Description

【Technical Field】 【0001】 The present disclosure relates to a material evaluation system, a material evaluation method, and a material evaluation program. 【Background Art】 【0002】 Abnormal weather is increasing, and in the event of major disasters such as typhoons, heavy snow, and earthquakes, it becomes difficult to deliver materials to the disaster area due to road blockages and the like. As a result, a shortage of materials occurs in the disaster area. 【0003】 In Patent Document 1, based on the information of the transportation network, a transportation network for transporting a transportation target is determined by setting a plurality of reference points such as the departure point, arrival point, and transit point of the transportation target in the target area, and a route connecting each reference point. Therefore, in the event of a disaster, it is conceivable to adjust the push-type transportation of materials using the transportation network determined in Patent Document 1. Also, transportation using automobiles or drones can be considered using the transportation network determined in Patent Document 1. 【Prior Art Documents】 【Patent Documents】 【0004】 【Patent Document 1】 Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2002-329286 【Summary of the Invention】 【Problems to be Solved by the Invention】 【0005】 However, the method described in Patent Document 1, which primarily involves transporting goods from distant locations, becomes difficult to use quickly when roads are cut off. In order for residents in disaster-stricken areas to quickly procure essential supplies such as water and food, it is necessary to create an environment where stockpiling in each region becomes commonplace during peacetime. To achieve this, an incentive system is needed to encourage residents in each region to stockpile surplus goods. However, currently, such an incentive system for stockpiling surplus goods does not exist. There is a need for a material evaluation technology that can provide an incentive for residents to stockpile and share surplus goods. 【0006】 Therefore, one of the objectives that the embodiments disclosed herein seek to achieve is to provide a material evaluation system, a material evaluation method, and a material evaluation program that can perform material evaluation. [Means for solving the problem] 【0007】 A material evaluation system according to one aspect of this disclosure comprises a material management unit that manages materials, and an evaluation unit that determines the price of the materials based on the needs information of the materials in a predetermined area, the supply and demand balance of the materials, and past pricing records of the materials. 【0008】 A material valuation method in one aspect of this disclosure comprises the steps of managing materials and determining the price of materials based on material needs information in a predetermined area, the supply and demand balance of the materials, and past pricing records of the materials. 【0009】 One aspect of this disclosure is a materials assessment program, which includes the step of managing negotiable materials, The computer is instructed to perform the following steps: determine the price of the negotiable goods based on information on the needs for goods in a designated area, the supply and demand balance of the goods, and past pricing records of the goods. [Effects of the Invention] 【0010】 This disclosure provides a material evaluation system, a material evaluation method, and a material evaluation program that can perform the evaluation of materials.

[Figure 8] This is a block diagram illustrating an example of the material evaluation system related to this disclosure. [Figure 9] This flowchart illustrates a material evaluation method using the material evaluation system related to this disclosure. [Modes for carrying out the invention] 【0012】 Embodiments of this disclosure will be described below with reference to the drawings. Note that the following description and drawings have been omitted and simplified as appropriate for clarity of explanation. Furthermore, in the following drawings, the same elements are denoted by the same reference numerals, and redundant explanations have been omitted where necessary. 【0013】 <Overview of Embodiments> An overview of the embodiment will be described. This embodiment relates to a system for appropriately evaluating and distributing the value of materials in a disaster area according to their needs, for example, in an emergency such as a disaster. This embodiment may evaluate the materials stocked by individuals and private entities, taking into account the time, cost, etc. involved in investigating material needs and transportation within the disaster area. This embodiment may create a distribution plan taking into account the time, cost, etc. involved in investigating material needs and transportation within the disaster area. As a result, this embodiment realizes the stockpiling of surplus materials, the motivation for donations in an emergency, and the distribution of materials within the disaster area. 【0014】 For example, in the past, a person who stocked surplus water might not have known how to lend it to those in need. In this embodiment, surplus materials can be lent to those who need them during a disaster, and a consideration can also be received. Therefore, it is possible to provide an incentive to stockpile more materials. 【0015】 Note that this embodiment may be applied not only to emergencies such as disasters but also to a system for appropriately evaluating and distributing the value of materials according to their needs in normal times. As a result, it is possible to provide an incentive to stockpile materials in normal times. 