Keywords:remote sensing, National Environment and Disaster Prevention, civil engineering
The Scientific Research Group for National Environment and Disaster Prevention was established in 2005 to succeed the activities of the scientific research group on remote sensing technology for civil engineering and landslides. The primary focus of the previous study groups encompassed four key areas:
1. Conducting a literature survey on satellite image processing and analysis for the construction field.
2. Organizing construction site tours.
3. Investigating use cases of high-spatial-resolution satellite images in the construction field.
4. Implementing commissioned research projects.
The outcomes of these study group activities were disseminated through publications in numerous academic journals and presentations at academic lectures. Moreover, to consolidate the cumulative efforts, a workshop was convened in November 2001 to deliberate on the prospective utilization of 1m class high spatial resolution satellite data and synthetic aperture radar data in the construction field. Through these endeavors, the group members were confident that the original objectives of the scientific group had been accomplished. Consequently, the two study groups were disbanded, leading to the establishment of the current group.
Given the escalating severity of natural disasters and climate change effects, the integration of information and communication technology is becoming more tangible in national land management operations. Recognizing this trend, we posit that the effective utilization of satellite remote sensing and related technologies will progressively gain significance. Therefore, our ongoing research is dedicated to exploring new data use cases and application fields.
In this context, we present interviews with public organizations, participation in the National Conference for Promoting Disaster Risk Reduction (sponsored by the Cabinet Office), and instances of satellite image analysis conducted by study group members.
