碩士 === 逢甲大學 === 環境資訊科技研究所 === 93 === As following the development of economical industries and the transition form Taiwan’s social structure, we can clearly see that the phenomenon of urbanization is increasingly becoming serious. However, owing to the intensive developments and diversified activities in the city, it caused the frequent exploitation of fire and resulted in the increasingly incompatible land use. Therefore, fire accident has been grown into the familiar urban disasters in the metropolises of Taiwan. According to the statistical data form National Fire Agency, Ministry of Interior, R.O.C, from 1997 to 2003 the average of fire accidents were 14,157 per year. Then, it also caused 240 people to die, lead to 717 people to get hurt and brought about more than 4,300 million NT dollars in the loss of property. Hence, utilized the interview of fire fighting exports and the retrace of related literature in this study, I will try to sort the major element that affect the fire safety of building and use the Analytic Hierarchy Process method to find the factor’s weight of fire probability. Besides, adopting the fire survey reports (1999~2004) from the Fire Department of Taichung City, I utilize GIS technology and the orientation methods of house number to establish the map that can exhibit the spot of fire accidents in Taichung. Moreover, I also use the “Artificial Neural Network analytical method” to establish the analytic model that can display fire accident’s damage. Lastly, I utilize GIS technology to display the fire safety of existing buildings in the spatial map, and it will bring the consultation to the future land use or the precaution plan. According to the above methods and process, I found the most of buildings which have the higher probability of fire accidents gathering together at the old districts of downtown, industrial districts and the area that locate along the local high way. Then, the buildings which probably cause higher loss when it had fire accidents center on the old districts of downtown nearby, Taichung industrial district and the Xi-Tun industrial district that locate nearby the south side of Sgui-Nan airport. In short, we can conspicuously discover that the most dangerous area in Taichung gather at the downtown and industrial district.
