Study on Methods for Organizing Social Infrastructure Information to Respond to Wide-area Large-scale Disasters

Abstract

In this study, the supply routes of waterworks in the Nishi-mikawa region of Aichi Prefecture were graphed and applied to ongoing discussions with higher-level administrators to consider collaboration in the event of a disaster. As a result, concrete proposals for cooperation were presented, and it was shown that the following three points were useful in the materialization of regional cooperation: (1) continuity of themes, (2) dialogue with upper management principal, and (3) visualization of cooperation targets through graphing efforts. In addition, with a view to applying the graph to the consideration of more effective collaboration measures, a person in charge of disaster prevention at a local government indicated that the graph could serve as a basic document for collaboration.
