Summary:

 

 

 

 

Network description

There are 44 demand vertices in Chile clustered in groups of close- by villages where facilities cannot be opened and 3 zero demand vertices outside Chile as the only potential facility locations

There are 6 demand vertices where facilities cannot be opened, 5 zero demand vertices that arc potential facility locations and 3 zero demand vertices that are not potential facility locations

All vertices arc demand vertices in every scenario and are all potential facility locations. All scenario hap-pen with equal probability p=0.1

All vertices arc potential facility locations, and in each scenario a few of them have non-zero demand.

Expected proportion of aid that remains usable at a potential facility location
