  FIG. 15 and FIG. 16 explain the process in which the local government device 200 aggregates needs information for each disaster-stricken area and each goods category, and adjusts the inventory information of the goods providing organization to create the material distribution information by shelter. This will be described next.

(1) First, the municipality side device 200 receives the evacuation center ID, date and time, and needs information from the evacuation site side device 100, and registers them in the needs DB 201. In addition, the municipality side device 200 receives from the evacuation site side device 100 the evacuation site information including the number of victims, the evacuation site ID, the latitude and longitude information of the closed place, the inventory item category, and the inventory quantity, and receives it. Registration in the DB 202 (steps 1501 and 1502).

(2) The needs totaling application 209 in the local government side device 200 totals the received needs information for each shelter and each material category, and creates needs totaling information. Note that the image of needs aggregation information created by the processing here will be described later with reference to FIG. 17 (step 1503).

(3) After the needs aggregation information is created by the processing in step 1503, the material arrangement information creation application 210 extracts and sums the inventory amounts for each material category from the material provision organization DB 203, and creates stock information for each material provision organization material category. (Step 1504).

(4) After creating the needs aggregation information in the processing of step 1504 and the inventory information by goods providing group / material category, the needs aggregation information aggregated by the processing of step 1503 is aggregated by the processing of step 1504. It is determined whether it is smaller than the information (step 1505).

(5) If the aggregated needs information is smaller than the inventory information for each material supply group category in the determination in step 1505, the total amount of supplies that can be provided exceeds the total amount of needs. Create material distribution plan information by location. The creation image of the material distribution plan information by shelter created here will be described later with reference to FIG. 18 (step 1506).

(6) If the aggregated needs information is larger than the inventory information for each material providing group / material category in the determination in step 1505, if the distribution is performed according to the needs information of each shelter, the supplies become insufficient, so the needs information of each shelter Based on the ratio of the total to all needs, the distribution ratio of the inventory information for each material supply group and the product category is calculated, and the distribution information for each shelter is prepared by distributing based on the ratio. The creation image of the material distribution plan information classified by shelter created here will be described later with reference to FIG. 19 (step 1507).

(7) In the processing of steps 1506 and 1507, after creating the material distribution plan information for each evacuation site, whether or not the evacuation center has received material provision in the past, that is, whether or not the number of past material provisions is 0. Determination is made (step 1508).

(8) If it is determined in step 1508 that no material has been provided in the past, the material distribution plan information for each evacuation site created in step 1506 or 1507 is directly used as the material distribution information for each evacuation site. The information is stored in the evacuation site-specific material distribution DB 204, and the processing here ends (steps 1509 and 1514).

(9) If it is determined in step 1508 that material has been received in the past, the amount of material provided from the material distribution DB 204 by evacuation site, the previous damage, using the “material category” of the material distribution plan information by evacuation site as a key. The number of persons and the inventory amount by material category for each evacuation site are acquired from the evacuation site DB 202 (step 1510).

(10) Based on the amount of supplies provided, the number of victims last time, and the inventory amount by material category, the average consumption per person (assumed A) for each evacuation site and 1 for the entire evacuation site "Average consumption of goods per person (B)" is calculated (step 1511).

(11) Next, the average material consumption A per person for each evacuation site calculated in the processing of step 1511 is compared with the average material consumption B per person for the entire evacuation site, and A ≦ B for each evacuation site. Is determined (step 1512).

(12) If the average consumption per person for each evacuation area is greater than the average consumption per person for the entire evacuation area as a result of the determination in step 1512, the evacuation center DB 202 is informed about the evacuation center. The number of disaster victims is acquired, “the number of disaster victims × average material consumption per person of the entire evacuation center” is calculated, and the material distribution information for each evacuation center is corrected to that value. As a result of the amendment, there is an excess or deficiency between the inventory information by goods providing group and product distribution information by refuge, and the surplus or deficiency part is obtained from the evacuation shelter DB 202 for the surplus or deficiency part. Assign to all shelters based on the ratio of people. Then, the corrected material distribution information for each evacuation site obtained in this way is stored in the material distribution DB 204 for each evacuation site, and the processing here ends (steps 1513 and 1514).

(13) As a result of the determination in step 1512, when the average amount of consumption per person for each refuge is smaller than the average amount of consumption per person for the entire evacuation shelter, in particular, the distribution information for each refuge Therefore, the evacuation-specific material distribution plan information determined in step 1509 is stored in the evacuation-specific material distribution DB 204 as the evacuation-specific material distribution information, and the process ends here. Details of the data items of the refuge material distribution DB 204 created by this process will be described later with reference to FIG. 20 (step 1514).

