7 Feature of the Great East Japan Earthquake Lessons learned from the Great East Japan Earthquake Four features of the Great East Japan Earthquake are shown in a time scale. Initial phase Emergency phase Recovery phase Earthquake Tsunami (1) Delay of evacuation (2) Destruction of infrastructure (4) Prolongation of the restoration Nuclear plant accident (3) Lack of measures to a nuclear plant accident Page 7 NEC Corporation 2012

8 Learning from the Great East Japan Earthquake <Lessons for strong information communication in disasters> Support for unexpected situation like infrastructural damages Communication functionality is maintained by rearranging routes flexibly Securing data integrity Support for wide areas beyond administrative districts Securing of agency services such as wide area assistance for distant staff members Securing ways to communicate with wide area evacuees Prompt and accurate understanding of whole situation Central consolidation of diversified data that lies scattered in every place and organization Arranging events in chronological order and grasping the situation accurately based on data Transmission of accurate information to disaster site Transmission of accurate information to the staff working on disaster site Transmission of information to citizens for appropriate actions Page 8 NEC Corporation 2012

9 Concept of New Disaster Information Communication System Model "More Resilient, More Robust, More Reliable" Central government Disaster information Damage information Weather information Images of site damages Records of measures etc. Victim support Disaster victim proof Support material management Lifeline information Remote consultation etc. Mobile screen Disaster mode operations menu is used Confirmation of images and maps etc. Municipal government Prefectural government Advanced data processing Big data Dynamic Real time Data integrity Resource flexibility Cloud platform Used outside prefecture Ad hoc connection Detour Different complex NW Open flow Disaster mode Virtual network Emergency mobile NW Software wireless Changing bands Residents Includes evacuees outside prefecture Information of people M2M Sensing Information of material Onsite staff Includes staff outside prefecture Problem: Requirement of cooperation between organizations Page 9 NEC Corporation 2012
