Tokyo launch of centralized Tokyo Map platform

Overview

The Tokyo Metropolitan Government and GovTech Tokyo have launched ‘Tokyo Map,’ a centralized web-based platform designed to consolidate municipal mapping data into a single interface. Accessible via smartphone or PC browsers, the service integrates 10 different types of map data covering sectors such as disaster prevention, environment, digital services, welfare, and water supply.

The platform allows users to overlay multiple information layers or utilize pre-set themes for specific needs. These include ‘Protect yourself from summer heat,’ which combines heat maps with green spaces and drinking water stations; ‘Prepare for earthquakes,’ which aggregates damage estimates with free Wi-Fi and emergency water locations; and ‘Prepare for floods,’ which integrates inundation maps with utility information.
