  5. 1 • In Taipei city government, there are continuous GIS projects to establish and update topographical maps, cadastral maps, transportation maps, public facility maps, address maps, etc, by different departments which are in charge of these information respectively. • These data are shared using web GIS technology by following international data standards. • Thanks to these data infrastructure, social-economic data, such as population distribution, historical sites, public facilities, can be displayed easily. • Risk maps are also made based on these basic maps.

  6. 2 • There are three risk maps in Taipei. • (1) the map of flood potential areas is prepared by the department of public works. • (2) the map of dangerous rivers and debris flow potential areas is prepared by the Bureau of Water and Soil Conservation, the Counsil of Agriculture in the national government, • (3) the map of land slide and endangered settlements is prepared by the department of economic development. • These risk maps are posted on the website. Any citizen can download them. • Although these risk maps are made based on 1/1000 topographical maps, more information should be further collected. • For example, the map of potential flood areas only indicates rough locations in terms of points. • The government is planning to further collect information concerning exact potential areas, and depths of water.

  7. 3 • Many universities have tight connections with local governments. • In Taipei city government, there is an advisory committee for disaster reduction which invites scholars from various universities as members. • I am the chairman of the Information division of the committee. I will chair a meeting to check the progress of the information system of the EOC of the Taipei City. Some issues concerning about information sharing among related departments will be discussed then.
