Abstract
Studies on disaster countermeasures utilize extensive simulations of earthquake, tsunami, people evacuation, and other targets, generating enormous amounts of data. The continuing development of computational capability has facilitated the increase of the simulation data size and the utilization of such “big data” has become a serious problem. With this background, the present study proposes, from the viewpoint of information science, the simulation data warehouse approach for the interactive analysis of large simulation data and describes a method of realizing a data warehouse. An objective of this study is to integrate different simulation data sets and enable exploratory analysis of multiple accumulated simulation data with high-speed response by data preprocessing. Further, the developed prototype system architecture and a case example of its use are explained.
