Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] To provide a disaster prevention information system that enables a person requesting assistance who does not have a mobile terminal or who has one but cannot use it to receive support from people nearby who have mobile terminals and communicate their evacuation location, assistance needs, and the events they are encountering to their family, a disaster countermeasure headquarters, or the like. [Background technology]

[0002] Many conventional disaster prevention information systems operate by integrating personal identification with mobile devices. During the Great East Japan Earthquake, if a malfunction occurred in one's mobile device, it was not possible to send or receive information, and one's evacuation requests could not be reported to the disaster response headquarters or family, meaning that appropriate rescue and support could not be received promptly.

[0003] Patent No. 5844898 already discloses a technology that allows those requesting assistance to confirm the safety of their families. However, it is difficult to convey information about disaster events other than safety confirmation. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0004] [Patent Document 1] Patent No. 5844898 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] The present invention aims to provide a disaster prevention information system that allows a person requesting assistance to easily receive and transmit the minimum necessary information using a widely available mobile terminal, provided that the person carries a personal mark 1. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] A personal mark 1 is a two-dimensional code created by encoding personal identification information and the URL of the mobile device that the support requester owns, and an event mark 2 indicating an event that is a two-dimensional code obtained by encoding the event identification information and the URL of the mobile device; a mobile terminal 3 of a supporter who supports the support requester, capable of reading the personal mark 1 and the event mark 2; Personal identification information of personal mark 1 and personal information related to the personal identification information; a server 4 that stores event identification information of the event mark 2 and event information related to the event identification information; A network 5 is provided for connecting a mobile terminal 3 and a server 4. Disaster prevention information system The supporter reads the personal mark 1 of the support requester with the mobile terminal 3, via Network 5 The personal identification information and the mobile identification information of the mobile terminal 3 are transmitted to the server 4 using the read destination URL, The server 4 registers personal identification information and mobile identification information, A read request for event mark 2 is returned, The mobile terminal 3 reads the event mark 2, The event identification information and the mobile identification information are transmitted to the server 4 using the read destination URL. The server 4 registers the event identification information and the mobile identification information, The server 4 stores personal information corresponding to the personal identification information and event information corresponding to the event identification information, By linking and managing personal identification information and personal information, and event identification information and event information with mobile phone identification information, The system is characterized by providing supporters with the information necessary for support, thereby supporting those who wish to receive support.

[0007] A feature of this method is that the connection time between the mobile terminal 3 and the server 4 is registered in the server 4.

[0008] The location information acquired by the mobile terminal 3 is registered in the server 4. [Effects of the Invention]

[0009] According to the present invention, if a supporter connects to the personal mark 1 and the event mark 2 on their mobile device, Those requesting support can provide information about the issues they are encountering.

[0010] According to the invention of claim 2, the server 4 links the connection time acquired when connecting to the personal mark 1, It is possible to send out information about what kind of incidents those requesting support are encountering and when.

[0011] Furthermore, according to the invention of claim 3, the server 4 links the connection time and location information obtained when connecting to the personal mark 1, and can transmit information on when, where, and what kind of incident the person requesting support is encountering. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[0012] [Figure 1] 1 is an explanatory diagram of a disaster prevention information system according to the present invention. [Figure 2] 10 is a flowchart of information collection at the evacuation shelter admission reception in accordance with the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0013] During a large-scale disaster, it is difficult for the disaster response headquarters to quickly grasp the situation of those requesting assistance and the damages in the affected areas, and it is also difficult to grasp the senders of information. This is even more difficult in a society with a declining birthrate, aging population, and declining population. In this system, the senders of information are two people: the supporter and the requester, and the supporter's mobile device identification information can be traced back, so the information is highly reliable. Disaster prevention measures are also targeted at those requesting assistance, and it is desirable that the disaster prevention information system can also be used by those requesting assistance.

[0014] No matter how much we aim to increase the penetration rate of mobile devices, there are people who need support and cannot send information on their own (kindergarten and elementary school children, elderly people living alone, sick people, elderly people, people with dementia and those at risk, pet animals, etc.).

[0015] In this disaster prevention information system, an event is something that appears on the surface under certain circumstances, a real occurrence (source: Japanese dictionary), and is called an event as something necessary for disaster prevention measures.

[0016] In order for the disaster response headquarters to grasp the overall picture of the disaster as soon as possible after the disaster occurs, the above events are subdivided before the disaster occurs by disaster type, region, countermeasure, season, etc., and the events that have been examined are registered as event information on server 4 and treated as event identification information.

