Abstract
This report presents an overview of a set of data collection methods that can be used for the study of wildfire evacuation during community drills. A demonstration of a set of suitable data collection methods is performed during an evacuation drill conducted at Roxborough Park, Colorado (USA) in June 2024. Data collection methods reviewed and adopted included both quantitative and qualitative methods, i.e. drone footage, human observers through a dedicated app or manual recordings, traffic counters, questionnaires and postcards. Findings provide guidance on collecting data from such type of evacuation drills and the agreement between different data collection methods.
