that brings us to the draft recommended map. the map. hundreds of maps came before this one. hundreds of maps. this is our very best effort to date. some of her attendance areas are much bigger than areas. you'll notice that some of them look huge compared with others. that is, again, because the students aren't distributed evenly across the city escape. there are parks in which few, if any live. there are industrial commercial areas in which few people live. and there are areas of the city where fairly large share of the children go to private school rather than public school, although, of course, this could change somewhat with the implementation of the new assignment system. that was another thing we thought about as we were drawing the boundaries. some encompass very large areas, because they have greater capacity than schools that can serve fewer students, and so that's another reason that the areas vary in size. the shapes of the attendance areas are dictated by the very factors that i talked about already, including the major thoroughfares and what seemed to be logical

and this is what we call an alert map. it looks just like the shape map and has the same information on it. it shows the information as the red star and it shows the intensity of ground shaking for the -- the difference is this map is a pure prediction. and in fact the data that is this map was available before the strong shaking from this earthquake was felt here in san francisco. and i want to illustrate that in a few minutes. the idea is we could provide this kind of information seconds to 10s of seconds before the ground shaking is felt. and then people can use that to take action. and now we think of this in maps because of course we need to know what the ground shaking is everywhere. you and i as individuals. we don't care what the map looks like. all we're interested in is two numbers. what is the ground shaking going to do right where we're standing and how many seconds do we have until the shaking occurs. what we have to do is take the information and send it out to people so they know exactly what the ground shak

some say a map

>> map's are available on-line through subscription by various libraries through the sand born map company. the san francisco library for a period of one year had a trial subscription and the use did not justify the cost so they suspended and the public demand to return that may occur again. >> what is sand born. >> the short answer is, no. sand born was a mapping company that was part of a fire insurance program that went around cities all over the united states and maybe beyond and actually, physically, mapped by hand every building, hold that up for me -- every building and every out building and set of stairs and updated these map's on an annual basis walking around the city and unfortunately someone had the mistakes of canceling the subscription ten or twelve years back but we have these historical map's and their fantastic in many ways. they don't give you a full history of the building but at the snapshot, i think this was in the 40s. you can look that building and actually see, if you look carefully, you can see the number of floors. two floors with an addition in the back and a bu

we showed the maps to people in the area.y said they thought. >> that pacific heights was all rock. so that's surprising to see that it isn't. it's not true. >> but even more surprising is this area just a few blocks away. stan card lives along this block. >> living on rock, solid rock. >> not according to the map. this area is actually color coded red or landfill. the same type of soil that's in the marina. some other unexpected findings. seismologists say that a two storey wood frame building will have the same damage whether it is on sand or landfill. >> so that means that for those homeowners who live on sand, which is most of the city, i would say get rid of the false security. >> get rid of the false security. >> the map could ultimately change building codes throughout san francisco. >>> usds say a new computerized layering process has enabled them to create maps that would allow state officials to focus on areas most closely monitored or retrofitted for earthquake safety. >> and we don't have to worry about 80 miles o

it is titled mapping vulnerable populations. the goal of our presentation -- the goal of our presentation is to introduce to our disaster council mbs the project we have been working on called vulnerable population planning. this is a project that we been working on with the department of emergency management and i want to acknowledge the leadership that vicky hennessey and rob have shown on the project by making it a priority to integrate the emergency planning needs with -- for people with disabilities as long as with our manning for the citizens of san francisco as a whole. we also hope to engage our disaster councilmembers with this introduction and get some feedback from you for area that is you think we might best be able to use the information that we developed. i think the context for everybody is earthquakes. and we know that san francisco is at risk. we saw that in 1906 and to a lesser degree back in 1989. the 2010 seems to be shaping up the as the year of the major earthquake. and now -- earthquakes nationwide -- eart

map. that's what these green areas are. just enormous mission area. >> this is an interesting tid bit. most people don't realize. there was a creek that flowed out of a lake in the mission. the lake was three city blocks large. it was at 17th and valencia. there's a plaque out there. you could sail a boat up the creek that flowed out into the bay into the lake at 7 the and mission and go sailing. it was that big. that land was so valuable because everybody wanted to live east of twin peaks because the weather was better here. warm. they filled in as much land as they probably could. and then they were forceed to building on the other side of twin peaks. where the weather wasn't as nice. >> i live in inner sunset. in 1906. in the big earthquake, that area had dramatic effect. one building settled down into the lake bed. >> the largest loss of life was at 17th and valencia hotel. the fire department came in, drown the people in the basement and the fire came and killed a bunch more people. a

i have two maps showing estimated capacity surplus and deficit. what is the difference between the two? >> i noticed they were not in the powerpoint. >> no, they are not. this was part of the kind of evaluation of the areas to see, and we're going to have them. we are getting them blown up, and we will bring into the community meetings, but without saying what they are, it is going to be hard to have been circulating, we are trying to evaluate any potential surplus -- any potential tension between the number of children who are living in a school-attendance area and the number of seats in an area -- the number of seats available. one of the models takes out all of the children who attend city- wide schools or programs and all of the citywide schools and programs. for example, if you look at clarendon, -- yes. that is because in one, we said take out 50% of the seats. instead of saying it has a capacity of 100, we say it has a capacity of 50. and then, take out all of the children who live in that area going to a citywide school. we basically said

