Realistic simulation of a possible earthquake is important for making rational plan against earthquake disasters. This paper proposes such a simulation method using a high resolution strong motion simulator and constructing a computer model of a whole city. The data for the model are provided by certain Geographic Information System, and underground structures and each building are modeled. The methodology of constructing these models is studied, since available data are usually limited. An example of a city model is constructed and earthquake simulation is made to examine the basic usefulness of the simulation.
