Action plan for 2018

This year we are promoting data flow and theefficient use of geospatial information by
finally setting local base points for all
prefectural blocks, and also increasing
activities through measures such asencouraging collaboration between localities.

➢ UDC2018Kickoff
We held this year’s UDC kickoff event!
Venue: Komaba campus of The Universityof Tokyo

This is a visualized environment of residential area
predictions for 2015 to 2040 based on current population
distribution and facilities location data, estimated using
simple simulation with 14 indications. It shows how thefuture environment for residents will change according tocurrent trends.

This data shows pedestrian route spatial
arrangement information, including barrier-free
information such as road bumps, width and slopes,
as well as a walking history record and the name,location and status information of barrier-freefacilities.
This is composed of a walking history record link anda link connection node.

➢ We held the intensive seminar “Geospatial data master class” on 25th to 26th of June.
➢ The aims of this seminar was to learn skills for generating and visualizing
ideas with excise and debate based on the latest data and actions of theCabinet. A total of 10 participants, the majority from survey andarchitectural consulting, were joined by people from municipalities, GIS
vendors, manufacturing and a variety of industries for a productive seminar.
From participants:
I realized that there arevarious types of data insociety and want to take onthe challenge of combining
my information with the dataof the Geospatial Information
Center.

➢ A variety of data is uploaded to the Geospatial Information Center. By
combining this geospatial information with the diverse knowledge andmerit that various people can contribute, it is possible to generate newvalue and create a market that could not be achieved without diversified
geospatial information.Once again we realized these possibilities for thenew value of geospatial information at our seminar thanks to thearticipation of many people from various backgrounds.

- Mr. Katsunori ichizuki,
Yazaki Energy SystemCorporation- Mr. Hideo Kikuchi,
Municipality of Hadano-city

Debating agathering ofinterested parties isa great idea.

➢ We will continue to hold seminars
that provide opportunities forinnovative value development.
Please come and join us.
