| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In the present study, I investigated the damage situation of buildings and their locations from pre-modern earthquake on the basis of historical literature whose reliability were reviewed. I then estimated a seismic intensity at each location taking construction histories (e.g., elapsed year since constructed, histories of repairs) and characteristics of buildings (e.g., earthquake capacity) into consideration. According to the estimated seismic intensity, I created seismic intensity maps using the geographic information system. These intensity maps are more reliable than before, because an estimated intensity reflects the reality of each damaged building.
