They just acclaimed as shelter just designed resistant from the earthquake and the location just based on the Tsunami Evacuation Map in 2011 and Stanford University research evaluation for vertical evacuation buildings. The adequacy of evacuation routes to PVES need to be confirmed and have a prior recommendation for surround community how to get there safely. Based on traffic Google Map data create a real-time simulation for people act with their activity and it will project the how they reaction if they need to evacuation to PVES promptly.
