The occurrence of ground subsidence and sinkhole in downtown areas, which threatens the safety of citizens, has been frequently reported. Among the various mechanisms of a sinkhole, soil erosion through the damaged part of the sewer pipe was found to be the main cause in Seoul. In this study, a random forest model for predicting the occurrence of sinkholes caused by damaged sewer pipes based on sewage pipe information was trained using the information on the sewage pipe and the locations of the sinkhole occurrence case in Seoul. The random forest model showed excellent performance in the prediction of sinkhole occurrence after the optimization of its hyperparameters. In addition, it was confirmed that the sewage pipe length, elevation above sea level, slope, depth of landfill, and the risk of ground subsidence were affected in the order of sewage pipe information used as input variables. The results of this study are expected to be used as basic data for the preparation of a sinkhole susceptibility map and the establishment of an underground cavity exploration plan and a sewage pipe maintenance plan.

The purpose of this study is to construct a pattern database of pipes and cavities buried in the ground to prevent ground subsidence. To do this, it developed a pattern template algorithm using Open CV and applied it to the results of GPR detection results of tank. As a result, proper pattern database construction was possible. Since the results of this study are based only on limited experimental results, it is expected that more realistic data will be constructed if various field data and detection results of large test beds are supplemented in the future.

산업이 고도로 발달함에 따라 자기장의 정밀 측정 및 발생 등에 대한 관심이 증대되고 있다. 정밀 자기장 측정기를 이용하여 생체.의료공학, 지하광물 및 매설물 탐사, 지진 및 전파방해 예측, 지구물리탐사 및 우주 자기장 분포 측정, 항법장치, 국방 및 우주항공분야, 송유관 부식 연구 등에 활용되고 있다. KRISS에서는 첨단 자기분야의 표준/정밀측정 보급 지원을 위해 자기장 범위 $20\;{\mu}T$ ~ 1.2 mT에서 비자성 실험실, 지구자기장 상쇄장치 등을 이용하여 불확도 (4 ~ 21) ${\mu}T$/T, 자기장 범위 1 mT ~ 2.5 T에서는 헬름홀스 코일, 전자석, NMR 자기장 측정기 등을 사용하여 불확도 (10 ~ 80) ${\mu}T$/T의 표준을 유지하고 있다. 자기장는 자속(magnetic flux) 및 자속밀도(magnetic flux density)로 나눌수 있으며, 그 SI 단위는 웨버(Wb, weber)와 테슬러(T, tesla)이다. 그러나 아직까지 자성재료 등의 특성을 측정하는 전문가들은 SI 단위보다는 지금까지 널리 사용되어온 cgs 단위인 맥스웰(Mx, maxwell), 가우스(G, gauss), 외르스테드(Oe, oersted) 등에 익숙해져 있다. 앞으로 자기분야 전문가들도 기본 SI 단위로부터 소급이 유지되는 SI 자기단위의 사용을 기대해 본다.

산불은 전세계적으로 발생하는 가장 주요한 재해현상 중 하나이다. 산불 감시나 산불에 의한 피해지역의 효과적인 관측은 피해 지역을 최소화하고, 효율적인 피해 복구 계획 수립에 매우 중요한 기초자료를 제공한다. 광학 위성 자료를 활용한 산불 피해지역 탐지가 널리 사용되고 있음에도 불구하고, 산불에 의한 연기 또는 구름 분포에 의해 종종 사용상에 제약이 있다. 본 연구에서는 2000년 4월 강원도 고성, 강릉, 삼척, 물진 지역에서 발생한 대규모 산불을 연구 대상지역으로 하여, 1998년-2000년 동안 획득된 RADARSAT-1 SAR 영상을 이용하여 산불 피해 지역 감시의 활용성을 연구하였다. 산불에 의한 산림 피해지역 관측을 위해 RADARSAT-1 SAR 영상의 후방산란관의 변화를 통한 변환 탐지를 수행하였다. 산불 피해지역에서 산불 전에 비해 산불 후에 획득된 RADARSAT-1 SAR 영상의 후방산란값이 증가하는 것으로 관측되었다. RADARSAT-1 SAR 영상으로부터 관측된 산불 피해 지역은 Landsat-7 ETM 자료와 현장 조사 자료에 의한 산불 피해 지역과 매우 상관성이 높은 것으로 관측되었다.

