Abstract

This paper introduces a new design of disaster state presentation system using large size and ultra high definition displaying system to satisfy requirement of quick and wide collecting and sharing disaster state information from disaster areas to make decision by the officers as decision makers who work in the countermeasure disaster headquarters. The proposed presentation system, we call LIVEWall, displays both GIS based location information and multimedia information in parallel on the same display to realize quick and correct understanding the disaster state in wide area. The collected disaster state information are processed as workspace and interactively controlled using workspace controller to display on the Tiled Display Wall (TDW). We designed and implemented our system using current available technology as a prototype.
