| Summary: | This study was done determine the shortest route of the ambulance from the scene
to the hospital. Besides that, it was done to assigns the hospital to deploy the
ambulance to the scene according to the needs of the patient. In addition, the study
was done to minimize the response time in terms of distance by the ambulance to
transfer the patient from the scene to the hospital. The link-based algorithm was
executed to determine the ambulance shortest path from the scene to the hospital. It
is initiated and analyse repeatedly until the ambulance reaches the hospital as it will
update the route from time to time with the traffic condition. The ambulance shortest
paths from different scenes to the hospital were determined and analysed. Several
alternatives to the hospitals had been executed to minimize the response time
depending on the traffic condition. The link-based algorithm helps to update the
paths to the hospital from time to time depending on the traffic condition. It is
recommended to apply the ambulance shortest paths problem with the geospatial
informatics system and the traffic transmitter for future research to improve the
performance of ambulance service. |
