“…The second issue is to conduct an analysis on “facility capacity,” which is the capacity of facilities that accept evacuees. There have already been many studies and reports with a focus on facility capacity targeting public places of refuge . However, none of them has defined the capacity of food facilities, dealt with in this study from a perspective of “place of refuge.” Particularly for this study, which conducts an analysis on accessibility from a viewpoint of securing food, it is significant to deepen the analysis by focusing on food stockpiles along with the size of facilities.…”

The purpose of the study is to analyze the effect of establishing places of refuge in commercial facilities in addition to public facilities. To this end, the differences in accessibility of the places of refuge were analyzed across the Kii Peninsula and Matsuzaka City among various cases of facilities providing food. The analysis of the Kii Peninsula shows that supermarkets would be most useful. The analysis in Matsuzaka City shows that the facilities providing food would be useful to increase robustness and decrease the distance to refuges but less effective than refuge buildings on the coast in case of tsunami.
