Past experiences on extreme emergencies and disasters have taught communities the value of preparedness. Information is key in responding to health crises especially in areas where health capacity is challenged. This chapter explains the necessity of identifying appropriate health and disaster data and proposes its transformation to information needed for decision-making. It presents different examples of systems and datasets that were used for the management of response during disasters and extreme emergencies. By introducing examples from Japan and Philippines, this chapter also points out that aside from medical data, nonmedical data, such as lifestyle and hygiene information, are necessary to protect the health of disaster victims.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ngatu, Nlandu Roger</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Muzembo, Basilua Andre</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Choomplang, Nattadech</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kanbara, Sakiko</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Wumba, Roger</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ikeda, Mitsunori</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mbelambela, Etongola Papy</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Muchanga, Sifa Marie-Joelle</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Suzuki, Tomoko</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Wada, Koji</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Al Mahfuz, Hasan</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sugishita, Tomohiko</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Miyazaki, Hiroyuki</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ikeda, Shunya</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hirao, Tomohiro</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Malaria rapid diagnostic test (HRP2/pLDH) positivity, incidence, care accessibility and impact of community WASH Action programme in DR Congo: mixed method study involving 625 households</style></title><short-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Malaria Journal</style></short-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2021</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2021/02/27</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://doi.org/10.1186/s12936-021-03647-9</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">20</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">117</style></pages><isbn><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1475-2875</style></isbn><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Malaria is one of the most prevalent and deadliest illnesses in sub-Saharan Africa.

However, deep learning requires much training data, and detection performance notably degrades when the target area of vehicle detection (the target domain) is different from the training data (the source domain). To address this problem, we propose an unsupervised domain adaptation (DA) method that does not require labeled training data, and thus can maintain detection performance in the target domain at a low cost. We applied Correlation alignment (CORAL) DA and adversarial DA to our region-based vehicle detector and improved the detection accuracy by over 10% in the target domain. We further improved adversarial DA by utilizing the reconstruction loss to facilitate learning semantic features. Our proposed method achieved slightly better performance than the accuracy achieved with the labeled training data of the target domain. We demonstrated that our improved DA method could achieve almost the same level of accuracy at a lower cost than non-DA methods with a sufficient amount of labeled training data of the target domain.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sritart, Hiranya</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Miyazaki, Hiroyuki</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kanbara, Sakiko</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hara, Takashi</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Methodology and Application of Spatial Vulnerability Assessment for Evacuation Shelters in Disaster Planning</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sustainability</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2020</style></year></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://www.mdpi.com/2071-1050/12/18/7355</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">12</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">7355</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Evacuation shelters are the most important means for safeguarding people in hazardous areas and situations, and thus minimizing losses, particularly those due to a disaster. Therefore, evacuation shelter assignment and evacuation planning are some of the critical factors for reducing vulnerability and increasing resilience in disaster risk reduction. However, an imbalance of shelter distribution and spatial heterogeneity of a population are the critical issues limiting the accessibility of evacuation shelters in real situations. In this study, we propose a methodology for spatial assessment to reduce vulnerability and evaluate the spatial distribution of both shelter demand and resources, considering spatial accessibility. The method was applied to the case study of Mabi, in the context of a disaster caused by the 2018 flooding. We applied this approach to evaluate the area and identified the vulnerability of the evacuation shelters and the residents. The proposed method revealed that 54.55% of the designated evacuation shelters and 59% of the total population were physically vulnerable to the flood. The results highlight, using GIS maps, that the total shelter capacity was significantly decreased to 43.86%. The outcome assessment addressed specific vulnerable shelters and the imbalance between the demand for and resources of each shelter. Accordingly, this study provides practical information and a valuable reference for supporting local governments and stakeholders to improve future disaster planning, prevention, and preparedness.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>10</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Itabashi, Koichiro</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Miyazaki, Hiroyuki</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Iwao, Koki</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nakamura, Kazuki</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">MATSUOKA, Masashi</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Shibasaki, Ryosuke</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">A Method for Constructing Urban Extent Map from ALOS/PALSAR Satellite Data</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">32nd Asian Conference on Remote Sensing</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ALOS/PALSAR</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">classification</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">microwave sensor</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">urban extent map</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2011</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2011</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://a-a-r-s.org/acrs/index.php/acrs/acrs-overview/proceedings-1?view=publication&amp;task=show&amp;id=1005</style></url></web-urls></urls><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Taipei</style></pub-location><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">TS9-1</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Currently, global urban extent map of high accuracy and high resolution have been constructed mainly using optical sensor including ASTER/VNIR. However, there are some regions where urban areas are not correctly detected due to cloud cover and similar reflectance among land cover classes. To solve the problems, we used microwave sensor images of ALOS/PALSAR, which has an advantage in enabling observation in all weather conditions. This study aims at examining the possibility of using ALOS/PALSAR images as an alternative data resource for constructing urban extent map. Firstly, to determine useful ALOS/PALSAR observation mode, we examined how often ALOS/PALSAR images are taken in the regions for which an existing method using ASTER/VNIR images could not detect urban area correctly. Secondly, we collected ALOS/PALSAR satellite images, and examined effect of local-incident-angle-corrected images of ALOS/PALSAR taken by Fine Resolution Mode which can reduce distortion of pixel values due to local incident angle. We also performed unsupervised classifications on the ALOS/PALSAR and local-incident-angle-corrected images. Finally, we discussed ground truth datasets for image classification.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>10</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Itabashi, Koichiro</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Miyazaki, Hiroyuki</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Iwao, Koki</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nakamura, Kazuki</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Shibasaki, Ryosuke</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">A method for detecting and mapping Urban Area by ALOS/PALSAR data</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">31st Asian Conference on Remote Sensing</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ALOS PALSAR urban extent map high resolution</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2010</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2010</style></date></pub-dates></dates><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hanoi, Vietnam</style></pub-location><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Currently, global urban extent map of high accuracy and resolution have been constructed mainly using optical sensor including ASTER/VNIR. However, there are some regions where urban area is not detected because of cloud cover and similar reflectance among land cover classes. In the present work, by using ALOS/PALSAR, a microwave sensor, we proposed a method for detecting urban area which cannot be detected by ASTER/VNIR optical sensor and developing urban extent map in high accuracy and resolution. We mainly used satellite images taken by Fine Resolution Mode of ALOS/PALSAR. Local-incident-angle corrected images by Fine Resolution Mode were used for this method. The proposed method consists of sampling pixel values and ground truth data at urban and non-urban area from ALOS/PALSAR images; constructing classifier based on the pixel values and ground truth data; and classifying pixels into urban or non-urban area. We compared the results with urban extent map derived from ASTER/VNIR optical sensor images, and evaluated the possibility of using ALOS/PALSAR data for developing urban extent map. In addition, we examined accuracy improvement of detecting urban area using both ASTER/VNIR and ALOS/PALSAR images. The proposed method could classify regions which were misclassified by ASTER/VNIR optical sensor images, and develop urban extent map in high accuracy and resolution.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Miyazaki, Hiroyuki</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tanaka, Ayako</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Iwao, Koki</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Shibasaki, Ryosuke</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">A Method for Developing Urban Extent Map of High Accuracy and Resolution by Integrating ASTER/VNIR Images and Existing Urban Extent Maps</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Journal of the Japan Society of Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2009</style></year></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://ci.nii.ac.jp/naid/10025572312/en/</style></url></web-urls></urls><number><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></number><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">日本写真測量学会</style></publisher><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">48</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">82–96</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language></record></records></xml>
