Unlike normalized flow of people and cross-regional transportation of goods, emergency transportation tasks have high requirements for timeliness and accuracy, which in turn places extremely high requirements on organization of transportation resources. Current paper uses modern information technologies such as online information and GIS to coordinate emergency transportation tasks. While considering the simultaneous delivery of portable equipment and materials, aiming at the fastest arrival of emergency rescue personnel in batches, current research studies the integration of batches and multimodal transportation. At the same time, the impact of scheduled timetables of trains and flights on the transportation actions is studied as well. Research shows that, aircrafts may play important roles in emergency transportation under catastrophe scene in China.
