- We formulate and solve two resource allocation problems motivated by a preparedness question of emergency response services. First, we consider the assignment of vehicles to stations, and, in a second step, assign crews to vehicles. In both cases, we work in a minimax framework and define the objective function for a spatial catchment area as the total risk in this area per resource unit allocated to it. The solutions are explicit and can be calculated in practice by a greedy algorithm that successively allocates a resource unit to an area having maximal relative risk, with suitable tie breaker rules. The approach is illustrated on a data set of incidents reported to the Twente Fire Brigade.
