AI Data Inc. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Takahito Sasaki; hereinafter 'AI Data'), a company specializing in the utilization of enterprise data and AI, has launched an upgraded version of 'AI Resilience on IDX', a generative AI platform for disaster prevention and national resilience. This update introduces the new '7 Advisor Models', which cover all areas of disaster prevention and national land management.
▼ AI Resilience on IDX: An AI Platform Specialized for Disaster Prevention and National Resilience
Background: Moving to the 'Next Stage' of Disaster DX — Urgent Need for Information Integration and Faster Decision-Making
In its first iteration, 'AI Resilience on IDX' successfully converted disaster knowledge—such as disaster manuals, response case studies, training records, and recovery histories—into an AI-accessible format, providing decision-making support for field personnel and commanders.
However, the challenges facing Japan's disaster prevention and national resilience go beyond simple knowledge management. On the ground, the following structural issues remain unresolved:
- Delayed Decision-Making Due to Information Fragmentation: Weather, river, landslide, shelter, road, power, and infrastructure inspection records are managed separately by different organizations. The 'time-consuming integration' during a disaster is a root cause of damage escalation. - Personalization of Disaster Prevention Know-How: Disaster response capabilities decline as veteran staff retire or transfer, making it continually difficult to standardize quality nationwide. - Unclear Investment Priorities for Aging Infrastructure: It is difficult to comprehensively evaluate the deterioration levels, accident risks, and repair costs of bridges, tunnels, levees, water supply, and sewage systems, hindering the ability to 'invest first in the truly dangerous locations.' - Disaster Prevention Disparities Among Municipalities: While some local governments are adopting AI, disparate systems prevent collaboration, creating a 'disaster prevention disparity' dependent on the financial strength of the municipality. - Chain Risks to Industry and Economy Caused by Disasters: There is a lack of mechanisms to consolidate and optimize responses to the compounded impacts on transportation, communications, power, medical care, and logistics.
To solve these challenges, AI Data has equipped AI Resilience on IDX with the '7 Advisor Models.' The platform's functions have been vastly expanded to serve as a 'National Disaster Prevention Advisor OS' covering all domains of disaster prevention and land management.
What is the '7 Advisor Models'? — AI Divides and Integrates All Areas of Disaster Prevention and Land Management
The '7 Advisor Models' comprise seven specialized AI advisor functions built on the knowledge base (IDX) of AI Resilience on IDX, each tailored to a specific expert domain of disaster prevention and national land management. Each advisor handles the knowledge and response guides for its respective domain. By coordinating with each other, they provide end-to-end support from peacetime planning and training to emergency decision-making and recovery.
Advisor 1 | Weather & Disaster Advisor — Integrates response knowledge for heavy rains, floods, and landslides Converts response manuals, case studies, and checklists related to weather information, river water levels, and landslide hazard areas into an AI knowledge base. Field staff can instantly check 'how to act in this situation right now' via chat. It automatically generates response procedures tailored to the type, scale, and regional characteristics of heavy rains, floods, and landslides, accelerating initial responses.
Advisor 2 | Earthquake Advisor — Supports responses to tremor impacts, aftershocks, and building damage Converts initial response protocols, aftershock risk management, building damage verification procedures, and past case studies into knowledge. The AI instantly answers field queries such as 'What is the procedure for opening shelters while aftershocks continue?' or 'Where is the checklist for building damage verification?' It presents best practices from past earthquake responses to standardize response quality.
Advisor 3 | Infrastructure Advisor — Supports management of inspection records, deterioration information, and repair priorities Converts infrastructure inspection records, repair histories, and response manuals for bridges, tunnels, river structures, water systems, and slopes into knowledge. Based on accumulated inspection data, the AI assists in organizing deterioration status, considering repair priorities, and verifying cost-effectiveness. It provides data-driven evidence for 'what to fix first,' maximizing the effectiveness of national resilience investments.
Advisor 4 | Evacuation Advisor — Supports wide-area evacuation planning, assistance for vulnerable people, and shelter operations Converts evacuation plans, shelter operation manuals, and support cases for vulnerable individuals into knowledge. It instantly answers queries like 'What is the evacuation guidance procedure for people needing nursing care?' or 'What is the flow for checking shelter capacity?' It automatically generates evacuation procedures and checklists tailored to regional characteristics and disaster types, standardizing and accelerating evacuation responses.
Advisor 5 | Local Government PMO Advisor — Standardizes plan formulation, training scenarios, and emergency decision-making Converts municipal disaster prevention plans, BCPs, training records, and headquarters operation manuals into knowledge. During peacetime, the AI functions to support the review of disaster plans and generate training scenarios. During an emergency, it acts as an executive assistant to the disaster headquarters. It is a 'Disaster Prevention PMO Advisor' that reduces reliance on veteran staff and realizes uniform disaster response capabilities across any municipality nationwide.
Advisor 6 | Land Management Advisor — Supports optimization of land use, disaster resources, and recovery priorities (Text relating to Land Use Planning continues from original source...)
