Evaluation of 112-110 emergency call of erzincan with geographical i̇nformation systems and time series analysis

The most important criterion for 112-110 emergency call is the time, which is between the arrival of the teams at the event location after the emergency call and the initiation of emergency response; and called as "response time". One of the most significant problems affecting the response time is the difficulty arising from the station settlement location. Today's advanced information technologies and monitoring techniques are used commonly in detecting the station settlement location. One of the methods used for this purpose is the "Geographical Information Systems" (GIS). As the literature was reviewed, it was noticed that detecting the station settlement location was carried with GIS in some provinces in Turkey. In this study, it was aimed to evaluate the Erzincan City Centre 112-110 Service stations, the coverage of service areas with the geographical information systems and detect the buffer area of the stations that will newly be constructed. The present research consists of the city centre of Erzincan and data were collected from the 112-110 Service Centre. To analyse the data in the ArcGIS, first, basic geographical data bases (map) were formed. Then, data were digitised in the same coordinate system and transferred into ArcGIS program. At the end of the research, the most appropriate ambulance and fire locations were recommended with the locational analysis functions of GIS
