Promotion of data distribution in the disaster prevention field

Last Updated:

Overview

In the field of disaster prevention, many excellent applications are provided by private companies and local governments, and it is important to promote disaster prevention DX by making full use of them.
In Digital Agency, in addition to aiming for data-linkage between these disaster prevention apps, etc., by linking with government disaster prevention-related systems such as The SOBO-WEB (SOBO-WEB), we will realize once-only (information can be entered only once with a disaster prevention app, etc.) and promote initiatives to promote data-linkage in the disaster prevention field. With this, we aim to create an environment that delivers appropriate support to each and every resident.

Effort

2024 Disaster Management Data-Sharing Platform verification test

Digital Agency is considering promoting data-linkage in the disaster prevention field so that it can quickly provide the support residents need in the event of disasters.
In fiscal 2024, with the cooperation of Joso City, Ibaragi Prefecture and Koto Ward, Tokyo Prefecture, we conducted a verification test on data linkage between disaster prevention apps as follows.
In this verification test, five disaster prevention apps already developed and operated by private sector were linked through the data-linkage platform. With the participation of residents and voluntary disaster prevention organizations, the following items were verified.

  • Reduce the burden of entering the same information over and over
  • Provide appropriate support according to the situation of each disaster victim

Please refer to the following documents for details.

I would like to announce that I have compiled a report on verification test.

Results of the Call for Businesses to Participate in Research on the Demonstration of Data Linkage Infrastructure in the Disaster Prevention Field

Based on the "Priority Plan for the Realization of a Digital Society" (decided by the Cabinet on June 21, 2024), Digital Agency is promoting initiatives related to the construction of data-linkage infrastructure in the disaster prevention field.
In fiscal 2024, as part of the "Survey and Research on the Demonstration of Data Linkage Infrastructure in the Disaster Prevention Field" project, we are building a prototype data linkage infrastructure in cooperation with the Disaster Prevention DX Public Private Partnership Council and planning a data linkage verification test using multiple disaster prevention applications actually in operation.
For this reason, we have invited members of the Disaster Prevention DX Public-Private Joint Creation Council to participate in the verification test of this project, and as a result of the selection, we selected "Itsmos Mile Co., Ltd. (app name: Minna no Bosai)" as an additional participating business.
For details, please refer to the following documents.

Data-linkage with The SOBO-WEB

At Cabinet Office Disaster Prevention, efforts are being made to link data with The SOBO-WEB (SOBO-WEB), which began operation in April 2024.

Study toward the development of a data platform for the disaster prevention field

In order to develop a data-based platform for disaster risk reduction, we are collaborating with Cabinet Office, the National Research Institute for Earth Science and Disaster Prevention, and others to study important basic information that is desirable to be shared among disaster-response organizations and the operational rules necessary for data-sharing.
