自工業革命開始，人類的經濟活動急速發展，自此開始了大量的溫室氣體排放，而過多的碳排放更是加劇了氣候變遷的影響，世界各地的災害在這幾年也不斷頻傳，而台灣也不例外，台灣位處於亞熱帶季風區與環太平洋地震帶，每年的季風、颱風造成台灣多處的區域淹水，嚴重時更可能造成河水暴漲、土石流、山崩…等災情，而地震發生頻仍，常會影響到人民生命財產的安全，本研究希藉由整合各相關部門的相關開放資料，建立台灣地區整合性災害潛勢查詢平台，並可以方便、簡單、易用的工具，讓大眾認識到身邊可能發生的災害潛勢狀況，進而透過預防或相關措施降低災害可能帶來的風險。 本研究旨在整合台灣本島地區的各項災害潛勢，考量各災害下的危害度等級評定因子，當災害發生時，造成危害的原因可能不僅是單一災害，可能是受多個災害影響，透過平台整合不同災害類別並另外考量綜合災害評分，讓使用者可以更容易的了解其災害潛勢，開發者也能夠結合Web API使其能夠做更多元的應用。;While the Industrial Revolution kickstarted human economic growth, it also rapidly accelerated the impact of climate change by releasing greenhouse gasses into the air. The frequency of disasters has been increasing all over the world in the past few years. Taiwan is also vulnerable to these disasters. Taiwan is located in the Circum-Pacific seismic belt and subtropical monsoon zone. Therefore, monsoons, typhoons or earthquakes occur very frequently in Taiwan. These events have the potential to cause severe flooding in many areas of Taiwan every year. Excessive rain can sometimes even trigger flash floods, landslides, or debris flows. Earthquakes are common in Taiwan; they can cause enormous financial losses and even pose a threat to the lives of local residents. The purpose of this research is to design and develop an easy-to-use platform to identify potential natural hazards in Taiwan and hopes to raise public awareness of disasters and the importance of prevention and preparedness to reduce the impact of the disasters. The platform integrates the information from many different disaster-prone areas and hazard maps. Catastrophic disasters are more likely to be caused by multiple disaster events instead of just one disaster event. By defining rating factors for each type of disaster and calculating the severity score of each disaster and based on a comprehensive hazard score, users can understand each disaster′s information easily. Developers could also make use of the API from the platform as well as develop new services.