  FIG. 18 is a diagram showing an image of the evacuation material distribution plan information created by the processing of step 1506 described above. In the example shown here, as shown in FIG. 18A, the total number “400” of needs aggregation information from each evacuation center is provided for the quantity “400” of the inventory information that can be provided from the supply organization. In this example, since supplies can be provided according to the needs of each refuge, as shown in FIG. 18 (b), the needs information from each refuge is used as it is. It represents an image that is reflected in the information.

  FIG. 19 is a diagram showing an image of the material distribution plan information classified by shelter created by the processing in step 1507 described above. In the example shown here, as shown in FIG. 19A, the total number “400” of needs aggregation information from each evacuation center is provided for the quantity “320” of the supplyable inventory information from the supply organization. In this example, since supplies cannot be provided according to the needs of each refuge, as shown in FIG. 19 (b), the ratio of the needs information of each refuge to the total needs (In this case, the quantity of material inventory information that can be provided is distributed according to evacuation shelters A: B: C = 1: 4: 3), and the image shows that the material distribution plan information for each evacuation center is created.

  FIG. 20 is a diagram showing a detailed example of data items of the refuge material distribution DB 204 created by the processing of step 1514 described above. The material distribution DB 204 for each evacuation site is as follows. 1. Shelter ID assigned so that the shelter can be uniquely identified. 2. Material category name indicating the material category to be distributed to the shelter. The material supply amount indicating the supply amount to the refuge of the material category is stored and configured. Note that a plurality of material category names of item number 2 and material supply amounts of item number 3 can be registered for one shelter ID.

  By the processing shown in FIGS. 15 and 16 described above, the material distribution information for each refuge can be created.

  FIG. 21 is a flowchart for explaining a process for determining an organization that actually provides supplies based on the distribution information for each refuge and transmitting the distribution information for each refuge to the supply organization. explain.

(1) When the process is started, the material provision organization determination application 211 of the local government device 200 acquires information on “material category” of the material distribution information by shelter (step 2101).

(2) Next, the material supply organization determination application 211 searches the material supply organization DB 203 using the “material category” information of the acquired material distribution information for each evacuation site as a key, and “material category” of the material distribution information for each evacuation site. "Supplyable goods category" of the material providing organization information and "Supplying organization ID", "Group base address", "Available material inventory", "Delivery capability coefficient", "1" The “daily delivery reference distance” is acquired from the material supply organization DB 203 (step 2102).

(3) In addition, the material supply organization determination application 211 acquires the evacuation center address and the closed location information (latitude / longitude information) from the evacuation site DB 202, and the acquired material supply organization ID, the organization base address, the refuge address, and the closed location The location information (latitude / longitude information) is transmitted to the navigation system 400 (steps 2103 and 2104).

(4) The navigation system 400 considers the closed location information (latitude / longitude information) based on the information received from the material providing organization determination application 211, and the “organization base address” and the shelter address of the material providing organization information. The distance between and is calculated, and the value is transmitted as “delivery distance” to the local government apparatus 200 (step 2105).

(5) The material supply organization determination application 211 uses the delivery distance from the navigation system 400 received by the local government device 200 and the available material inventory amount and the delivery capacity factor acquired in the processing of Step 2102. Rank the provider. The ranking of the material providing groups created by the processing here will be described later with reference to the image diagram shown in FIG. 22 (step 2106).

(6) Next, the material supply organization determination application 211 determines a material supply organization that is preferentially arranged as a material arrangement destination from a material supply organization with a high ranking based on the ranking result in the processing of Step 2106. Each material providing group allocates the amount of material to be delivered (step 2107).

(7) Then, the material supply organization determination application 211 determines, for each material supply organization, the daily delivery standard distance of the material supply organization, the physical organization base address of the material supply organization, and the evacuation shelter address. Is compared with the delivery distance between the two, and it is determined whether or not the delivery reference distance per day is larger than the delivery distance (step 2108).

(8) If it is determined in step 2108 that the daily delivery reference distance is greater than the delivery distance, the material providing organization determination application 211 obtains material arrangement information based on the amount of material to be delivered for each material providing organization. The material arrangement information is created and registered in the material arrangement DB 205. Details of data items in the material arrangement DB 205 storing the material arrangement information created here will be described later with reference to FIG. 23 (step 2110).

