Georeferencing Aerial Photographs Project

• Starting from OSGeoJP-discuss ML

• Over 20 volunteers joined to the project

• About 100 scenes of aerial photographs

were geo-rectified in 2 days• About some thousands of photographs were merged by GDAL

• Some related projects were setup in order to facilitate the works

Many cloud companies provided their server resources

• Amazon Web Services: sinsai.info,

Aerial & satellite images WMS server

• IIJ :　Web site hosting to local governments

• IBM : 　SAHANA project

• NTT Data :　OpenStreetMap, sinsai.info

• SAKURA Internet: GSI site

Many cloud companies provided their server resources

Comparing with the Great Hanshin EQ (Jan. 17th, 1995)

• Many online voluntary activities, especially geographical

• Internet infra developments and cellphones improvements

• Utilizations of FOSS4G tools

• Many and variety of collaboration works thru network

• Not only domestic activities but many supports from other countries

M7.0 quakes hit in Kobe area, more than 6,000 were killed

• Enhance community bodies

• Roles of communities in emergency situations

• Collaborations with other countries,

• mitigate language barrier

• Promote FOSS4G, the training and preparing documentations

For faster response to future disasters

Fu-Japan was

saved
