Outline of Final Research Achievements

We divided all over Japan into the primary basin, secondary basin and other basin by using the geographic information systems (GIS). These data were stored in the cloud based GIS (virtual space on the Internet), and we created a system by which anyone can browse the data on PCs, tablets and smartphones. The GPS in the smartphone can immediately show the current position in the field, we know where we are in the basin. This system is possible to implement a comprehensive basin diagnosis in both indoor and field, by using various information in the basin, for example, ‘what kind of things and events exist there’ , ‘what kind of present conditions are population or the industry’ , and ‘what kind of things has happened in the past’