【0016】 FIG. 1 is a block diagram illustrating a material evaluation system 1 according to the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 1, the material evaluation system 1 includes a material management unit 110 and an evaluation unit 120. The material management unit 110 and the evaluation unit 120 each have functions as material management means and evaluation means. As will be described later, the material evaluation system 1 may be realized by a single device such as an information processing device, or may be realized by a configuration including a plurality of devices. 【0017】 The material management unit 110 manages materials. The material management unit 110 manages the number of each type of material and the storage location, etc. 【0018】 The supplies include supplies that can be circulated within a predetermined area. The predetermined area includes, for example, the disaster area. Note that the predetermined area is not limited to the disaster area and may include a specific area during normal times. The supplies that can be circulated may include supplies that can be circulated from within the predetermined area to within the predetermined area, or may include supplies that can be circulated from outside the predetermined area to within the predetermined area. The supplies include supplies important for the lives of disaster victims such as water, food, gasoline, and batteries. The supplies may include pharmaceuticals, nursing care supplies, clothing, and daily necessities. The supplies may include electricity and emergency power sources for power-outage infrastructure. Also, various automobiles such as light trucks and trucks, various heavy machinery such as excavators and cranes, and other various machines such as drones and robots may be treated as supplies. Furthermore, the supplies may include labor forces such as skilled workers and volunteers. Note that the labor force may be priced with remuneration, gratitude, etc. Also, the machines and labor force may be provided at any time. The supplies are not limited to supplies necessary during disasters and may include supplies necessary during normal times. 【0019】 The evaluation unit 120 performs pricing of supplies based on the needs information of supplies in the predetermined area, the supply-demand balance of supplies, and the past pricing performance of supplies. 【0020】 The needs information of supplies includes the needs of the supplies, that is, the necessity and urgency of the supplies. For example, high needs mean that there are many residents who want the supplies, the supplies are not available in the shelters, and it takes time and cost to replenish the supplies. The needs information of supplies may be derived from the reserve information of shelters, the reserve information of residents in the predetermined area, the questionnaires of residents in the predetermined area, the questionnaires of evacuees who have taken shelter in shelters, social networking services (referred to as SNS), telephone contacts, bulletin board contacts, etc. 【0021】 The supply-demand balance of supplies includes the balance between the needs of the supplies and the amount of the supplies stocked by shelters in the predetermined area, the amount of the supplies stocked by residents in the predetermined area, and the amount of the supplies considering the expected arrival date and time of the supplies to be delivered from now on. 【0022】 Past pricing records for goods include the price of the goods during normal times and the price of the goods during similar past disasters. Furthermore, the pricing records may include not only pricing records within a specified area, but also pricing records outside of that area. In other words, the pricing records may include pricing records within a specified area during both normal times and disasters, or within a specified area during both normal times and disasters. 【0023】 The evaluation unit 120 performs pricing for goods. Pricing includes determining the price. In addition to determining the price, pricing may also include determining the compensation for goods and labor other than price, and determining the items to be exchanged in the case of bartering. 【0024】 The evaluation unit 120 determines the price using one of the following pricing methods. Specifically, the pricing method may be calculated by adding the transaction price in similar circumstances to the normal price of the goods. Alternatively, the pricing method may be calculated by adding the cost of transportation from a distant location to the normal price of the goods. Alternatively, the pricing method may be calculated by comparing the estimated prices of various transportation companies. Alternatively, the pricing method may be calculated based on a balance of factors such as the difficulty of finding alternatives for the goods, the scarcity of the goods, and how urgently the goods are needed. Furthermore, these factors may be evaluated according to pre-set criteria, and the pricing may be adjusted (by a predetermined percentage) according to that evaluation. 【0025】 The evaluation unit 120 may refer to a database containing past pricing records of goods to determine the price of goods when the needs information for goods in a given area, the supply and demand balance of goods, and past pricing records are most similar. The evaluation unit 120 may also assign weights to any one of these items when determining the price of goods. 【0026】 Figure 2 is a flowchart illustrating a material evaluation method using the material evaluation system 1 according to this disclosure. As shown in Figure 2, the material evaluation method of this embodiment comprises a material management step S110 and an evaluation step S120. 【0027】 In step S110, the materials management unit 110 manages the materials. In step S120, the evaluation unit 120 determines the price of the materials based on the needs information for the materials in a designated area, the supply and demand balance of the materials, and past pricing records for the materials. 