1. A computer-implemented method of escape route management for a property, the property populated with a hardware controller in communication with a plurality of smart devices, each of the plurality of smart devices configured to monitor various conditions associated with the property, the method comprising:

  • receiving, by the hardware controller via a first communication network, a first set of sensor data from at least one of the plurality of smart devices, the first set of sensor data indicative of an emergency situation necessitating evacuation;

    analyzing, by one or more processors, the first set of sensor data to determine that an individual is located on the property, the first set of sensor data indicating a location of the individual;

    based upon the first set of sensor data and the location of the individual, determining, by the one or more processors, an escape route for the individual to evacuate an area made unsafe by the emergency situation;

    determining, by the one or more processors, a first set of actions to be performed by a first portion of the plurality of smart devices to ensure safety of the escape route, the first set of actions including an action that contains the emergency situation; and

    directing or controlling, by the hardware controller, the first portion of the plurality of smart devices to perform the first set of actions to facilitate the individual escaping the emergency situation using the escape route.
