Kyoto University and Fuji Disaster Prevention Security Co., Ltd. have started joint research through industry-academia collaboration with the aim of improving the accuracy of the giant earthquake prediction system "S-CAST" that detects earthquake-preceding phenomena before the occurrence of a giant earthquake such as the Nankai Trough earthquake.
The giant earthquake prediction system "S-CAST" developed by Fuji Disaster Prevention and Security Co., Ltd. analyzes phenomena such as electromagnetic phenomena and geophysics before the occurrence of an earthquake in real time for 24 hours, and causes an earthquake several days to about 10 days ago. Those that give advance notice of the outbreak.Through repeated operations and research, it has contributed to the utilization of advance BCP (Business Continuity Plan) by providing the hypocenter area and the estimated period, although it is not a pinpoint.
By performing GPS-TEC analysis (analyzing the number of electrons in the ionosphere) using Kyoto University's technology in collaboration with Kyoto University, it is possible to detect abnormalities in real time and effectively utilize them for BCP measures and final evacuation decisions. It will be like. By the end of 2017, Fuji Disaster Prevention Security Co., Ltd. will set up 3 unique observation points and Kyoto University will set up 2 points, and a data server dedicated to real-time analysis will be built in Kyoto University.
Regarding earthquake countermeasures, the government announced disaster prevention measures to issue warning and caution information from November 2017, 11, in connection with the Nankai Trough earthquake, which is feared to be particularly seriously damaged.However, the current situation is that the local government has not decided whether to call for evacuation in advance without calling for evacuation, and the local government is responsible for the disaster prevention plan with the temporary information sent from the Japan Meteorological Agency. It must be used effectively.
It is a judicial precedent in the 2011 Tohoku-Pacific Ocean Earthquake that not only local governments but also companies may be held liable (disaster avoidance obligation) in the event of human or property damage. It is clarified by.
Therefore, by improving the accuracy of "S-CAST" in collaboration with Kyoto University, it can be used for measures against people who have difficulty returning home, measures against large fires, and measures against large tsunamis in a huge earthquake that does not know when it will occur. It can be done realistically and realistically, and is expected to lead to disaster mitigation / disaster prevention and further reduction of trial risk.
