Abstract

The main objective of disaster response is to secure lives and livelihoods at first. To achieve that, policymakers need accurate information regarding disaster areas to make a quick decision right after the disaster. Especially at a large scale disaster, it is much more important to respond to it quickly due to the number of affected people. In the uncertain atmosphere of the disaster, decision-makers can utilize UAS (Unmanned Aerial Systems) to gather instant images of the disaster area for Search and Rescue Mission (SAR) and damage assessment. Also, it will be used as a communication tool between emergency units and the command center. This paper discusses the usage of UAS in a possible İstanbul earthquake. Considering the damages that may occur after a possible Istanbul earthquake, 5 criteria have been determined, these criteria have been weighted within the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) method, and the Technique for Order-Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) method has prioritized the districts of Istanbul according to these criteria. With the help of this ranking, when the Istanbul earthquake occurs, if a different duty was not given to UASs, it was tried to be determined which districts should first look for the UAS's SAR mission.

Özet

Afete müdahalenin temel amacı, öncelikle yaşamları ve geçim kaynaklarını güvence altına almaktır. Bunu başarmak için, politika yapıcıların afetten hemen sonra hızlı bir karar verebilmeleri için afet alanlarıyla ilgili doğru bilgiye ihtiyaçları vardır. Özellikle büyük çaplı bir felakette, etkilenen insan sayısı nedeniyle buna hızlı bir şekilde cevap vermek çok daha önemlidir. Felaketin belirsiz atmosferinde karar vericiler, Arama ve Kurtarma Misyonu (AKM) ve hasar değerlendirmesi için felaket alanının anlık görüntülerini toplamak için İHA'ı (İnsansız Hava Sistemleri) kullanabilirler. Ayrıca acil durum birimleri ile komuta merkezi arasında bir iletişim aracı olarak kullanılacaktır. Bu makale olası bir İstanbul depreminde UAS kullanımını tartışmaktadır. Olası bir İstanbul depreminden sonra meydana gelebilecek zararlar göz önüne alındığında, 5 kriter belirlenmiş, bu kriterler AHP (Analitic Hierarchy Process) yöntemi içinde tartılmış ve TOPSIS (Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solutions) yöntemi kullanılmıştır. İstanbul ilçelerini bu kriterlere göre önceliklendirmiştir. Bu sıralamanın yardımıyla, İstanbul depremi meydana geldiğinde, IHA'lara farklı bir görev verilmemişse, hangi bölgelerin ilk önce İHA'ın AKM misyonunu araması gerektiği belirlenmeye çalışılmıştır.
