❓Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: How often is the disaster-map data updated?
A: This site syncs daily with the Ministry of the Interior's open-data platform for shelter, fire-rescue-unit, and emergency-operations-center locations; the most recent sync time is shown at the top of the page.
Q: Are shelters already open when an earthquake or typhoon hits?
A: Not necessarily. The data on this page is a standing roster of shelters that are normally available, not their real-time open status — for whether a specific shelter is actually open, its hours, and capacity, always follow the local government's (fire department or district office's) official announcement rather than acting on this page's information alone.
Q: What do the three layers (shelters / fire-rescue units / emergency operations centers) mean?
A: Shelters are places the public can go to for refuge when a disaster occurs. Fire-rescue units are fire-station locations, useful for finding the nearest fire station. Emergency operations centers are each county/city government's disaster-response command center, usually co-located with the fire department, responsible for coordinating disaster relief.
