Abstract

In this study, we implemented an evacuation support system using beacon. During a large-scale natural disaster, many residents evacuate to evacuation centre. In such a situation, making a list of evacuees requires a lot of trouble and time. Therefore, we focused on beacon and devised an evacuation support system to realize quick registration and management of evacuee information. With this system, the disaster response headquarters can grasp accurate evacuee information at each evacuation centre. This also leads to accurate distribution of relief supplies to the evacuation centre.
