Abstract

Background/Objectives: Among the earthquake damage analysis systems developed so far, no system that could even respond from the perspective of managers in the event of a disaster.
 Methods/Statistical analysis: It was intended to ensure the convenience of managers by adding additional functions to the type of seismic damage analysis system. The existing system predicted and calculated the damage caused by the earthquake. In this paper, we present a way to help respond quickly after an earthquake by using Open API, etc. It includes functions that are already being implemented, as well as those that are being researched and developed.
 Findings: The existing seismic damage analysis system mostly calculates building damage caused by earthquakes, evaluates the amount of damage based on those figures, and produces figures related to refugees. But when an actual earthquake occurs, there is not much that managers can do right away with the system. This paper presents a strategic improvement plan by adding four additional functions to overcome the shortcomings of the existing system. This improvement plan is based on 3D Geographic Information System (GIS) and was intended to add Earthquake Excellence History, Vulnerable Groups Concentrated Area Information, Standard Operating Procedures, and Real-Time Evaluation Route. Earthquake Accuracy History function allows an intuitive decision on past similar records to be made. Vulnerable Groups Concentrated Area Information function helps you make quick judgments about the situation in the region where you need help first and foremost. Standard Operating Procedures are built into the system so that non-skilled people can easily perform it. Real-Time Evacuation Route feature allows administrators to have a quick insight into the path of refugees.
 Improvements/Applications: The improvement plan with additional functions in the system for calculating the output related to damage can be further improved through further implementation.

Highlights

  • In 2016, a 5.8-magnitude earthquake hit Gyeongju, South Korea

  • When setting the optimal evacuation route, the route is bypassed for reasons such as collapse or damage, or the route situation where rapid evacuation is impossible due to a surge in traffic is reflected in real-time

  • Earthquake Occurrence History, Vulnerable Groups Concentrated Area Information, Real-Time Evaluation Route functions to predict possible seismic damage. By utilizing information such as Open API, which was previously difficult to apply, various additional information is added to possible scenarios to promote solutions that can be effectively responded to by managers

Summary

Introduction

In 2016, a 5.8-magnitude earthquake hit Gyeongju, South Korea. The systems for seismic damage analysis include HAZUS-MH[1], SYNER-G[2], MCEER[3], ERGO[4], OpenQuake[5], and QuakeCore[6] These solutions were used to predict direct damage from earthquakes, but there were many shortcomings in responding to disaster situations from the perspective of managers.Based on 3D GIS, the purpose of this study was to upgrade the seismic disaster situation solution using additional functions, such as using Open API such as past earthquake occurrence information and information on vulnerable areas and applying pop-up standard operating procedures (SOP) to help managers make quick and intuitive decisions in case of an emergency in the B2B (Business to Business) environment
