Abstract
The purpose of this research is to design an architecture of early warning system with Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) and terrestrial infrastructure for improving a coverage of disaster information dissemination. In the proposed architecture, segments and information flow are identified in order to introduce an early warning system to target areas where there are no such kinds of public alert distribution. It can be adapted worldwide by combining GNSS satellite and terrestrial infrastructure. At the beginning of disaster, information will be sent from the agency via GNSS to terrestrial infrastructure, widely used such as a siren and a public vehicle, so that user can receive the disaster information even if the ground network has been damaged. We examined the effectiveness of the architecture in terms of redundancy, interoperability and multi-hazard response by Geographic Information System (GIS) simulation using an open-source format data of public bus in a coastal area in Japan. Results show that the coverage of information dissemination is improved so that the proposed architecture can be adapted to target areas as an early warning system.
