Rural Area Shelter Development Study.
Abstract
This report describes the development and field testing of a procedure for estimating the total shelter potential by county in host areas defined for Crisis Relocation Plans (CRP). Shelter estimates are made by projecting population and construction data from the time of the last shelter survey in the county. The shelter yield expected to be found by an update of the various shelter survey programs is then estimated based on the projected construction activity. The procedure has been formulated into a computer program. Actual survey data for one North Carolina county and ten counties in Georgia were used as test cases of the methodology.
