      <abstract>The travel time map was generated using the Pedestrian Evacuation Analyst model from the USGS.  The travel time analysis uses ESRI's Path Distance tool to find the shortest distance across a cost surface from any point in the hazard zone to a safe zone.  This cost analysis considers the direction of movement and assigns a higher cost to steeper slopes, based on a table contained within the model.  The analysis also adds in the energy costs of crossing different types of land cover, assuming that less energy is expended walking along a road than walking across a sandy beach. To produce the time map, the evacuation surface output from the model is grouped into 1-minute increments for easier visualization.  The times in the attribute table represent the estimated time to travel on foot to the nearest safe zone at the speed designated in the map title.  The bridge or nobridge name in the map title identifies whether bridges were represented in the modeling or whether they were removed prior to modeling to estimate the impact on travel times from earthquake-damaged bridges.</abstract>
      <purpose>In the U.S. Pacific Northwest, coastal communities are threatened by tsunamis associated with Cascadia subduction zone earthquakes.  Maps of evacuation travel times within tsunami-hazard zones can be used by emergency managers and community planners to identify where to focus evacuation training and hazard education.</purpose>

The land cover base layer will be first on the list followed by the ancillary layers: wetlands, water, roads, and buildings. The tool will merge the layers in the list order from top to bottom; so, layers such as water bodies should be merged before a roads layer to keep any bridges in the roads layer (i.e., higher on the list) from being overlaid by a polygon in the water layer. In addition, the ancillary layers must be assigned a specific speed-conservation value (SCV), which represents the fraction of a maximum speed that could be achieved across the given land-cover type. If a standard LULC type is selected, its default SCV value will appear in the corresponding Default SCV Value field and can be edited, if desired.</procdesc>
