Report

Number of participants 35

In this public Forum, we discussed on the use of radar technology for natural disaster prevention and mitigation, and how the radar information should be sent to local governments and police stations. Tohoku university has demonstrated the use of radar technology for land slide monitoring and archaeological survey in local areas.

Now we think it is quite important to send the acquired information appropriately to local governments, police and finally local inhabitants.

Practical example of radar monitoring of land slide in Arato-zawa, Miyagi Japan was reported from Prof. Motoyuki Sato, Tohoku university and Mr. Kikuo Sato of Kurihara city and Mr. Yasuo Iijima of Forestry agency of Japan have described the current situation.

Mr. Kouhei Sakuma of Miyagi prefecture has reported the importance of archaeological survey with a new technology to speed up the recovery from Earthquake disasters and Mr. Yoshinori Watanabe of Fukushima Prefectural Police has reported the coopetition with Tohoku university for GPR survey of Tsunami victims.

Miyagi prefectural police has presented the GPR activities in Miyagi prefecture.
