Abstract
Abnormal weather conditions have lately been occurring frequently due to the rapid economic development and global warming. Natural disasters classified as storm and flood damages such as heavy rain, typhoon, strong wind, high seas and heavy snow arouse large-scale human and material damages. To minimize damages, it is important to estimate the scale of damage before disasters occur. This study is intended to develop a strong wind damage estimation function to prepare for strong wind damage among various storm and flood disasters. The developed function reflects weather factors and regional characteristics based on the strong wind damage history found in the Natural Disaster Yearbook. When the function is applied to a system that collects real-time weather information, it can estimate the scale of damage in a short time. In addition, this function can be used as the grounds for disaster control policies of the national and local governments to minimize damages from strong wind.