[0017] An example of event information is shown below. 1 I entered an evacuation shelter. 2. I left the ○○ evacuation shelter. 3 This is where the 38m tsunami hit during the Meiji Sanriku earthquake. 4 This is the area that was flooded during the 2018 Western Japan heavy rains. 5. This is a memorial to the 1963 heavy snowfall. 6. The evacuation shelter here has a capacity of 234 people. 7 Today's breakfast. 8 Today's lunch. 9 This is today's dinner. 10 This is a pet-friendly shelter. 11 This is a welfare evacuation room. 12 This is a blanket allowance for each person. 13 This is the first donation distribution. 14 This number is the evacuation space assigned to you at the evacuation shelter. 15 This is a restricted area. 16 I am bleeding heavily. 17 This warehouse stores A, B, C, D, E, F, and G. 18 This box contains H, I, J, K, L, M, and N. 19 This is a classic example of a fault. 20 This is a tsunami evacuation shelter Before a disaster occurs, disaster prevention knowledge, information on events that should be passed on, and information on events that will make evacuation shelter management more efficient are selected in advance and registered in server 4 in association with an event identification number.

[0018] When distributing Personal Mark 1, the significance and usage of carrying Personal Mark 1 at all times will be explained, as it is important for those requesting support to disseminate information.

[0019] FIG. 1 is an explanatory diagram of a disaster prevention information system according to an embodiment of the present invention. Reference numeral 1 denotes a personal mark 1 that is a two-dimensional code obtained by encoding personal identification information that identifies an individual and URL information that is the connection destination of the mobile terminal, and is carried by the individual at all times. The service manager who manages the server 4 registers the personal identification information and personal information on the server 4, and later prints and distributes the information to the residents. 2 is an event mark 2 that is displayed for each event and is a two-dimensional code that encodes event identification information that identifies events corresponding to the event information listed in (0017), such as teaching materials, materials, and matters used in disaster prevention education, training, and countermeasures, as well as evacuation centers and relief supplies to be used, and URL information that is the connection destination of the mobile terminal. The service manager who manages the server 4 registers the event identification information and the event information in the server 4 and later prints them, and the disaster countermeasure headquarters displays them on the designated event. 3 is a computer terminal equipped with a means for reading the two-dimensional codes of the personal mark 1 and the event mark 2, The mobile terminal 3 is provided with a mobile terminal program that transmits the personal identification information and mobile identification information of the personal mark 1, and the event identification information and mobile identification information of the event mark 2. A server 4 stores information transmitted and received between the personal mark 1, the event mark 2 and the portable terminal 3. A network 5 is used to connect the mobile terminal 3 and the server 4.

[0020] FIG. 2 is a flowchart of a specific example in which an event of a support requester entering a shelter in Example 1, which will be described later, is carried out using an individual mark 1 and an event mark 2.

[0021] Figure 2 At S1, the person requesting assistance carries personal mark 1.

[0022] At S2, a sign is posted at the reception desk of the evacuation shelter as event information, displaying a pair of event mark 2 registered in server 4 and the event information, such as "Enter XX evacuation shelter."

[0023] In S3, a person requesting assistance with personal mark 1 arrives at the evacuation shelter.

[0024] In S4, a support requester who does not have a mobile terminal 3 presents a personal mark 1. Owners of mobile devices in the vicinity can understand the intentions of those requesting support and can assist with admission reception work.

[0025] In S5, the supporter activates the barcode reader of the portable terminal 3 and connects it to the personal mark 1 of the support requester.

[0026] In S6, the mobile terminal 3 transmits the personal identification information and the mobile identification information to the server 4.

[0027] In S7, the server 4 receives the information, verifies it with the personal identification information, and returns an error message if they do not match.

[0028] If there is a match in S8, the server 4 can analyze that the support requester is safe simply by connecting to the personal mark 1 and based on the personal information.

[0029] In S9, the server 4 sends a reply request prompting the connection of the event mark 2 within a time limit.

[0030] In S10, if event mark 2 is not connected within the time limit, the information in S8 is confirmed.

[0031] In S11, the event mark 2 is connected within the time limit, and the event identification information and the mobile identification information are transmitted.

[0032] In S12, the server 4 that has received the message verifies it with the event identification information, and if they do not match, returns an error message.

[0033] If there is a match in S13, it is analyzed that the person requesting assistance has entered XX evacuation shelter based on the personal identification information, mobile phone identification information, and registered personal information obtained by connecting to personal mark 1, and the event identification information, mobile phone identification information, and registered event information obtained by connecting to event mark 2.

[0034] In S14, the server 4 creates information that the support requester has entered XX evacuation shelter, and transmits the information to the mobile terminal 3. The process of accepting the support requester into the evacuation shelter is completed.

[0035] As described above, by simply connecting the personal mark 1 of the support requester and the event mark 2 of the event in succession on the mobile terminal 3 of any supporter, information on who is encountering what event can be constructed and transmitted. [Example]

[0036] In 0019, the personal identification information and personal information of the support requester, and the event identification information and event information are registered in the server 4 when the personal mark 1 and the event mark 2 are issued.

