Abstract
The research purpose is to promote of the return of research results on the natural disaster
risk study to local communities. Establish a database which will provide a web service for local
natural disaster-risk management practices. Research findings of natural science, engineering, and
social science from universities and research institutes and so on all over Japan are to be integrated
and combined within the database. This web service will facilitate the research finding distribution in
the proper form to be utilized by local natural disaster managers in Japan. In this paper, we search for
indices of the regional characteristics necessary to implement disaster prevention countermeasures
and study a method to extract these countermeasures and examples based on the indices. In addition,
we show the results and problems of this research and consider future Web services for regional
disaster prevention.