(9) If the delivery standard distance per day is smaller than the delivery distance in the determination in step 2108, delivery is impossible in one day. Need to be assigned. In other words, if there is an obstacle in the route to the evacuation site where the material supply organization delivers goods, the delivery distance will be long and it will take a long time for delivery, taking into account the consumption of the evacuation materials consumed at that time as well. Therefore, it is necessary to increase the allocation amount of the supplies to the supply organization, which is the distribution amount of the supplies to be delivered to the shelter. Therefore, the material provision organization application 211 calculates “delivery distance ÷ delivery reference distance”, and updates the amount of material to be delivered with a value obtained by multiplying the value by the material allocation amount of the material provision organization. . The amount of material to be accumulated is compensated in order from the material providing organization with the lowest ranking in the processing of step 2106. The material arrangement information by the updated assignment is registered in the material arrangement DB 205 in the process of step 2110 described above. Note that the updating of the amount of material to be delivered for each material providing organization in this processing will be described later with reference to the image diagram shown in FIG. 24 (step 2109).

(10) The local government device 200 transmits the material arrangement information to the material provision organization side device 300, updates the “providable material inventory amount” in the material provision organization DB 203 in accordance with the contents of the material arrangement information, The process ends (step 2111).

  FIG. 22 is a diagram showing an image for explaining the ranking of the material supply organizations created by the processing in step 2106 described above. In the example shown here, for each of the delivery distance, inventory quantity, and delivery capability coefficient for each material providing organization as shown in FIG. 22 (a), the shorter the delivery distance, the higher the rating from 1 in order. The higher the number, the higher the rating from 1 in order, and the higher the delivery capacity coefficient, the higher the rating from 1 in order as shown in FIG. 22 (b). This is an example of preferential determination as an organization that actually delivers goods.

  FIG. 23 is a diagram showing a detailed example of data items in the material arrangement DB 205 that stores the material arrangement information created by the processing in step 2110 described above. The material arrangement DB 205 is provided for each material providing organization. 1. Material supply organization ID assigned to uniquely identify the material supply organization. 2. The name of the material supply organization indicating the name of the material supply organization; 3. Request date / time indicating the date / time when the material arrangement information is transmitted from the municipality apparatus 200; 4. Material category indicating the category of material requested to be provided; 5. Shelter ID assigned so as to uniquely identify the shelter that is the material delivery destination; 6. A shelter address indicating the address of the shelter that is the delivery destination of goods. It is configured to store supplies provided that indicate the amount of supplies provided to the evacuation center.

  FIG. 24 is an example showing an image for explaining the update of the quantity of goods to be delivered for each goods providing group. Now, as shown in FIG. 24 (a), it is assumed that the inventory amount of goods and the supply amount of goods of danntai A, F, K, and Z, which are supply organizations, have been registered for a certain supply. Then, regarding danntai F shown in FIG. 24A, this material providing organization is “delivery reference distance <delivery distance”, and it is necessary to increase the amount of material provided by danntai F. For this reason, first, since the value of “delivery distance ÷ delivery reference distance” of danntai F is “2”, the material provision amount of danntai F is updated from 700 to 1400. Since 700 shortages occur as a whole, the amount of goods provided by danntai Z and danntai K will be compensated for the quantity provided by danntai F. As a result, as shown in FIG. 24B, the material supply amounts of danntai A, danntai F, danntai K, and danntai Z are 1000, 1400, 600, and 0, respectively.

  Each processing in the above-described embodiment of the present invention can be configured as a processing program, and this processing program is stored in a recording medium such as HD, DAT, FD, MO, DVD-ROM, and CD-ROM and provided. can do.

  According to the embodiment of the present invention as described above, in an emergency such as the occurrence of a disaster, it is possible to determine an appropriate material distribution and material supply organization based on needs information and information on the evacuation site status.

  In other words, the evacuation site equipment receives the evacuation site information such as the needs information input by the disaster victims, the number of evacuees entered by the evacuation site manager, the disaster situation around the evacuation site, etc. Send. In addition, the local government side apparatus appropriately distributes supplies to each evacuation site based on the needs information, the inventory amount of the supply organization, and the like. Furthermore, the local government apparatus considers the past supply amount of goods, the average amount of consumption per person for each refuge, etc., and again distributes the appropriate supplies to each refuge and registers the result.

  When the distribution of supplies to each evacuation center is completed, the local government equipment selects and determines the organization that preferentially supplies the materials, using the distance between the refuge and the base of the supply organization, the inventory amount of the materials, etc. as indicators. When the material providing group is determined, the material arranging information such as the address of the evacuation shelter that is the material providing destination and the necessary amount is transmitted to the material providing group.

  As described above, according to the embodiment of the present invention, it becomes possible for the victim himself / herself to input the needs information, so that accurate needs can be grasped, and for each shelter based on a plurality of pieces of information. Since the distribution of goods is determined, it is possible to appropriately distribute a limited supply stock. In addition, according to the embodiment of the present invention, the determination of the material supply organization is not made from a single point of view, but is determined based on a plurality of indicators such as the distance to the disaster area and the delivery capability, so that it is appropriately determined.
