We have published a case study on Nittetsu Kowa Real Estate's "Development of a Damage Assessment System Based on Building Size."

Integrating VissQ with the IoT earthquake observation service to centrally monitor the damage status of managed properties.

**Overview** ■ Purpose: Understanding the damage status of managed properties, centralized monitoring ■ Category: Measurement Earthquake Disaster Prevention / IoT Earthquake Observation Service ■ Related Products: Measurement Earthquake Disaster Prevention System VissQ, IoT Earthquake Observation Service ■ Scope of Provision: System design, complete set of equipment, installation and adjustment, implementation support, operational support, service provision **Purpose of Implementation** Nippon Steel Kowa Real Estate aims to enhance disaster prevention capabilities, prioritizing the protection of the lives, livelihoods, and property of building users during natural disasters such as increasingly frequent and severe abnormal weather and earthquakes. As part of this initiative, the company has decided to implement this system in the buildings it owns and manages to quickly assess the safety of the buildings during an earthquake and ensure the safety and security of tenants and visitors. **Provided System** By installing seismometers in each building, the system "VissQ" and "IoT Earthquake Observation Service" visualize the building's shaking and support the safety and security of people and buildings during an earthquake. By using the "VissQ-Geonavi Integration Service," which displays the damage assessment results of VissQ on the cloud platform Geonavi of the IoT Earthquake Observation Service, centralized monitoring of the damage status of managed properties on the cloud is made possible.
