Read the Tsunami Hazard Map (「あなたの街の津波ハザードマップ」を読もう)

2022.02.27

The City of Nagoya provides Tsunami Hazard Maps for areas of the city which could be at risk of inundation if tsunami were to occur. Although published in Japanese, knowing how to read a few of the captions on the map side will allow you to assess the potential hazard for your home, school or workplace. You can also check the location of Tsunami Evacuation Buildings.


For more on Tsunami Evacuation Buildings, see Be Prepared for Tsunami.
