Abstract:

A geographic information system (GIS), or geospatial information system is any system that captures, stores, analyzes, manages, and presents data that are linked to location(s). GIS is the merging of cartography, statistical analysis, and database technology, natural resource management, precision agriculture, photogrammetric, urban planning, emergency management, navigation, aerial video, and localized search engines.Today the concept of GIS is widely used in different areas of research and mankind. The disaster management systems are most based on GIS today, and the core idea of those systems is the past earthquake experiences. Remote sensing image processing can help government assess earthquake damage quickly. Taking this technology integrated with the quondam system can improve the assessment’s precision of this kind of system. In this paper, we discuss a method which quickly evaluates the earthquake damage. Firstly, we discuss different cases and quick evaluation of earthquake damage by means of GIS based system. Secondly, analyzes the result by quick assessment. Thirdly, integrating the image processing module with the old system to get the new system, in which the assessment’s precision can be improved.
