Cell Based GIS as Cellular Automata for Disaster Spreading Predictions and Required Data Systems

Abstract

A method for prediction and simulation based on the Cell Based Geographic Information System(GIS) as Cellular Automata (CA) is proposed together with required data systems, in particular metasearch engine usage in an unified way. It is confirmed that the proposed cell based GIS as CA has flexible usage of the attribute information that is attached to the cell in concert with location information and does work for disaster spreading simulation and prediction.
