Earthquake disaster frequently happens in Shizuoka Prefecture and it is commonly predicted that a giant earthquake(Tokai Earthquake) could occur in the near future. When a giant earthquake happens, extensive damage of lifelines will be expected. It is considered that the collection of damage information and the establishment of a communication network system are very important in order to restore lifelines quickly. And geographic information system(GIS) might playa very important role to grasp the spatial information of lifeline damage in a natural disaster. The authors' group had a research project to study a lifeline restoration support system with image processing and ad hoc networking in a natural disaster. The objectives of this presentation are to introduce our project and to show some results of our study. The authors finally constructed the GIS for the integration of damage information acquired by image processing and ad hoc networking.

If a disaster occurs in the underground like subway, disaster response system should minimize the casualties. It must quickly guide passengers to a safe evacuation route. But sometimes the system does not work properly. And then they need distributed disaster response system which make decision autonomously. In this study, we proposed the evacuation route analysis and induction algorithms for creationg passenger evacuation route and offering optimal evacuation route.

Recent buildings are complicated and tends to be connected each other and even underground spaces. Although the risk of disaster is increasing, it does not provide training or induction refuge. In this paper, we propose evacuation induction system using directional speaker, for providing persons in danger with useful information on the disaster situation and to evacuate people effectively as an accurate and rapid evacuation guidance.

As remote sensing technologies are evolving, and more satellites are orbited, the demand for using satellite data for disaster monitoring is rapidly increasing. Although natural and social disasters have been monitored using satellite data, constraints on establishing an integrated satellite-based near real-time disaster monitoring system have not been identified yet, and thus a novel framework for establishing such system remains to be presented. This research identifies constraints on establishing satellite data-based near real-time disaster monitoring systems by devising and testing a new conceptual framework of disaster monitoring, and then presents a feasible disaster monitoring system that relies mainly on acquirable satellite data. Implementing near real-time disaster monitoring by satellite remote sensing is constrained by technological and economic factors, and more significantly, it is also limited by interactions between organisations and policy that hamper timely acquiring appropriate satellite data for the purpose, and institutional factors that are related to satellite data analyses. Such constraints could be eased by employing an integrated computing platform, such as Amazon Web Services(AWS), which enables obtaining, storing and analysing satellite data, and by developing a toolkit by which appropriate satellites'sensors that are required for monitoring specific types of disaster, and their orbits, can be analysed. It is anticipated that the findings of this research could be used as meaningful reference when trying to establishing a satellite-based near real-time disaster monitoring system in any country.

Disasters are subject to occur repeatedly ever year. Disaster relief donations are paid in terms of scale of damage. Empirical studies on this issue have not been substantially implemented, in particular, on perceptions by disaster victims and civil servants of local government. Disaster victims and civil servants of local government are seen as the key groups for the support system of disaster relief donations as the former is actual beneficiaries and the latter is to investigate concerned data on decision making for support system. In the regard, in the study, problems and improving directions for more efficient support system are analysed and suggested based on the survey of perception of disaster victims and civil servants of local government. Conclusion and some policy implications are also included in the concluding section.

Disaster sign data is confirmed data by the experts to the collected data from web and users. In this paper, we focused to make the risk scores to the data based on ontology technology. To analyse the data, first of all, we defined the ontological structure for 4 kinds of disaster types which consists of the bridges, workplaces, buildings, and walls. Base on the ontologies, collected the accidents examples, and then extract the risk rules from the examples. The rules are adjusted with frequencies and weights, and managed to the ontology DB. The rules apply to the disaster sign data, and then calculates the risk scores. It plays role of the index to the risk rates. The disaster sign data management system was implemented and the rules were verified to the system. Because the quality of the risk scores to the disaster sign data depends on the data of the accidents examples's qualities, we assure that the system's performance will be monotonic increasing following up the data upgrades. Continuously, data management is needed. Also the quality control of the rules are needed.

Purpose: This review aims to provide an understanding of the UN recommendations regarding school disaster safety in the context of Korea's school safety system. Methods: Relevant literature and reports on the UN's school disaster safety were investigated. On basis of the analysis, this review closely examined how the UN school disaster safety had been developed and what it had proposed. Results: Major findings from this review regarding the UN school disaster safety were to: 1) utilize "all-hazards approach"; 2) focus on "community-based approach"; 3) explore "education for sustainable development"; and 4) emphasize "informal disaster safety education." Conclusion: This review on the UN school disaster safety may give a critical implication to Korea's school safety education.

Recently, large scale natural disasters such as floods and typhoons due to climate change have been occurring all over the world causing severe damages. Among the various efforts to reduce and recover damages, recently, advanced information technology and remote sensing techniques are applied in disaster management. In this study, a real-time automated damage estimation system using information technology and spatial imagery was developed to accomplish prompt and accurate disaster damage estimation. This system is able to estimate the damage amounts of public facilities such as roads, rivers, bridges automatically through spatial imageries including ground based digital images, aerial photos, satellite images of disaster sites. Based on these spatial imageries, the damage amounts are analyzed in the Web-GIS based analysis system. Consequently, the digital damage reports such as digital disaster information sheets and damage maps can be made promptly and accurately. This system can be a useful tool to carry out prompt disaster damage estimation and efficient disaster recovery.

Due to the recent surge in natural disasters, with rising social concerns, investment on research & development (R&D) project in natural disaster mitigation area is continuously increasing. However, current R&D performance management system of natural disaster mitigation area does not properly reflect characteristics and social ripple effects of R&D projects. It is indicated that mainly due to the current performance index consists of easy-quantification factors and the performance evaluation system adopts simple aggregation method. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to develop new performance evaluation system considering characteristics and social ripple effects of natural disaster mitigation R&D projects. To this ends, this study derived 3-dimensional performance measurement index through literature review and natural disaster mitigation R&D projects analysis. Finally, based on the derived performance measurement index, this study suggested new and effective performance evaluation system for natural disaster mitigation R&D projects.
