Since the “Flood Fighting Act” was revised in 2001, the flood hazard map has positively been promoted by many local municipalities, and as of March 2002, 217 flood hazard maps had been produced. The effectiveness of flood hazard maps has already been verified in several cases. However, there are some issues on residents' understanding of flood hazard maps.
In this study, we review the effectiveness of flood hazard maps and issues on residents' understanding of them, and we examine the role that flood hazard maps serve. Then, we grasp the state of residents' recognition of flood hazard maps. Moreover, we analyze the effect of the explanation meeting of the flood hazard map on residents' recognition.
