Description

<br><br>We estimated victim’s evacuation behavior by using their geographical and demographic personal data. Geographical data are victim’s address, victim’s sex and age, damage level of dwelling house and<br>uses of building. As a result, following points were made clear.<br><br>1. Inability to evacuate, or had a family who does not attempt to escape is considered to have led to the<br>generation of a plurality of dead or missing.<br><br>2. As a whole Yamada, the highest dead/missing rate occurred in the case of residential house has been "washed away".  It is about four times the case dwelling house is a "large-scale partial destruction or less".<br><br>3. There were many victims in the surrounding area of Funakoshi elementary school. They could not find a critical change of sea surface because of high sea walls and several big factory and warehouse buildings.  Such a lack of information seems to be one of causes of the delay of the evacuation.
