Tsunami Disaster Response System using Inundation Forecast Map
A tsunami is a rarer natural phenomenon than other types of hazards such as typhoons and yellow sand phenomenon. People tend to forget about its danger after a tsunami disaster has passed and they become careless about disaster prevention and preparedness. Moreover, residents and tourists in general tend to be unaware of the fact that they are in an area at high risk of tsunami.
The frequency of large scale tsunamis is increasing world widely. The recent tsunamis, in Chile in February 2010 and in Japan on March 11th, 2011, caused tremendous casualties and damage. South Korea needs to develop a detailed response plan to tsunamis in preparation for such events.
National Disaster Management Institute (NDMI) has developed Tsunami Disaster Response System(TDRS) for 43 places at high risk of tsunami disasters, in order to facilitate immediate responses in case of tsunami.
The NDMI is planning to support the development of evacuation plans, using evacuation simulation programs and analyzing major tsunami risk areas and the predicted damage. The institute will develop a highly advanced model in order to strengthen disaster preparedness capacity through efficient delivery of disaster information. Discovering areas at high risk of tsunami that have had no past instances, and raising the residents¡¯ awareness of the tsunami risk, can increase the efficiency of disaster preparedness. When completed, the tsunami inundation forecast map project will provide a good foundation for disaster preparedness and risk reduction with accurate analysis of predicted tsunamis.
Main Purpose
It was necessary improvement according to result of survey mostly residents's sense lack for prevention of disaster and appeared carefully check or repair work for private facilities experienced person than inexperienced residents to prevent flood damage.
Function
Advanced Survey system for flood Preparedness and Small-river status consist of 58-item questionnaire, which was added 14-item for small-river organization and included 6- item basic data.
Advanced system for survey was expended nationally and added statics for result of each item or group questionnaire and various function, user interface and system screen improvement.
This system can be provide convenience to answerer and manager of system
Frequency Analysis Rainfall Data (FARD)
FARD(Frequency Analysis Rainfall Data) is an representative program for frequency analysis in South Korea. FARD development project was funded by National Disaster Management Institute (NDMI) and Hydro-Engineering Laboratory in Yonsei University developed FARD program. FARD includes frequency analysis, trend analysis, and change point detecting analysis. FARD has been applied in many practical fields such as water resource management, coastal engineering, and ocean engineering etc.
History of FARD
In 1998, FARD firstly was developed and published. It included five functions such as preliminary tests, parameter estimation, probability density function, cumulative distribution function depiction, and selection of appropriate distribution. In 2002, FARD was revised. FARD 2002 included graphic user interface (GUI) based on windows operation system. New distribution types were added. In 2006, FARD was revised again. Generalized logistic distribution was added and some errors were corrected. In 2012, FARD was developed for international version(in English). It includes trend analysis, change point detecting analysis, new distribution model, new goodness of fit test and confidence limits.
