Abstract

Provided are a damage determination information system, a server device, a terminal apparatus, and a program that can realize at least one of the improvement of the convincing feeling for a damage determination result, the reduction of an investigation cost, or the decrease of fluctuation of the damage determination results by a plurality of investigators. A provisional damage determination result is acquired, and a server device extracts a plurality of disaster images related to the provisional damage determination result from a disaster image database ( 15 ) and displays the extracted disaster image on a display device of a terminal apparatus. Input of an instruction for settling the damage determination result is received from the terminal apparatus that displays the disaster image, and the settled damage determination result is registered in a damage investigation result database ( 17 ).
