Landslide disasters occur suddenly, causing multiple socio-economic burdens on developing countries. Preserving and enhancing adapting capacity of locals to landslide is a sustainable solution. Few villages are still sustainably surviving dealing with the damages caused by landslides adopting local knowledge subsequently, passing next generations. Therefore, investigating social capital features their influence transfer essential for preserving these valuable systems. Thus, this study...

We propose an estimation method of water quality a river based on convolutional neural networks (CNNs), semantic segmentation method, and new dataset. Since floods are serious problems for riversides, various technologies have been proposed as safety system. So far, measurement methods level one systems. However, these cannot estimate flood which is caused by debris flows because the does not follow increasing level. To floods, more important information become muddy before floods. Hence, we...

Natural disasters are unforeseen events which occur at hydrologic, geologic, and atmospheric origins.The Policy-makers still rely on mitigation strategies based scientific approaches.However, many scholars had emphasized the importance of incorporating local knowledge related practices for disaster risk management.In that context, this study investigates in adaptation to mitigate landslides situations by studying a village Sri Lanka is located central region vulnerable landslide...

Multilateral knowledge development is proposed as a perspective for risk communication to increase disaster preparedness at community level. This participatory management process where roles of experts are shared by citizens, nonprofit organizations and researchers in order deal with problem much uncertainty. As these three agents interact share ideas on local vulnerability, the can find their own mitigation measures. Urban diagnosis reasonable strategy support this process. In paper, method...

This paper proposes a method for classifying the river state (a flood risk exists or not) from surveillance camera images by combining patch-based processing and convolutional neural network (CNN). Although CNN needs much training data, number of is limited because does not frequently occur. Also, include objects that are irrelevant to risk. Therefore, direct use may work well classification. To overcome this limitation, develops adjusting By increasing data via patch segmentation an image...

This study shows that one of the benefits networking disaster relief volunteer organizations is to provide an opportunity for knowledge sharing and platform creation. Also, investigates appropriate functions with which equip expected network organization assumed in Japan. For this purpose, American case—the National Voluntary Organizations Active Disaster (NVOAD)—and a Japanese case—disaster volunteerism after Kobe Earthquake—were considered. The case yielded three main findings. NVOAD...

Rural depopulation in mountain communities is now well acknowledged as one of the salient challenges faced by Japan which made them more susceptible to landslide disasters with intense weather conditions. The degradation traditional culture due rapid mountainous areas leads permanent disappearance best local knowledge for disasters. This study attempts investigate community’s hazard knowledge. research applied structural questionnaires and informal interviews data collection. Firstly,...

The paper discusses the relativity between household-based earthquake preparedness behaviors and indirect disaster experience in their inhabited area or witnessed through media. A questionnaire survey has been carried out to know what kind of (in distance hazard type) triggers countermeasures. Based on ratio initially adoptions before experiences triggered after-the-fact, result shows that (1) disasters occurred a neighborhood (2) low-cost countermeasures sense number adoptions. Local...

Identifying and overcoming various bottlenecks of disaster risk communication is considered an essential problem for the betterment early warning quick response. In this paper, a systematic method formalizing analyzing these proposed. Two typhoon disasters are focused on field surveys conducted. Several conceptual models have been The C-E-D model can be used to analyze information processing within one agent. It also extended inter-organizational problems among different agents...

This paper presents a hierarchical clustering method for natural disaster images. By displaying images with similar categories, users are able to intuitively understand their surrounding environment and potential risks such as flood sediment damage. Because there unstructured without textual descriptions, that does not use features is necessary. The contribution of this study newly develop hierarchically cluster using only visual features. Experimental results available from the research...

