Abstract
A plan of tsunami hazard mitigation is discussed for a business establishment in the predicted inundation area of Nankai earthquake tsunami, based on a public hazard map. That is compared with the one based on a numerical simulation. It is difficult to obtaine the detailed inundation depth and arrival time from the public hazard map. Thus, effective countermeasure may not be taken by the business establishment. It results the large damage of the business establishment. On the contrary, the detailed information is obtained by using numerical simulation. It is possible for the business establishment to make an effective plan for hazard reduction. Thus, use of numerical simulation is effective for planning of tsunami hazard mitigation and business continuity planning.
