Abstract

When disasters occur, data for damage is been collected through media such as the internet, smart-phones, telephones of government-related organizations and some civilians. However, an integrated system to accumulate and to manage the damage data is not completely constructed, and current disaster management systems have disadvantage sin regards to accuracy and cost in constructing spatial databases because of batch input processing with related documentations. We integrate dispersed data into our designed spatial database, such as photos transferred from smart-phones by civilians and other related information. We have developed an integrated damage spatial data management system to generate polygon type of damage areas based on the existing disaster history management system. In this system, managers can conveniently indicate damage areas with three different forms based on maps. General users and managers can provide the collected damage information and can search disaster history information.
