Mycat Inc. (Headquarters: Meguro-ku, Tokyo) will release a Nankai Trough earthquake risk analysis report for the three Tokai prefectures of Aichi, Shizuoka, and Mie on its disaster risk visualization service "Saigai Map" (https://saigaimap.xyz).


Risks of the Nankai Trough Earthquake


According to the government's Earthquake Research Committee, the probability of a Nankai Trough earthquake occurring is estimated to be "70-80% within the next 30 years" (Source: Headquarters for Earthquake Research Promotion). The anticipated magnitude of the earthquake is M8-9 class, and as the three Tokai prefectures are included in the hypocentral region, significant damage is expected.


Regional Risk Analysis for the Three Tokai Prefectures


This service integrates and analyzes hazard map data published by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism and various local governments using AI, visualizing regional risks from the following perspectives:


Aichi Prefecture

  • Southern Nagoya City (Minato Ward, Minami Ward): Widespread areas with high liquefaction risk
  • Mikawa Bay Coast: Areas designated as tsunami inundation zones
  • Central Nagoya City: Densely populated areas where the occurrence of people unable to return home is a concern

Shizuoka Prefecture

  • Entire coastal area: Many regions with short tsunami arrival times, making early evacuation essential
  • Shizuoka City, Hamamatsu City: A certain number of buildings built under old seismic standards are present, with concerns about collapse risk
  • Eastern Izu Peninsula: Many areas designated as sediment disaster warning zones

Mie Prefecture

  • Shima Peninsula, Kumano-nada Coast: Areas where tsunami heights exceeding 10 meters are anticipated
  • Yokkaichi City, Tsu City: Secondary disaster risk from petrochemical complexes
  • Southern Kii Peninsula: Areas where the occurrence of isolated communities is a concern

Checkpoints for Preparedness


In addition to region-specific risk information, this service provides the following checklist items:


1. Confirm the nearest evacuation shelter for your home/workplace

2. Check if your location falls within a tsunami inundation zone

3. Confirm the seismic resistance rating of your building

4. Decide on communication methods and meeting points with family

5. Check emergency supplies (minimum 3 days' worth, 7 days recommended)