[0037] When the mobile terminal 3 connects to the personal mark 1, it acquires personal identification information and mobile identification information and sends them to the server 4. The server 4 that receives the information registers the personal identification information and mobile identification information and replies with a connection request for the event mark 2, and upon receiving the reply, the mobile terminal 3 connects to the event mark 2 and transmits the event identification information and mobile identification information to the server 4, which then registers the event identification information and mobile identification information.

[0038] In the server 4, personal identification information, personal information, event identification information, event information, and mobile phone identification information are registered.

[0039] Personal identification information and personal information registered when issuing Personal Mark 1, The personal identification information and mobile identification information registered when connecting to Personal Mark 1 can be linked to the personal information and mobile identification information using the common personal identification information.

[0040] Event identification information and event information registered when Event Mark 2 is issued The event identification information and mobile identification information registered when the event mark 2 is connected can be linked to the event information and mobile identification information using the common event identification information.

[0041] In addition, personal information and event information can be linked using common mobile identification information.

[0042] From the personal information and event information, information can be constructed as to when the support requester encountered the event.

[0043] By receiving the aforementioned information about the type of incidents that victims are experiencing, the disaster response headquarters will be able to quickly confirm the safety of residents. [Example]

[0044] When the mobile terminal 3 connects to the personal mark 1, it acquires personal identification information, mobile identification information, and the connection time and sends them to the server 4. The server 4 that receives the information registers the personal identification information, mobile identification information, and the connection time and replies with a connection request for the event mark 2, and upon receiving the reply, the mobile terminal 3 connects to the event mark 2 and transmits the event identification information and mobile identification information to the server 4, which then registers the event identification information and mobile identification information.

[0045] The server 4 has registered therein personal identification information, personal information, event identification information, event information, mobile phone identification information, and connection time.

[0046] Personal identification information and personal information registered when issuing Personal Mark 1, The personal identification information, mobile identification information, and connection time registered when connecting to personal mark 1 can be linked to the personal information, mobile identification information, and connection time using the common personal identification information.

[0047] Event identification information and event information registered when Event Mark 2 is issued The event identification information and mobile phone identification information registered when the event mark 2 is connected can be linked to the event information and mobile phone identification information from the common event identification information.

[0048] In addition, personal information, event information, and connection time can be linked using the common mobile identification information.

[0049] From the personal information, the connection time, and the event information, information can be constructed as to when the support requester encountered the event.

[0050] By receiving the aforementioned information about when and what events victims are experiencing, the disaster response headquarters is able to obtain information to determine what assistance is most urgent in terms of time, thereby reducing waste of human, time, and material support resources. [Example]

[0051] When the mobile terminal 3 connects to the personal mark 1, it transmits personal identification information, mobile identification information, the connection time, and location information acquired by the mobile terminal 3 to the server 4. The server 4 that receives this information registers the personal identification information, mobile identification information, connection time, and location information, and replies with a connection request for the event mark 2. Upon receiving the reply, the mobile terminal 3 connects to the event mark 2 and transmits the event identification information and mobile identification information to the server 4, and the server 4 that receives it registers the event identification information and mobile identification information.

[0052] In the server 4, personal identification information, personal information, event identification information, event information, mobile phone identification information, connection time, and location information are registered.

[0053] Personal identification information and personal information registered when issuing Personal Mark 1 The personal identification information, mobile identification information, connection time, and location information registered when connecting to personal mark 1 can be linked to the personal information, mobile identification information, connection time, and location information using the common personal identification information.

[0054] Event identification information and event information registered when Event Mark 2 is issued The event identification information and mobile phone identification information registered when the event mark 2 is connected can be linked to the event information and mobile phone identification information from the common event identification information.

[0055] In addition, personal information, event information, connection time, and location information can be linked using the common mobile identification information.

[0056] From the personal information, connection time, location information, and event information, information can be constructed as to when and where the support requester encountered the event.

[0057] By receiving the aforementioned information about when, where, and what events the victims were experiencing, the disaster response headquarters was able to obtain accurate information regarding assistance, such as the time required to prioritize relief efforts, assistance routes, equipment, and personnel, making it possible to provide effective assistance.

[0058] The personal identification information is a number or symbol that uniquely identifies an individual, such as an insurance number or a My Number promoted by the government. Personal information can also be recorded in the database of the server 4 by each individual using a mobile terminal.

[0059] Event mark 2 and personal mark 1 can be read in reverse order, or multiple personal marks 1 can be read consecutively after event mark 2. [Industrial Applicability]

[0060] The results of disaster prevention education and training, as well as post-disaster responses, can be measured, recorded, and evaluated as data for each individual, enabling the development of new disaster prevention education and training methods and countermeasures. The ability of those requesting assistance to send information means that anyone with a personal mark 1 can send information, creating a disaster prevention information system that anyone can use.
