Abstract

In recent years, there have been many serious flood disasters. However, only a few citizens have sufficient knowledge about evacuation from the disaster. In order to reduce the damage, it is necessary for citizens to be aware of the flood risk of the residence, to prepare for disasters, and to take appropriate evacuation action at the time of disasters. For that purpose, citizens need to continuously learn disaster prevention information. Based on the above considerations, we develop a smartphone application for simulating flood disaster evacuation, based on the notion of gamification. In this paper, we report design and development of the disaster prevention smartphone application for citizens, focusing on easiness, continuity (wanting to use the application continuously), learning effects, and improvement of interest.