【0028】 The material evaluation system 1 may be an information processing device such as a server or a personal computer. Figure 3 is a block diagram illustrating the material evaluation system 1 according to this disclosure. As shown in Figure 3, the information processing device as the material evaluation system 1 may further include a processor PRC, memory MMR, storage device STR, and a user interface UI. The storage device STR stores programs of the processes to be executed by each component of the information processing device. The processor PRC loads the programs from the storage device STR into the memory MMR and executes the programs. In this way, the processor PRC realizes the functions of each component in the information processing device. The user interface UI may include input devices such as a keyboard, mouse, and imaging device, and output devices such as a display, printer, and speaker. 【0029】 Each component of the information processing device may be implemented with dedicated hardware. Furthermore, some or all of each component may be implemented by general-purpose or dedicated circuits and processors (PRCs), or combinations thereof. These may be implemented by a single chip or by multiple chips connected via a bus. Some or all of each component may be implemented by a combination of the aforementioned circuits and programs. Additionally, a CPU (Central Processing Unit), GPU (Graphics Processing Unit), FPGA (Field-programmable Gate Array), quantum processor (quantum computer control chip), etc., can be used as the processor (PRC). 【0030】 Furthermore, if some or all of the components of an information processing device are implemented by multiple information processing devices or circuits, these multiple devices or circuits may be centrally located or distributed. For example, the information processing devices or circuits may be implemented in a form where each is connected via a communication network, such as a client-server system or a cloud computing system. In addition, the functions of the information processing device may be provided in SaaS (Software as a Service) format. 【0031】 Next, the effects of this embodiment will be explained. The material evaluation system 1 of this embodiment determines the price of materials based on material needs information in a predetermined area, the supply and demand balance of materials, and past material pricing records. As a result, the material evaluation system 1 can perform an appropriate evaluation of materials. 【0032】 By knowing the appropriate value of supplies, residents in a designated area can be motivated to stockpile surplus supplies. Thus, the supplies evaluation system 1 of this embodiment can provide an incentive design for residents to stockpile surplus supplies. 【0033】 <Embodiment 1> Figure 4 is a block diagram illustrating the material evaluation system 100 according to this disclosure. As shown in Figure 4, the material evaluation system 100 of this embodiment may further include a material needs analysis unit 111 and a database DB, in addition to the material management unit 110 and the evaluation unit 120. The material needs analysis unit 111 and the database DB have the functions of material needs analysis means and database means. Furthermore, the material evaluation system 100 of this embodiment may be connected to a material management application 210 and a communication application 220. 【0034】 The supplies management application 210 includes application software installed on a device separate from the supplies evaluation system 100. The supplies management application 210 manages supplies. For example, the supplies management application 210 may be installed on an information processing device installed in a government office. For example, the supplies management application 210 may manage the amount of supplies stockpiled by evacuation centers in a designated area and the amount of supplies stockpiled by residents in a designated area. The supplies management application 210 may manage the pricing history during normal times and during disasters within a designated area, or it may manage the pricing history during normal times and during disasters outside a designated area. 【0035】 The communication app 220 may include application software such as social networking services (SNS). The communication app 220 may also conduct surveys of residents in a designated area and surveys of evacuees who have evacuated to shelters. 【0036】 In this embodiment, the materials management unit 110 may manage materials that have been registered as available in the materials management application 210. 【0037】 The supplies needs analysis unit 111 analyzes needs information based on information on the stockpiling of supplies in a designated area and the supplies needs of residents in that area. The supplies needs analysis unit 111 analyzes needs information, including the quantity and urgency of the need for each supply, based on information from the supplies management app 210 and the communication app 220. 【0038】 The evaluation unit 120 takes into account the material needs information analyzed by the material needs analysis unit 111 to determine the price of the materials. 【0039】 The database DB stores the value assignments made by the evaluation unit 120. The database DB may also store information on materials managed by the materials management unit 110 and needs information analyzed by the materials needs analysis unit 111. Furthermore, the database DB may store material information and value assignment records obtained from the materials management application 210. 【0040】 Figure 5 is a flowchart illustrating a material evaluation method using the material evaluation system 100 according to this disclosure. Compared to the material evaluation method described above, the material evaluation method of this embodiment further includes a material needs analysis step S111. 【0041】 In step S110, the materials management unit 110 manages the materials that have been registered as available in the materials management application 210. 【0042】 In step S111, the materials needs analysis unit 111 analyzes needs information, including the quantity and urgency of each material required, based on information from the materials management app 210 and the communication app 220. 