Short-Term Disaster Impacts on Transportation Infrastructure: A Review of Emerging Technologies and Approaches
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Transportation infrastructure (TI) plays a crucial role in sustaining the national economy and human well-being, particularly when subjected to natural disasters, such as floods, hurricanes, and earthquakes. Although multiple reviews covering resilience measurement metrics, resilience frameworks, disaster planning, and mitigation issues in TI have been published in recent years, none have systematically reviewed the impacts of short-term disasters on TI. To fill the gap, this study conducted a systematic literature review of the emerging technologies and approaches adopted to assess the TI impacts under short-term disasters. Our study revealed that Geographical Information Systems (GIS), graph models, remote sensing, and machine learning were the prevalent methods. Additionally, we synthesized these methods from three perspectives: disaster application, modeling approaches, and accessibility of input data. This paper contributes to the current body of knowledge by (1) reviewing the emerging technologies and approaches and their applications, (2) synthesizing the current state of knowledge and gaps, and (3) predicting research trends in the domain of short-term disaster impact on TI.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
