Reconstruction from 2011 tsunami

We have been building a better and more resilient future for communities affected by the March 2011 earthquake/tsunami, based on Kokusai Kogyo’s social infrastructure development experience.



Level National/Regional Level Local Level
Disaster risk reduction
  • -3D laser surveying (DMC, LP)
  • -Various simulations, ocean short-wave radar
  • -Emergency communication systems DRR education
  • -Slope/dam monitoring/management

3D laser scanning (tunnel)
  • -Property tax/cadastral surveys
  • -GIS to manage. waterworks, sewage, road register
  • -Hazard maps, DRR planning
  • -Spatial information, surveying data archive sales

Geographic information system (GIS)
 
Immediate aftermath
  • -Aerial photography (nadir, oblique), Photo interpretation/analysis
  • -Detailed tsunami field surveys, CG tsunami simulations ? rapid inundation analysis

  • -Local survey research
  • -Local govt. administrative support
  • -Survey of collapsed/washed away houses


Local survey research
 
Recovery
  • -Detailed disaster surveys, reconstruction planning
  • -Making maps for reconstruction planning
  • -Disaster waste surveys, making disposal plans
  • -Detailed disaster surveys, reconstruction planning







Waste disposal plan
  • -Survey of collapsed/washed away houses
  • -Management of house demolishing
  • -Waste surveys/developing waste disposal plans
  • -Supporting integration/use/evaluation of administrative data
  • -Developing/managing geographic information systems (GIS)
  • -Assisting community consensus building for reconstruction utilizing 3D simulations

  • -Recovery of industry (creating jobs for those affected)


Bridge survey/design
  • -Urban reconstruction plans (DRR/land use/urban plans)
  • -Development of basic urban infrastructure (land readjustment/victim relocation projects)
  • -Administrative support
  • -Development of integrated databases for reconstruction
  • -Renewable energy adoption for emergency power backup
  • -Eco town projects
