Abstract

Urban pluvial flooding has become an important factor in urban casualties and economic losses, thus, there is an urgent need to strengthen urban emergency management research and improve emergency response capabilities to flooding. The SCS–CN hydrological model combined with GIS spatial analysis were used to assess the spatial accessibility of the emergency response to key urban public services (medical and fire) for different pluvial flooding scenarios of the Jiaozuo urban area. The results show that the coverage area of the public service department (medical and fire) emergency response decreases as the period of pluvial flooding recurrence increases. The accessibility of the public service department (medical and fire services) emergency response shows a gradual decline from the center of the Jiaozuo urban area to the periphery. The depth and area of water accumulation in the northern part of the Zhongzhan District, the northeastern part of the Macun District, and the southwestern part of the Shanyang District gradually increased as the heavy rainfall recurrence period increased. Emergency response from public services (medical and fire services) could not arrive within 15 min.