Non-destructive technique to measure internal structure and constant distribution of material can be widely used to exploration of mineral resources, identification of underground cables and buried pipelines, and diagnostic imaging in medical area. In this paper, inverse scattering solution based on 2-dimensional EM scattering problem should be considered and formulated.

In this paper, we propose Automatic detection system of underground pipe which automatically detects underground pipe to help experts. Actual location of underground pipe does not match with blueprint due to various factors such as ground changes over time, construction discrepancies, etc. So, various accidents occur during excavation or just by ageing. Locating underground utilities is done through GPR exploration to prevent these accidents but there are shortage of experts, because GPR data is enormous and takes long time to analyze. In this paper, To analyze 3D GPR data automatically, we use 3D image segmentation, one of deep learning technique, and propose proper data generation algorithm. We also propose data augmentation technique and pre-processing module that are adequate to GPR data. In experiment results, we found the possibility for pipe analysis using image segmentation through our system recorded the performance of F1 score 40.4%.

In order to get geologic information necessary for underground installation of water pipe, seismic refraction profiling was applied to the southwest side of the Seomjin River which flows between Namwon-gun, Cholabuk-do and Gokseong-gun, Cholanam-do. Before obtaining the in-line refraction data, walkaway data were recorded with 1 m geophone interval and -36∼+36 m offset range. From the walkaway data, it is interpreted that a dry soil layer with the average velocity of 585 m/s covers wet sediments with the average velocity of 1,326 m/s. The second layer overlies basements nearly horizontally with the average velocity of 4,218 m/s. Refraction profiling of 220 m long with the geophone interval of 2 m is interpreted with the Generalized Reciprocal Method (GRM). Three layers are identified with average velocities of 688 m/s, 1,473 m/s, and 3,776 m/s, respectively. The depth to the bedrock impossible for ripping ranges between two extremes, 1.51∼2.43 m and 2.25∼3.54 m, depending upon thickness of the hidden layer. A typical shortcoming of refraction method, the hidden layer problem, prevents accurate estimation in depth of the second layer.

Recently, the frequent occurrence of ground subsidence in urban areas has caused increasing anxiety in residents and incurred significant social costs. Among the causes of ground subsidence, the rupture of old water and sewer pipes not only halts the operation of the buried pipes, but also leads to ground and water pollution problems. However, because most pipes are buried after construction and cannot be seen with the naked eye, the importance of maintenance has underestimated compared to other structures. In recent years, integrated physical exploration has been applied to the maintenance of underground pipes and structures. Currently, to investigate the internal conditions and vulnerable portions of the ground, consolidated physical surveys are executed. Consolidated physical surveys are analysis techniques that obtain various material data and add existing data using multiple physical surveys. Generally, in geotechnical engineering, consolidated physical surveys including electrical and surface wave surveys are adopted. However, it is difficult to investigate time-based changes in under ground using these surveys. In contrast, surveys using cosmic-ray muons have been used to scan the inner parts of nuclear reactors with penetration technology. Surveys using muons enable real-time observation without the influence of vibration or electricity. Such surveys have great potential for available technology because of their ability to investigate density distributions without requiring as much labor. In this paper, survey technologies using cosmic ray muons are introduced, and the possibilities of applying such technologies as new physical survey technologies for underground structures are suggested.

The most common method of pipeline inspection is to use a remote-controlled-machine equipped with a CCTV, which, however, has many limitations to accurately inspect pipeline condition. In case of a typical CCTV, since the camera looks at the end point of the pipe, the locations of the defects and distance-readings are often different. In addition, the quality and accuracy of the inspection is highly dependent on the operator's skill and experience. In this research a new system is developed by use of the image processing techniques and the lens combination. The image acquisition system is developed that acquires the front and the side view of the pipe simultaneously. Side view unwrapping and stitching technology using image process techniques are developed which delivers high resolution image data.
