Disaster Evacuation Sites - TSV
Disaster evacuation sites are facilities or locations designated by municipal mayors based on the Disaster Countermeasures Basic Act. There are two main categories: designated emergency evacuation sites (places to escape from disaster dangers urgently) and designated evacuation shelters (facilities for staying for a certain period). Additionally, there are types such as wide-area evacuation sites, temporary evacuation sites, tsunami evacuation buildings, and welfare evacuation shelters. Each has different purposes, duration of stay, and facilities, requiring appropriate selection based on the type of disaster.
