The present invention relates to a method for operating a disaster safe smart shelter, and more particularly, to a method for operating a disaster safe smart shelter for effectively operating a disaster safe smart shelter installed outdoors to enable users to evacuate from various social and natural disasters and to additionally provide various complex functions.
In recent years, as interest in large and small social and natural disasters such as fine dust, heat waves, and cold waves have increased, it is urgent to prepare countermeasures for citizens' health and welfare. Therefore, various countermeasures are being sought for such social and natural disasters, but none of them have been effective so far.
In addition, in general, stops of public transportation for ground transportation such as buses, taxis, and ground railways may be often installed outdoors, and passengers using public transportation are directly exposed to such outdoor environments.
Therefore, passengers cannot help but suffer damage from various social and natural disasters as described above, and in the case of seasons such as summer or winter, passengers on waiting have no choice but to endure heat or cold.
In addition, since people will wait with an umbrella supported in case of rain or snowfall, a waiting line is longer than usual, especially in the case of a bus stop with many passengers, and clothes, shoes, etc., are wet from moisture while standing by to cause discomfort.
Therefore, it is necessary to utilize structures that may provide various functions such as a waiting station for public transportation while allowing citizens to evacuate from various social and natural disasters to protect their health.
In particular, when such a structure is used as a waiting station for public transportation such as a bus, it is necessary to provide various types of information so that many passengers may improve the convenience of using the bus in line with the latest trend. However, since waiting stations in operation so far provide only simple arrival information for public transportation, there is a great need for improvement.
In addition, since multiple buses frequently stop at the same time at a bus stop, at a bus stop with high congestion, a lot of effort is required to move passengers to a stop position of a bus they need to board. Therefore, accidents may occur due to physical contact with other passengers while moving.
Therefore, a method for solving these problems is required.
