From disaster management research field, two geo-spatial data platform are introduced. SIP4D (Shared Information Platform for Disaster Management) is the first realized geospatial information-sharing platform for disaster management in Japan. Through some disaster response, usefulness has been proven. Activities for connecting disaster response organization's information to SIP4D has been continuing with “disaster information hub” by Cabinet office. On the other hand, immediate sharing system for satellite remote sensing data for disaster management has started since 2018. In 2019, information products using Sentinel-1 SAR data and geospatial information were created and shared. Remote sensing data has big potential in early phase of disaster response.
