EVACUATION MUTUAL SUPPORT SYSTEM BY USING MOBILE UNIT DURINGDISASTER AND ITS APPLICATION REFUGE EXPERIMENTIN a SMALL AREA

Abstract

 We proposed a new system “Emergency Mutual Support System (EMSS)” to support mutual evacuation during disaster. EMSS was proposed as a mobile application in which everyone could use everywhere easily. When EMSS also automatically start during emergency, we collect positional information of the person from the mobile units mutually. The positional data and moving speed can be shared in each mobile unit, and evacuation behavior of the person can be comprehended. The mobile user can select a suitable evacuation route depending on the situation.
 In this study, the implementation experiment of pairing using EMSS was planed (carried out, performed) in a small area.
 An evacuation experiment was also carried out using an existing application for friend searching.
