Abstract
In this study, we develop and propose the Safety-Behavior-Indicative Flood Hazard Map. This is the new-type flood hazard map that can surely indicate and instruct the safety behavior in flood disaster according to a dwelling condition and a flooding condition without requiring a readers' good understanding of the risk-information published in the hazard map and a scrupulous risk-communication between residents and the government. In this paper, we describe the significance, the method and the development of the Safety-Behavior-Indicative Flood Hazard Map, and measure an effect of the map on the reduction in residents' unsafe evacuation in flood disaster.
