova (Figure 4)show that areas alongWhitshed Rd., south of ThreeMile Bay, would requireevacueestotravelupwardsof30 minutes to reach thenearestexitpoint.

Color gradation indicates how many minutes it would take for an evacuee to walk to the nearest exit point. The walking speed is assumed to be 3 ft/s or 2 mph.
