The Flow_zone attribute provides an identification number for each evacuation flow zone. The actual value is arbitrary; the intention is to allow a user to differentiate flow zones in order to more clearly see the larger evacuation regime for a region. Flow_zone IDs link with the corresponding Evacuation Route feature class Flow_zone IDs.
The time, in seconds, after the Cascadia Subduction Zone earthquake when the first wave reaches the point of safety for each evacuation flow zone. The first wave arrival is defined as the time at which tsunami flow depth reaches more than 0.5 ft. See the text from this open-file report for a discussion of tsunami wave arrival data and a complete map of wave arrival times for the region.
The wave arrival time, in seconds, for each evacuation zone minus 10 minutes to account for the time in which earthquake shaking takes place, as well as human disorientation, and the time required to evacuate buildings. It is these values that were used to calculate Beat the wave (BTW) evacuation speeds. See the text from this open-file report for a discussion of evacuation delay.
This feature class contains an identification number linking each zone with its evacuation routes as well as the time of tsunami wave arrival time (using the XXL1 tsunami scenario) at each zone safety destination.
We evaluated pedestrian evacuation in the Nehalem Bay area of Tillamook County, Oregon in the event of a local tsunami generated by an earthquake on the Cascadia subduction zone (CSZ). Our analyses focused on a maximum-considered CSZ tsunami event covering 100% of potential variability, termed XXL1 and generated by a magnitude 9.1 earthquake. This feature class shows the nearest safety destination for every point in the inundation zone (on the road and trail network) assuming all non-retrofitted bridges within the inundation zone fail due to earthquake shaking. See the text from this Open-file Report O-20-07 for technical information on mapping methods and a discussion of results and interpretation.
The purpose of this data is to provide local government with a quantitative assessment of pedestrian evacuation in order to evaluate mitigation options such as evacuation route improvements, better wayfinding, land use planning actions, and potential vertical evacuation options.

This project was funded by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) through the National Tsunami Hazard Mitigation Program under award No. NA18NWS4670076.
All attributes were checked using automated QAQC tools designed specifically for tsunami data. Attributes were also reviewed visually in ArcGIS.
The following topology checks were performed and any errors were resolved: Must Be Single Part and Must Not Overlap.
This feature class provides the nearest safety destination for every point in the inundation zone along all road, trail, and beach networks (per local government review) for the Nehalem Bay area of Tillamook County, Oregon. This is defined as the area from Neakahnie Beach in the north down to mouth of the Nehalem River in the south. To the east it extends slightly upstream of the MacDonald Dike Rd bridge on the North Fork of the Nehalem River, and slightly upstream of the Highway 53 bridge on the Nehalem River.
Horizontal positional accuracy is very good because evacuation flow zones are derived from path distance results.

This feature class was generated using Esri ArcGIS 10.7 and Esri ArcPro 2.5 software. The path distance tool uses geospatial algorithms to calculate the most efficient route from each point in the evacuation zone to safety. Inputs include sub-sampled lidar and a road and trail network. Additional ArcGIS tools used to convert path distance results to evacuation flow zones include several from the Hydrology Toolbox and the backlink raster. Most of the methodology for these processes are established in Priest et al, 2016 and Gabel et al, 2018b. The source tsunami modeling data can be found in Priest et al, 2013a and Priest et al 2013b. See the text from this open-file report for technical information on mapping methods.
