Safety information registered at evacuation centers is collected into a regional disaster prevention information/safety information management system managed by the emergency response headquarters. Furthermore, this system also provides regional information and disaster prevention information during normal use. To evaluate the IoT evacuation support system, we evaluated the system usability scale and the operability, relevance, and effectiveness of each function and many of the functions received high evaluation scores.
