Abstract

Applying GIS to establish urban seismic prevention and disaster mitigation information system is an effective way to mitigation urban earthquake disaster. In this paper, the main components and its function of this information system have been expounded,and the construction of geodatabase has also been introduced in detail. Finally,models for the analysis of seismic risk,earthquake damage prediction of buildings,economy loss and the death of people have been analyzed.
