With increasing frequency and extent of disasters, the importance of prompt and accurate situation management is also increasing. Existing methods to support situation management decision-making can be applied only to specific situation management tasks in limited circumstances, making it difficult to support customized decision-making according to disaster situations. To address this problem, this paper proposed a variability-based situation management decision support method considering characteristics of disaster situations. The proposed method was based on the software product line engineering concept, constructing core information that could be configured by considering variabilities of disaster situation characteristics, thus providing situation management information from the core information according to disaster situations. This method could increase work efficiency by supporting systematic decision-making step by step based on the situation management work process according to the disaster situation. It could increase the speed and accuracy of decision-making by supporting decision-making automation. The feasibility of the method was validated by applying the method to situation management scenarios for different disaster situations.
