Disaster-Safety Platform Technology Development Program

Directorate for National Strategic R&D Programs

Develop technology and services that are commonly necessary across a variety of disaster-prone areas, or that can be easily applied to the needs of individual ministries or to a wide range of disaster situations in order to swiftly and effectively respond to various demands in the field

Research areas: S&E (disaster detection, prediction, and response technology)

Eligibility: Research groups (industry-university-research institute researchers)

Summary: Provide support for R&D for disaster platform-related technology and technology commonly required for various disasters

 * (Disaster detection platform) A standardized system that automatically detects abnormalities from various sensor data and efficiently manages and comprehensively processes and utilizes such data; (Disaster prediction platform) An integrated data simulation that predicts the occurrence of various disasters and composite disasters and the scale of damage; (Disaster response platform) Technology to trace materials and find locations that can be commonly used in multiple disaster scenarios

Period: 2 years, 3 years (2+1), 4 years (1+2+1)

Funding: 2–3 billion (USD 1.818–2.727 million*) per project per year
