Necessity of Damage Monitoring System

  • To develop effective prevention strategies, most countries need better information.

    The damage prevention policy established by taking into consideration the priority and the risk factors can expect good results. Priority and risk factors, such as how serious the damage is, and where the intervention is most urgent, requires information on the number of damage, the type of damage, and the situation at the time of the damage.

    In most developed countries, a comprehensive damage monitoring system for damage, injury, disability, hazardous environment, and risk behavior due to damage is established to collect information on damage. Based on these data, As well as to provide a countermeasure against such problems.

    National damage data are used to set direction and priorities at the national level for damage prevention policies. Community damage data are used to provide information necessary to conduct prevention and safety promotion projects at the community level, The demographic characteristics of the victims, areas of damage, high risk stratum, and high risk environment.

Necessity of Safety and Surveillance Monitoring System(WISS)

  • Currently, most damage data is calculated by national statistics, so it is not easy to obtain damage data that can be used at the community level. For this reason, many municipalities have collected impairment data through their own investigations or in cooperation with local professional bodies. However, according to the research institute, it is difficult to compare and analyze each result due to differences in the method of selecting and collecting the data, the period of the data collection, and sometimes the result indicators of the same year are different.

    The site started to standardize the damage index to reduce the confusion. We have tried to build a more systematic, more reliable, and continuously calculated system with damages data that can be obtained at the current community level. In order to utilize the damage data as much as possible, Based damage monitoring site. We want to give the community the opportunity to voluntarily and actively participate in the community by providing information on the damage situation in our region, as well as departmental employees who are carrying out safety related projects.
