Storm and flood-related hazard maps

In June 2022, the City of Nagoya introduced new hazard maps for storm and flood-related disasters. These maps feature information on the extent of flooding, flood depth, and how long an area is estimated to remain inundated, along with information on designated emergency assembly points where you can initially evacuate to protect yourself from the immediate danger of the disaster.

The maps are published in Japanese on the City of Nagoya website, but if you can recognize some key expressions, you will be able to get useful information from the map that could save your life and the lives of those around you. Make time to study the hazard maps for your home, school, or workplace, and help yourself to be prepared for when an emergency arises.
