Abstract

In our previous study, we identified the municipalities and each road within these municipalities for which road recovery was extremely delayed after the 2011 Tohoku Earthquake. In this study, we built an archive system to monitor these roads following the 2011 Tohoku Earthquake to identify and confirm the vulnerabilities of roads and raise their resilience. This system allows us to browse video images of vulnerable roads that are narrow, steep-walled, and located in mountainous regions. To date, we could only identify the type of problematic roads, but we had not developed methods for increasing their resilience, which can be done using the proposed system. The next step is to confirm the vulnerability of road components in detail.