【0043】 In step S120, the evaluation unit 120 takes into account the analyzed needs information to determine the price of the goods. 【0044】 According to this embodiment, the material evaluation system 100 further includes a material needs analysis unit 111 that analyzes needs information based on material stockpiling information in a predetermined area and the material needs of residents in that area. Therefore, the material evaluation system 100 can evaluate materials that reflect the needs of residents in a predetermined area. This makes it possible to appropriately price materials to be provided based on material needs in a predetermined area during emergencies, etc. 【0045】 <Embodiment 2> Figure 6 is a block diagram illustrating the material evaluation system 200 according to this disclosure. As shown in Figure 6, the material evaluation system 200 includes a material management unit 110, a material needs analysis unit 111, an evaluation unit 120, and a database DB, as well as a disaster information input unit 112. The disaster information input unit 112 functions as a means for inputting disaster information. Furthermore, the material evaluation system 200 of this embodiment may be connected to a government disaster information system 230. 【0046】 The Government Disaster Information System 230 includes a system for collecting disaster information implemented by government agencies. The Government Disaster Information System 230 maintains infrastructure status in designated areas, as well as material transport plans, including the receipt and distribution of supplies. Infrastructure includes facilities that form the basis of daily life, such as lifelines. Infrastructure status includes, for example, power outages, water supply disruptions, and road closures. Material transport plans include road transport of supplies by automobile and transport of supplies using drones. 【0047】 The disaster information input unit 112 acquires infrastructure status and material transport plans for a designated area from the government disaster information system 230. 【0048】 The evaluation unit 120 determines the price of goods by taking into account at least one of the infrastructure status and the goods transportation plan. For example, in the event of a power outage, the evaluation unit 120 determines the price of generators and gasoline based on the needs information for generators and gasoline, the stockpiling information for generators and gasoline, the supply and demand balance based on the goods transportation plan for generators and gasoline, and past price increases. 【0049】 Figure 7 is a flowchart illustrating a material evaluation method using the material evaluation system 200 according to this disclosure. As shown in Figure 7, the material evaluation method of this embodiment further includes a disaster information input step S112 compared to the material evaluation method described above. 【0050】 In step S112, the disaster information input unit 112 obtains at least one of the infrastructure status and the material transport plan from the government disaster information system 230. 【0051】 In step S120, the evaluation unit 120 determines the price of the goods, taking into account at least one of the infrastructure conditions and the goods transportation plan. 【0052】 According to this embodiment, the material evaluation system 200 has a disaster information input unit 112 that inputs at least one of the infrastructure conditions and material transport plans in a predetermined area. Therefore, it is possible to evaluate materials based on the infrastructure conditions within the predetermined area. Furthermore, if there is a material transport plan to transport materials from outside the predetermined area, it is possible to evaluate the materials to be circulated within the predetermined area by taking into account how much material will be delivered from outside the predetermined area. Therefore, the evaluation of materials can be performed more appropriately. 【0053】 <Embodiment 3> Figure 8 is a block diagram illustrating the material evaluation system 300 related to this disclosure. As shown in Figure 8, the material evaluation system 300 includes a material management unit 110, a material needs analysis unit 111, a disaster information input unit 112, an evaluation unit 120, and a database DB, as well as a contracted material management unit 121 and a material delivery management unit 122. The contracted material management unit 121 and the material delivery management unit 122 have the functions of contracted material management means and material delivery management means. 【0054】 The Contracted Goods Management Unit 121 manages goods that have been priced by the Evaluation Unit 120 and for which a sale has been concluded. For example, the Contracted Goods Management Unit 121 manages goods, including determining where and to where the goods that have been sold should be transported from. For example, goods priced by the Evaluation Unit 120 may be sold between a stockpiling resident who stockpiles the goods and an evacuation center that needs the goods. In this case, the Contracted Goods Management Unit 121 manages the transportation of the goods from the stockpiling resident to the evacuation center. Alternatively, goods priced by the Evaluation Unit 120 may be sold between a stockpiling resident who stockpiles the goods and a government agency that needs the goods. In this case, the Contracted Goods Management Unit 121 manages the transportation of the goods from the stockpiling resident to the government agency. 【0055】 The Material Distribution Management Department 122 creates a material distribution plan that includes the receipt and distribution of materials valued by the Evaluation Department 120. For example, the Material Distribution Management Department 122 creates a material distribution plan in which materials are transported from stockpiling residents to evacuation centers. The Material Distribution Management Department 122 also creates a material distribution plan in which materials are transported from stockpiling residents to government offices. 