In this study, we proposed a system that can instantly estimate the quantity, composition and spatial distribution of disaster waste that was generated by inundation of river water flooding. Because all developed functions and mandatory databases were implemented on the online Google Colab, system users could estimate disaster waste generation status by only uploading an inundation map. There were no troublesome environment setting of each local computer, users didn't have to spend time configuring their computers during the chaos of a disaster. All data in database was copyright-free, so there were no restrictions on its use. We applied the proposed system for 2 inundation events (Nagano city in 2019 and Hitoyoshi city in 2020) aiming at evaluation, it could be demonstrated the system could output reasonable disaster waste quantity, composition, and spatial distribution of disaster waste immediately.
