Downtown of Takamatsu is located mainly on delta and fill-up lands and was extensively damaged by storm surge due to No.0416 typhoon in 2004. Earthquakes in the Nankai Trough, typically of magnitude more than M 8, have been extensive damaging to the city every hundreds years and the next one is expected to occur before middle of 21st century. Deltic deposit of downtown of Takamatsu is composed of the Holocene sandy sediments. The reclaimed lands are composed of unconsolidated sandy and silty sediments, dredged soils and waste materials. Therefore, liquefaction and successive tsunami of 2m+ are the serious threat to the city. This paper estimates the seismic hazards in Takamatsu from the study of past disasters and liquefaction risk by the help of geo-informatics.}, publisher = {Society for Social Management Systems}, title = {Seismic Hazard in Takamatsu Japan}, volume = {2}, year = {2006} }
