When a disaster strikes, where should you go, and how? Find out by walking your own evacuation route.
Cocoico, the evacuation-support web app being developed by students of the Kim Laboratory (School of Data Science, Yokohama City University), guides each participant to an evacuation site suited to their own situation, such as physical condition and support needs. Participants walk to high ground or a designated tsunami evacuation building and experience evacuation for real.
No app download is needed. Everything runs in your smartphone's browser.
