Development of Risk-Adaptive Information Managemant System for Local Government and its Application to Disaster Drill in Nagata Ward, Kobe City

Abstract

Through the experience with disaster and recovery support activities obtained as a result of the Great Hanshin Awaji Earthquake, the information systems to be used in times of disaster must be able to adapt the following three risks: 1) hardware & infrastructure,2)database, and 3) human resources.To achieve these capabilities, we have proposed, as a concept, the Risk-Adaptive Regional Management Information System (RARMIS). Then, to actualize this concept, we have developed DiMSIS, a multi-dimensional spatial temporal information system.Here we will report on effective information processing in emergencies using a case study for the disaster drill in Nagata ward, Kobe city.
