초록

최근 네비게이션 시스템이 대중화되면서 랜드마크 연구는 도시지역 이동을 위한 인지적 시스템 개발에 중요한 연구주제가 되고 있다. 지역 커뮤니티에게 있어서 랜드마크로 구성된 도시이미지는 지역 네비게이션에 있어서 장소인식을 위한 참조프레임 역할을 담당한다. 일반적으로 네비게이션은 새로운 지역을 이동하는 탐험(Exploration)과 친숙한 지역을 이동하는 네비게이션으로 구분할 수 있다. 후자의 경우, 도시이미지는 지역 커뮤니티에게 있어서 장소인식에 있어서 핵심적인 역할을 담당한다. 커뮤니티의 장소인식은 시스템적으로 연결된 장소들로 구성된 도시이미지에 기반을 두어 이루어지는 지식기반의 추론의 과정이다. 본 연구에서 도시이미지의 구조는 계층적 지식으로 간주하여 커뮤니티를 위한 지역이동을 위한 도메인 온톨로지로 표현하였다. 커뮤니티에게서 수집된 도시이미지는 커뮤니티의 인지정도에 따라 엥커(anchor), 디스턴트(distant)와 로컬(local)분류하였다. 온톨로지 모델링 기법을 이용한 도시이미지의 표현은 지역 커뮤니티의 지리적 지식으로 명시화하고 도시지역 안내를 위한 에이전트를 위해 재사용이 가능한 지식으로서 유용한 의미를 갖는다.

Nowadays, the navigation system is very popular to general public and the study of landmarks has an important role to develop the cognitive systems for regional navigation. The city image is composed of landmarks that are well-known to regional community and they are the reference frame for place recognition in urban navigation. In general, the case of navigation can be categorized as two kinds. The first is to explore the new region and the second is to navigate the familiar region. In case of latter, the city image has a critical role in place recognition for regional community. Place recognition of a community might be a knowledge-based inference on the basis of city image which is composed of the systematically connected places. In this study, the mental structure of urban image is regarded as a hierarchical knowledge and represents it as domain ontology for the regional navigation of a community. The city image of a community is assumed as the collection of landmarks, which are categorized as anchor, distant and local according to spatial familiarity of community. Representing city image as a regional knowledge using ontology modeling method is an essential step to make the geographical assumption of a regional community explicit and reusable for the regional agents who will provide the regional guide in LBS age.