本論の目的は，各地方の公共事業の担い手である中小建設業者が，災害時のボランティア活動の担い手と連携することにより，CSR（企業の社会的責任）を果たせる可能性があることを，先進事例から検討することである．まず，欧州で生まれたCSRの本来的な定義について確認し，建設業における「社会問題と本業との統合」は何を意味するかについて考察する．次いで，災害ボランティア活動は地元密着型の中小建設業との親和性が高いことを示し，建設業が従来行ってきた「災害協定」に基づく復旧工事の実施による社会貢献だけでなく，災害時の被災地支援活動を行うNPO等支援団体や社会福祉協議会等との積極的な連携により，より直接的に市民の信頼を獲得できる可能性があることを述べる．

For flood disaster prevention, methods to analyze physical data such as water levels of rivers and cyber Twitter posts have been proposed. If there are correlations between the cyber-physical about river state, utilization would be beneficial for supporting refuge people when risk increases. This paper attempts clarify (water level gauge posts) Typhoon Hagibis hits Shinano in Japan on October 2019. Because greatly decrease late night many sleep, it is difficult accurately estimate data. To...

わが国では政府開発援助（ODA）等を通じたインフラ整備技術の一層の海外展開が期待されている．一方で，海外展開の推進は建設企業にとって厳しい場合もあることも指摘されており，政府にも建設企業のニーズや見通しに合った的確な支援が求められる．本研究では，わが国の建設企業の海外進出状況を整理した上で，インタビュー調査およびアンケート調査を通じてインフラ建設事業の海外展開に対する建設企業の意識と政府機関等の見解を把握し，今後の政府支援のあり方を検討する．結果として，苦労して海外展開している企業も見られ，企業が負担の少ない形で海外進出できる環境づくりには，各企業が持つ強みを組み合わせて海外事業を受注できる仕組みを確立することが有効である可能性などが示唆された．

道の駅は本来の3つの機能に加え，地域交流の促進としての役割が求められている．近年，道の駅はそれ自体が目的地となるように魅力度を高める傾向にあるが，地域交流の促進の観点からは，利用者が道の駅で情報提供を受け，その後に周辺地域へ立ち寄る周遊行動が重要であると考える．本研究では，道の駅利用後の周遊行動に着目するため，個人トリップの走行軌跡が把握可能であるETC2.0より得た道の駅利用者の周遊行動の軌跡を分析し，周遊行動をしたサンプルの比率を周遊率と定義して，道の駅から周辺への立ち寄りやすさを指標化し，道の駅の立地及び施設特性とのロジスティック回帰分析を行った．分析結果より，道の駅のある市町村内の観光スポットの観光入込客数・数・近さや，飲食店事業所数，電子掲示板が周遊率に影響を与えていることが分かった．

本研究の目的は，災害資料の集合的記憶化に関与するアーカイブコミュニティの拡大である．既存のディジタルアーカイブコンテンツは，資料の掲載をアーカイブコンテンツ内に制限している．そのため，ユーザの資料閲覧の機会を低下させ，アーカイブコミュニティの拡大を妨げていた．そこで，著者らはソーシャルメディアを用いて，資料の共有から伝播に至るユーザアクティビティを活性化させるアーカイブ発信を行った．著者らの提案する発信手法は，アーカイブ資料をソーシャルメディアTwitter内に直接掲載することで，ソーシャルメディアとアーカイブの境をなくし，ユーザ間の情報共有と資料閲覧を同時に行うことを可能にした．実装例による情報伝播について分析した結果，ユーザアクティビティの連鎖的な伝播によって，コミュニティの参加者数は増加し続けていた．このことから，実装例によってアーカイブコミュニティの形成が促されることがわかった．本稿では，実装例の解説を通して著者らのアーカイブの発信手法について述べる．

A concept of a communicative survey is reexamined with the works by Habermas and planning theorists in 1980’s 90’s. Author focuses on roles planners process, states their role to derive practitioners’ unintended consequences, have reflective dialogue based it, lead next step community building. case distant refugees attached verify it.

In late 2012, when international relations had deteriorated in NE Asia, 295 Japanese students at ten universities were surveyed. response to various questions about the region, opinions varied five arenas: travel, foreign language, history, current affairs and popular culture. Over 100 raised themselves, wanting learn more Korea, Japan or relationship. We make two suggestions, as additions existing education programs, deepen Korean-Japanese mutual understanding.

This is an ongoing study investigating how the NPO Takatori Community Center has been supporting foreign residents in community since Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake. The authors have, so far, interviewed its three directors and one staff member. Some of findings are: importance oriented activities, joint ventures plural leaders, multicultural mediating power.
