Resilire Inc. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director and CEO: Yuta Tsuda; hereinafter 'the Company') has added and commenced the provision of a 'Tsunami Impact Assessment' function to its supply chain risk management service, 'Resilire.' The system integrates real-time tsunami warning and advisory information released by the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) to automatically determine and visualize affected locations within the supply chain. This allows corporate crisis management personnel to immediately identify which locations are at what level of danger during widespread and complex tsunami disasters.
### Background
In Japan, preparing for tsunami risks is a top priority for corporate Business Continuity Planning (BCP). The latest Disaster Management Basic Plan (revised in 2024) by the Cabinet Office also strongly calls for rapid information dissemination and the securing of supply chains based on lessons from the Great East Japan Earthquake. However, when a tsunami warning is issued, many companies still manually check each of their locations against the forecast areas on a map. Matching hundreds or thousands of locations takes an enormous amount of time, delaying initial actions to protect lives and the decision-making required to avoid business suspension.
### Features and Characteristics
1. Real-time Integration of JMA Data: Information issued by the JMA (Major Tsunami Warning, Tsunami Warning, Tsunami Advisory) is reflected in the system within minutes of issuance, supporting immediate situational awareness.
2. Automatic Determination of Affected Locations: The system automatically determines the impact level of each location based on three criteria: (1) JMA Tsunami Forecast Zones, (2) Distance from the coastline, and (3) Estimated flood height based on hazard maps. Since determination conditions can be customized for each company, operations can be tailored to the company's specific site characteristics and risk tolerance.
3. Intuitive Visualization on Maps: Color-coded displays based on JMA standard colors (purple, red, yellow) are used according to the tsunami warning level. This allows users to intuitively determine at a glance whether a location is in a dangerous area.