【0056】 The evaluation unit 120 sets prices for goods, taking into account the goods delivery plan. Specifically, when a sale of goods priced by the evaluation unit 120 is completed, the goods delivery management unit 122 creates a goods delivery plan for those goods. In that case, the evaluation unit 120 sets prices for the goods again, taking into account the goods delivery plan. For example, if the transportation route planned by the goods delivery plan is long, or if there are road closures along the transportation route planned by the goods delivery plan, the evaluation unit 120 updates the prices of the goods, taking into account the goods delivery plan. 【0057】 Figure 9 is a flowchart illustrating a material evaluation method using the material evaluation system 300 according to this disclosure. As shown in Figure 9, the material evaluation method of this embodiment further includes a step S121 for managing contracted materials, a step S122 for managing material delivery, and an evaluation step S130, compared to the material evaluation method described above. 【0058】 In step S121, the contracted goods management unit 121 manages the goods that have been priced by the evaluation unit 120 and whose sale has been completed. For example, the contracted goods management unit 121 manages the goods, including where the goods that have been sold should be transported from and to. 【0059】 In step S122, the evaluation unit 120 creates a material delivery plan that includes the receipt and distribution of the materials that have been valued. 【0060】 In step S130, the evaluation unit 120 determines the price of the goods, taking into account the goods delivery plan. For example, the evaluation unit 120 updates the price again, taking into account the length of the planned transport route and any road disruptions. 【0061】 According to this embodiment, the material evaluation system 300 further includes a material delivery management unit 122 that creates a material delivery plan including the receipt and distribution of materials priced by the evaluation unit 120. The evaluation unit 120 then prices the materials taking the material delivery plan into account. Therefore, the evaluation unit 120 can update the pricing of materials that are to be circulated within a predetermined area, taking into account the material delivery plan. This makes it possible to price materials in a way that reflects costs and other factors in the material delivery plan. In other words, for materials that have been sold, different evaluations can be made between materials that can be delivered efficiently and materials that incur delivery costs. Therefore, appropriate evaluation of materials can be performed. 【0062】 Each component of the material evaluation system 1 and 100-300 in Embodiments 1-3 may have functions other than those described above. 【0063】 For example, the materials management unit 110 may set an allocation amount that preferentially allocates materials to specific organizations, including at least one of the national government, prefectural governments, and local governments. This allows the materials evaluation system 1 to have a function that ensures specific organizations preferentially purchase materials up to a certain amount or value. In this case, the evaluation unit 120 will set the price taking the allocation amount into account. For example, the evaluation unit 120 may set the price of materials taking into account the impact of the allocation amount on the supply and demand balance. Furthermore, the materials evaluation system 1 may have a function to cooperate with a national push-type material distribution system. For example, the materials evaluation system 1 may set an allocation amount in a system that performs national push-type material distribution. 【0064】 The evaluation unit 120 may set prices by taking into account at least one of the upper and lower limits of the price. This allows the goods evaluation system 1 to have a function that ensures prices remain within a certain range. Therefore, it is possible to set an upper limit for residents who need goods to purchase them, thereby reducing the burden on residents. Furthermore, it is possible to set a lower limit for residents who have stockpiled goods to sell them, thereby suppressing a decrease in the incentive for residents to stockpile goods. 【0065】 The designated area may have multiple areas, including a first area and a second area. The evaluation unit 120 may perform pricing for both the first area and the second area. This allows the material evaluation system 1 to have a function to allocate materials to the higher-priced area, i.e., the area with greater need, when pricing differs between adjacent areas. 【0066】 The materials needs analysis unit 111 may identify a first resident who stockpiles the first material in a designated area and a second resident who needs the first material in the designated area. The materials evaluation system 1 may further have a trading unit that facilitates the trading of materials between the first resident and the second resident. Thus, the materials evaluation system 1 may have a means of trading that enables C2C (Consumer To Consumer) trading of materials. Therefore, if there is a match in needs between neighboring residents who can transport materials immediately, materials can be bought and sold preferentially. 【0067】 Although the present disclosure has been described above with reference to embodiments, the present disclosure is not limited to the embodiments described above. Various modifications to the structure and details of the present disclosure can be made as can be understood by those skilled in the art within the scope of the present disclosure. Furthermore, each embodiment can be combined with other embodiments as appropriate. 【0068】 Each drawing is merely illustrative to illustrate one or more embodiments.
