ABSTRACT

Severe flood disasters may frequently occur in near future because global warming will change the flood risk. To prepare the disaster, we propose global flood simulation software which simulates flood flow in
short time on an earth viewer (i.e., global geographical information system). User can edit a flood scenario such as the location of levee failure by clicking on the earth viewer, then the software simulate the
flood flow based on fluid dynamics. The simulation and GIS communicate each other using our technology, the flood information are visualized on the viewer even during the simulation. I will make a presentation about
the technology and show how to work our flood simulation software.

Speaker: Satoshi Yamaguchi
I specialize in the geophysics, hydrodynamics and software development such as geographical information system (GIS). I conduct a research on flood disaster and develop flood simulation software on our original GIS for a number of years in Hitachi Central Research Laboratory. I studied physical oceanography in Tohoku University and received masters degree.

  • Flood control scheme brought to us by Goggle! A very useful application for all..

  • Nice simulation and thank you very much for your email./ Somporn

  • i can barely understand what he's saying :\

  • once the technology is created, things like lag can be reduced. try to be a little more optimistic buddy. ; P

  • crazy lag makes this software useless

  • a great work

  • nice simulator :D!

  • Very nice! Technology like this is the future!

  • This has the potential to save a lot of lives. Excellent work 5/5
