Abstract
A storage unit stores ranking information including an index value relating to past rainfall and a corresponding date-time and damage information including details of damage that occurred due to past rainfall and a corresponding date-time. A real-time data reception unit acquires a spot value and a forecast value of current precipitation. Also, a comparison operation unit computes an index value relating to current rainfall using the acquired spot value and forecast value. The comparison operation unit specifies, with reference to the ranking information, the date-time of an index value relating to past rainfall whose similarity to the computed index value relating to current rainfall is not less than a threshold value. An information output unit presents, with reference to the damage information, details of damage that occurred in a period whose difference from the specified date-time of the index value relating to past rainfall is in a predetermined range.
