  • Due to urbanization and industrialization, urban and rural areas show differences in various characteristics such as population structure, economic level and infrastructure, but disaster safety measures do not reflect these characteristics. In this study, the theoretical review on the disaster environments of urban and rural areas was carried out, and the survey of consciousness on disaster and safety(unstructured elements, structured elements, personel elements, environmental elements) targeting the idents was carried out in order to investigate the consciousness of residents in urban and rural areas for disaster safety. Also based on the survey result, the matters to be reflected when establishing a regional disaster management plan in future were drawn.

  • Coastal cities suffer a great deal of storm and wind damage. The storm and wind characteristics vary between cities. Therefore, a storm and wind damage management system suited for specific characteristics is required for each coastal city. In this study, we analyze the current situation and establish the problem of storm and wind damage management system in regards to urban management, coastal management and disaster management. We also review the storm and wind damage management system for the USA and Japan. We consequently propose a plan to improve the storm and wind damage management system. As a result of the study, in terms of city management, we recommend the compulsory identification of disaster prevention districts, implementation of the integrated coastal city management plan, designation of natural disaster risk mitigation area as disaster prevention district, the division of disaster prevention district into wind damage prevention district, storm damage prevention district, erosion damage prevention district, the building of restrictions at the disaster prevention district by ordinance, etc. In regards to coastal management, we suggest the delegation of authority to delegate coastal erosion management area to the local government, the subdivision of coastal erosion management area into erosion serious area, erosion progress area, erosion concern area, the building restrictions at coastal erosion management area by ordinance, development of erosion prediction chart, etc. In relation to disaster management, we recommend the integration of "countermeasures against natural disasters act" and "disasters and safety management basic act", the local government-led disaster prevention system, the local disaster management network, and the customized local disaster prevention plan, etc.
