Urban waterlogging disaster represented a serious threat to the residents and the traffic. For the purpose of drilling, the wargame excise is introduced to the residents’ emergency evacuation in urban waterlogging disaster. As an essential component of wargame, the chessboard (map) is an important tool for the study of deduction and command training. In this paper, the research focus on the methods of generating wargame map based upon vector map data, from the viewpoints of mathematic foundation as well as quantitative treatments of point, line and plane for the map composed by regular hexagonal grids. In addition, a numerical simulation model of waterlogging was built to correlate and locate the simulation results of flooded streets, emergency organizations and wargame map, so as to the comprehensive map of the emergency evacuation of residents for urban waterlogging disaster was drawn. The conclusion of the paper suggests that provide a low-cost drilling platform for emergency management agency of urban waterlogging by assessing high-risk events, evaluating and finding out shortcomings in the emergency plan.
