Abstract—This paper proposed approach of integrating supervision alarms and trains located on the map to support emergency management of urban rail transit network. The characteristics of dynamic passenger flow are analyzed to figure out transfer coordination and evacuation schema, related algorithm is developed. Information sharing is discussed and method of connection timetable optimization for metro and other traffic tools are introduced in hub. Explored technologies are applied in supervision and operation decision support platform, with introducing hierarchical structure for data exchange and applications. Implementation of the technical system shows its effectiveness in emergency treatment and rescue resource collocation in time.

Index Terms—Urban rail transit; emergency management; information sharing; supervision; decision support.
