Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Huge tsunami which considerably exceeds predicted or assumed level causes serious damages to human lives. Under the condition that we cannot predict the level of next event surely, we should analyze vulnerability of coastal area based on many simulation results in order to establish evacuation plan. In this study, we conducted a lot of tsunami numerical simulations and visualize the tsunami inundation vulnerability at west coast of Japan based on the results of numerical simulations. And we developed a system to provide the information for evacuation planning using GIS servers.
