In order to prevent chemical accidents caused by human error, a chemical accident prevention and response training program using advanced technology was developed. After designing a virtual process based on the previously built pilot plant, chemical accident response contents were developed. A part of the pilot facility was remodeled for content realization and a remote control function was given. In addition, a DCS program that can control facilities in a virtual environment was developed, and chemical process operator training (OTS) that can finally respond to virtual chemical accidents was developed in conjunction with AR. Through this, trainees can build driving skills by directly operating the device, and by responding to virtual chemical accidents, they can develop emergency response capabilities. If the next-generation OTS like this study is widely distributed in the chemical industry, it is expected to greatly contribute to the prevention of chemical accidents caused by human error.

As the uncertainty of technology development and market needs increases due to changes in the global business environment, the interest and demand for R&D activities of individual companies are increasing. To respond to these environmental changes, technology commercialization players are paying great attention to enhancing the qualitative competitiveness of R&D. In particular, R&D companies in the marine and fishery sector face many difficulties compared to other industries. For example, the R&D environment is barren, it is challenging to secure R&D human resources, and it is facing a somewhat more difficult environment compared to other sectors, such as the difficulty in maintaining R&D continuity due to the turnover rate of researchers. In this study, based on the empirical data and patent status of private companies closely related to the R&D technology status, big data analysis, and simulation analysis methods were used to identify the relative position of individual companies' R&D capabilities and industrial perspectives. In this study, based on industrial evidence and patent applications closely related to the R&D technology status, the R&D capabilities of individual companies were evaluated using extensive data analysis and simulation analysis methods, and a statistical test was performed to analyze if there were differences in capabilities from an industrial point of view. At this time, the industries to be analyzed were based on all sectors, the maritime industry, the fisheries industry, and the maritime industry integration sector. In conclusion, it was analyzed that there was a certain level of difference in the R&D capabilities of individual companies in each industry sector, Therefore when developing a future R&D capability system, it was confirmed that it was necessary to separate the population for each industry and establish a strategy.

1973년 기상관측 이후 5년에서 7년 주기로 전국적 및 국지적 가뭄이 반복되고 있으며, 2010년을 기점으로 매년 가뭄이 발생하는 등 지역적 가뭄의 발생빈도도 증가하고 있다. 이러한 가뭄은 특히 농작물 생육 및 수확과 같은 농업 부분에서 가장 큰 영향을 미치고 있으며, 가뭄의 선제적인 대응을 위해서는 시공간적인 진행 상황이나 강도를 객관적인 기준을 통해 파악해야 한다. 가뭄의 경우 2016년 범부처 가뭄예·경보제를 시범 운영하여 2017년부터 본격적으로 시행하고 있으며, 매월 시군별 지역에 대한 농업용수의 가뭄 상황을 4단계 (관심, 주의, 경계, 심각)로 구분하여 발표하고 있다. 농업가뭄의 경우 저수지, 양수장과 같은 농업수리시설의 능력에 대한 의존도가 높아 가뭄이 발생했을 경우, 용수공급시설에서 용수공급이 가능한 물의 양을 파악하여 가용용수 능력을 평가함으로써 농업가뭄에 대응할 수 있는 정도를 파악해야 한다. 현행 농업용 저수지 물 관리 운영의 경우 과거 경험에 의존하는 실정으로 용수관리 및 물 관리자의 개인 역량에 따른 편차가 발생하고 있다. 또한, 전국 모든 농업용 저수지에 평년 저수율을 적용하여 가뭄단계를 산정하기 때문에 개별저수지의 특성을 반영하지 못하는 한계를 갖고 있다. 본 연구에서는 가뭄예·경보를 위한 농업용 저수지 저수율의 가뭄단계별 기준을 개선하고자 한국농어촌공사 관할 농업용 저수지 3,400개를 대상으로 백분위수 (Percentile)를 적용한 저수지 이수관리 기준을 제시하고자 한다. 또한, 빈도분석 및 연속이론 (Run theory)을 적용하여 과거 및 현행 가뭄 판단 및 이수관리 기준들의 가뭄에 대한 선제적 대비능력 및 민감성을 비교·분석하고자 한다.
