Determining evacuation routes inside buildings is important for search and rescue activities of people who may be trapped when a disaster occurs. This work aims to develop a methodology that uses Building Information Modeling (BIM) geometry data and applies the multicriteria analysis for the prioritization of areas as part of the potential evacuation routes in the building. The information that results from the analysis is used as additional heuristic data in the execution of a variant of the A* pathifinding algorithm. The initial results allow comparing feasible evacuation routes in simulation scenarios and establishing the importance of the application of multicriteria analysis.
