Abstract

We studied the guide-map of earthquake emergency management for individuals, which were published by Department of Management Management of each Ward Office in Tokyo. We conducted two kinds of Questiormaire surveys,one was for office stuff who managed the publication of guide map, and another was for residents in two ward-areas who used guide map. As results, both the gap between demands of residents and actual maps and the defense of Information contents among ward-areas are clarified. On the bases of these surveys, We propose two kinds of new guide maps for urban earthquake disaster. One is a guide map in scale of 1:5,000 for residents to defend their town and people through rescue, fire-fighting, evacuation and other activities by themselves, which informed the details of districts and facilities.Another guide map is in scale of 1:50,000, which is for commuters who are difficult to come home because of long distance to home to walk through the congested ward-areas.
