Japan Asia Group Limited Review: Tsunami reconstruction

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.

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

-Provision/sale of tsunami simulation/survey/map data

Disaster debris analysis

Reconstruction

-Road, bridge, port etc. survey/design

-Liquefaction/slope stabilization countermeasures

-Radiation surveys/decontamination planning

-Survey, design, construction of renewable energy

-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
