Abstract

This paper presents a dynamic digital map displaying user’s position and his/her environmental and health status for prevention of heatstroke, which is one of worst natural disaster in Japan. We use Internet of Things (IoT) data of Global Positioning System (GPS) and temperature surrounding people. Victims of heatstroke in Japan have been increasing in summer, and the heatstroke causes a large number of deaths annually. To avoid this situation when people are walking outside in summer, our proposed digital map provides the information of their walking locus created by their GPS data along with their heartbeat rate and surrounding temperature collected by IoT devices. To develop our proposed system, we conducted an experiment, and the results of the dynamic digital map are promising.