several more maps and. started why i want to show one of them to the to the audience especially one where you have europe from the point of view of the u.s. and i'm wondering did you speak to any american to help you make the map or do you come up with it on your own you know you have all of eastern europe here is a buffer zone for the commies in russia i mean spain and portugal are just mini versions of mexico and brazil france are all smelly people germany is known for dirty porn and turkey is just a big thanksgiving meal. that's really funny how is germany dirty porn and why aren't they nazis if the russians are commies. first of all about germany i think i got the idea from south park. which i love and obviously i can't claim the. classic american view but i think it's. germany famous for. their igor and. also i haven't done serious research. i mean i haven't interviewed people i haven't talked with people specifically about. oh all of the labels are my impressions from informal communication with. my f

that's when the united states army corps of engineers produced this map. it was intended to show that it was economically feasible and, in fact, desirable to fill another 60 percent of the bay. that was their intention. instead, when this map was published it alarmed the public and it motivated them to take action to prevent the bay from becoming little more than a broad river. they didn't like what the corps had predicted. the science fiction writer ray bradbury says the purpose of science fiction isn't to predict the future, it's to prevent the future that's described. i don't think the corps of engineers intended this report to fall into the category of great science fikds, but that's what happened. the present day bay looks more like this. bcdc was created to stop the uncontrolled filling of the bay and we've done that. in fact, we've reversed the shrinking of the bay. it's now 8,000 acres larger than it was 40 years ago and the conversion of salt ponds in the north and south bay to wetlands will make it another 26,000 acres larger. we are very proud o

so, >> still get that map >> they are downstairs today with the map. you can go to the puc's website. from sfgov. org. it's available on line. >> i want to talk about the hydrants. we have 2 types of hydrants in san francisco one is a backup water supply with big black plugs that's not drinking water. on the original roll out of the 100,000 hand outs they put a drinking water drop on the big hydrant. the reprints have the skinny knobby hydrants. the small little you know the british style smaller plugs much the big round one with the smooth head is not drinking water. the smaller standard white hydrant is the drinking water and the new reprint has the correct photo on it. >> that's a good thing to know. >> let me get through this last question of this and then we can open it up. how do a get a consultant to assess what i need to do to improve my building in the event of an earthquake and to help me to find softest spots in my house? >> urn fortunately dbi is not here they have a great table downstairs the dcht building inspection and they do all inspec

they have original print version of the sand born map from 1830s. building files and files on architects that practices in san francisco and major contractors that worked in san francisco their biographies and certain indexes that are not available else where. so i would suggest contacting them. >> and joining. it's a nonprofit organization that preserves san francisco heritage. >> okay i want to flip through some of these other materials we brought along to show you. not the building codes. here today, fantastic book you want to tell us about it. >> here today, is the end results of years worth of research done by the junior league of san francisco. a book published in the late 1960's and there's an enormous volume of research. architecture, social that went into the making and not every building researchs in the making of this book is published. there are background files that san francisco library history room, the planning department has an index but the library has on their web page the index you can download some you can go by the street and c

this map is the infamous lipofaction map. the green areas are the areas that will have potential lip ofaction. that is a loss of strength of material when it is subjected to vibration. it can occur in sand and silt. those have to be saturated or below the ground water level. you can almost type dismount tie t --tie this map -- this area right here is the same as this one. it is all silt and will liquefy. the marina is in this area here. you can correlate the advancement of the shoreline of san francisco with the potential for liquefaction. >> it is a perfect example. it is all sold and liquefaction. >> treasure island is unique. it was originally developed to be the location of the world fair with the understanding that once it was finished, that would become the location of san francisco international airport. it is 11,000 feet long. in those days, the thought that was more than enough to land any conceivable airplane. they thought it was ideal. they said that we have all kinds of sand out in the bay from the sacramento rive

i am action going to refer mostly to this larger map, because i think it will be a better idea. it is not possible to of schools in the center of attendance areas, and because of the distribution of students across the area, and not borrow -- all schools are ideally located, and there willvrúz=7adá3-mt3é located within one or two blocks of the boundary, and there are a lot better on the edge of the boundary, and there are a lot of reasons for that. Ñuhçabout some restrictions, se constraints, given the distribution, it is impossible to avoid that scenario. in some cases where the attendance areas are small, it either means that there is another school close to iÛ9í÷z- with larges either not densely populated or further from another school, and that is where you see these attendance areas. the community on the attendance areas, most of the conversations _xthat were focused on the midde schools as feeder patterns, but with email and with in-person meetings, we got a lot of feedback, and where we got specific feedback with regard to them, the first two bullets that are in blue, w

i am going to show you the parks map. this is a tool that maps out all of our destinations. that includes our parks, or pools, our golf courses, art and community centers. you can search. search for rossi. you can search by neighborhood. >> as you land on each park, not only does it tell you a little bit about the park, teachers, amenities, and events in the park. it tells you who from our staff is responsible for maintaining the park and how to contact them. it tells you what the park hours are and what the rest from ours are. there is a lot of friendly information. >> it also tells you parking options -- it also tells you part events. you have to clear first. choose any one of them. many of us may not know how to get there. you click on it. you will see a description of the facility, which we are calling an art center. you will see a picture, some of the statistics, and the address. click on the address. this opens up a google map with the location of the facility highlighted. we chose google maps because you can route driving, walking, biking, and public transit. >> if yo
