Abstract For analysis of wind disaster, it is important to examine not only wind speed but a lot of geography space information, for example building structure and land use. Use of GIS is very effective to exa...mine structural damage due to strong wind, because GIS can manage and visualize a lot of geography space information about strong wind damage. The purpose of this research is to clarify usefulness of GIS to arrange a lot of information and to predict wind damage. In this paper, we examined structural damage in the Hojo, Tsukuba City due to the tornado which occurred on May 6, 2012, as an example. As a result, it was confirmed that use of GIS is effective to analyze damage because of strong wind quantitatively. We need to examine much more structural damage examples using much information to predict future strong wind damageshow more
