2018/04/11 AAG Annual Meeting 2018 @ New Orleans 3 After the Earthquake… (2017.02) Ø One of the things that we learned from the earthquake disaster was the disclosure of designated emergency evacuation sites. Ø The need to widely open data was reconfirmed Designated Emergency Evacuation Sites Designated Shelter (school, community centers, etc.) http://www.gsi.go.jp/bousaichiri/hinanbasho.html

2018/04/11 AAG Annual Meeting 2018 @ New Orleans 4 However… Ø For example, many of the tsunami flooded data (polygons) cannot be used as open data because only 27 prefectures are maintained. Ø Citizens are worried about harmful rumors, and examples of removing signs are beginning to appear in Shizuoka City. http://nlftp.mlit.go.jp/ksj/gml/datalist/KsjTmplt-A40.html http://www.at-s.com/news/article/social/shizuoka/bosai/472680.html Source: Shizuoka Newspaper Company

2018/04/11 AAG Annual Meeting 2018 @ New Orleans 13 Top 200 iOS Disaster App Trends • Many applications are made by private companies; the category of news and lifestyle are highly reliable. ØThe apps in this category concern mainly official information/message boards. ØOf the top-20 apps, only 4 apps use geographical information. (mainly evacuation place information) ØDevelopment will increase after 2012, with 45 apps published in 2014. • An increasing number of local governments publish their own apps. ØThere are no keywords for disaster prevention; some applications are integrated into other GIS data and become one function (cf. G-motty: http://www.g-motty.net/).

2018/04/11 AAG Annual Meeting 2018 @ New Orleans 24 Conclusion: Citizen-based (Civic Tech) Development for Disaster App Trends • Many applications are created from the user's perspective, and many of the spatial information is included. – Utilization for disaster education – Many applications related to earthquake and tsunami disasters • Open data related to disaster prevention have limitations, so the implemented functions are similar. – The bias of the theme tends to be larger than the application created by the company. However, there is also the possibility of responding to local issues. – The response to another type of disaster (cf. heavy snow: Code for Kanazawa) began with citizens making data and apps n The need for more data & disaster prevention literacy are important for the future…
