Items: 8
The new technology allows for a single, high-resolution simulations encompassing both large-scale typhoons and smaller-scale tornadoes, resulting in accurate, real-time predictions, significantly improving disaster preparedness.
Fujitsu announced the delivery of a new supercomputer system to the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) to improve prediction accuracy for typhoons and torrential rains and help authorities develop data-driven plans to provide early warning and evacuation.
On 25 May 2022, the “Importance of investment in disaster risk reduction” was presented by the International Research Institute of Disaster Science (IRIDeS) Tohoku University during the Ignite Stage at GP2022.
Fujitsu will conduct an AI technology field trial for tsunami evacuations in Kawasaki, part of a joint project on ICT in DRR with the universities of Tokyo and Tohoku.
Fujitsu has developed a technology that predicts river flooding, using rainfall and water level information to assess risks even for smaller rivers with limited data.
A new project will advance the utilization of disaster prevention technologies and ICT, including artificial intelligence (AI) and supercomputers to predict tsunamis and take preemptive measures aimed at mitigating tsunami disaster risk in the Kawasaki coastal zone.
United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), International Research Institute of Disaster Science, Tohoku University (IRIDeS), and Fujitsu Limited today announced that the three organizations have agreed to form a partnership to build and operate a new global database, in the Global Centre for Disaster Statistics (GCDS), that will aim to reduce the damage caused by major natural disasters around the world.
Fujitsu Limited and PT. Fujitsu Indonesia today announced that they have built a river information system that incorporates augmented reality (AR)(1) technology for Manado, North Sulawesi, Indonesia. Fujitsu built the system at the request of the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) Indonesia Office.
Voluntary Commitments
The Sendai Framework Commitments (SFVC) online platform serves to incentivize stakeholders to inform the public about their work, to provide a vehicle for sharing commitments and initiatives and for motivation toward the implementation of the Sendai Framework. In turn, UNDRR can monitor and take stock of the progress and impact.
Fujitsu is involved in the following commitments:
