Short summary
This paper is an attempt to develop a rapid tsunami evacuation decision support system for local decision makers. Based on the numerical results database of tsunami disasters, this system can quickly obtain the tsunami inundation and travel time. When an earthquake and tsunami occur, this system can rapidly provide information to assist with the tsunami evacuation operations.
