Abstract


When countering disaster, the disaster prevention agencies shall require immediate compiling and analysis on precipitation and disaster data from locations around Taiwan to perform real-time contingency decision making. However, the current briefing is mostly presented with PowerPoint and the information is delivered through printed copies, both require massive amount of time in producing and printing that result in the inability to update and deliver the latest disaster data, making the accuracy and instantaneity of the disaster data questionable and eventually leading to failing to effectively execute the contingency strategies. Owing to that, this research develops a qualitative disaster data delivery system, the Disaster Show (D-Show), to analyze the difficulties of the current disaster data delivery system by targeting the three aspects on management, operation and presentation. To elevate the user convenience in management setting and data managing, D-Show allows the user to conduct disaster data marking and exploration through customization, as well as data sequencing and identification, so that the disaster data could be presented more intuitively for the judgment and analysis of the contingency decision making.
