Outline of Final Research Achievements

This research was done to develop a system to obtain global information from spatially or temporally local sensing data. We applied this trial to visualize the global damages suffered from the 2011.3.11 Earthquake and Tsunami and their recovery processes. For this purpose, we constructed a large scale data-base of city street images at the Tohoku coastal areas continuously obtained by us with an all-directional camera mounted by a special car. The total amount of the image data became 55 Tera-bytes. Then, from it, we analyzed what were lost globally and reconstructed in the recovery processes. The system constructed in this research provides techniques to figure out the global information from a relatively small number of local observations.
