Large dams, which are critical infrastructures for disaster prevention, are exposed to various risks such as aging, floods, and earthquakes. Better dam safety inspection and diagnosis using digital transformation technologies are needed. Traditional visual inspection methods by human inspectors have several limitations, including many inaccessible areas, danger of working at heights, and know-how based subjective inspections. In this study, drone photogrammetry was performed on two large dams to evaluate the applicability of digital data-based dam safety inspection and propose a data management methodology for continuous use. High-quality 3D digital models with GSD (ground sampling distance) within 2.5 cm/pixel were generated by flat double grid missions and manual photography methods, despite reservoir water surface and electromagnetic interferences, and severe altitude differences ranging from 42 m to 99.9 m of dam heights. Geometry profiles of the as-built conditions were easily extracted from the generated 3D mesh models, orthomosaic images, and digital surface models. The effectiveness of monitoring dam deformation by photogrammetry was confirmed. Cracks and deterioration of dam concrete structures, such as spillways and intake towers, were detected and visualized efficiently using the digital 3D models. This can be used for safe inspection of inaccessible areas and avoiding risky tasks at heights. Furthermore, a methodology for mapping the inspection result onto the 3D digital model and structuring a relational database for managing deterioration information history was proposed. As a result of measuring the labor and time required for safety inspection at the SYG Dam spillway, the drone photogrammetry method was found to have a 48% productivity improvement effect compared to the conventional manpower visual inspection method. The drone photogrammetry-based dam safety inspection is considered very effective in improving work productivity and data reliability.

최근 드론 산업의 성장으로 드론 등록이 증가함에 따라 드론을 효율적으로 관리하기 위해 Remote ID를 도입하였다. 그러나 현재의 방법은 드론의 개인 정보 보호를 고려하지 않고 있어 드론의 개인 정보 노출과 보안 문제를 초래할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 하드웨어의 고유 특성을 PUF 를 활용하여 드론의 익명성을 보호하고, 신뢰할 수 있는 대상이 드론을 안전하게 식별할 수 있도록 하는 새로운 프로토콜을 제안한다.

Purpose: Safety inspections by existing personnel have been limited in evaluation and data securing due to concerns about the safety of technicians or difficulty in accessing them, and are becoming a bigger problem as the number of maintenance targets increases due to the aging of facilities. As drone technology develops, it is possible to ensure the safety of personnel, secure visual data, and diagnose quickly, and use it is increasing as safety inspection of facilities by drones was introduced recently. In order to further enhance utilization, it is considered necessary to base a consideration standard for facility appearance investigation by drones, and in this paper, research was conducted on dams. Method: To calculate the quality, existing domestic safety inspection and drone-related consideration standards were investigated, and procedures related to safety inspection using drones were compared and analyzed to review work procedures and construction types. In addition, empirical data were collected through drone photography and elevation image production for the actual dam. Result: Work types for safety inspection of facilities using drones were derived, and empirical survey results were collected for two dams according to work types. The existing guidelines were applied for the adjustment ratios for each structural type and standard of the facility, and if a meteorological reference point survey was necessary, the unmanned aerial vehicle survey of the construction work standard was applied. Conclusion: The finer the GSD in appearance investigation using drones, the greater the number of photographs taken, and the concept of adjustment cost was applied as a correction to calculate the consideration standard. In addition, it was found that the problem of maximum GSD indicating limitations should be considered in order to maintain the safe distance.

Along with global interest, drones are expanding the base of utilization such as transportation of goods, forest protection, and safety management, and cluster flights are being applied in various fields such as military operations and environmental monitoring. Currently, specialized networks such as e-UM 5G for services in specific industries are being established in Korea. In this regard, drone systems are also moving to establish specialized networks to provide services that are fused with AI and autonomous flight. As drones converge with various services, various security threats in various environments are also subordinated, and in response, requirements and guidelines for drone security are being prepared in Korea. In this paper, we propose a technology method for peer identification and safe information provision between cluster flight drones by utilizing a cryptographic module equipped with wireless LAN and quantum entropy-based random number generator in a cluster flight system and a mobile communication network such as e-UM 5G.

전주는 가장 한국적인 도시답게 모든 사적과 여 채가 있는 한옥마을의 건물이 모두 목재와 기와로 지어진 한옥으로 밀집되어 있어서 화재와 지진, 풍수해 시에 소방차나 구조차의 진입에 어려움이 있다. 이로 인해 초기 화재 진압 시간이 지연됨에 따라 인명피해와 함께 국보와 사적지가 전소될 수 있어 인명과 문화재 보전을 위해 소방시설의 확충과 안전관리가 절실하게 필요하다. 이에 재난 대비를 위한 방법으로 소방 드론을 활용하는 것이 최적의 방법이 될 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 메타버스 플랫폼인 로블록스를 활용하여 스마트시티-전주를 구현하였고, 소방드론을 활용할 수 있는 드론 소방서를 제안하였다.

Economic analysis predicts that the drone market will grow, and the growth of the toy and hobby drone market is expected to gradually expand. Drone expectations are rising due to the net economic function of drone market growth, but accidents due to improper management and operations are also increasing. The difference in toy drone performance is incomparably small compared to industrial drone performance, but the ordinary buyer can not know whether the difference can cause an accident during use. The toy drones used in this study were obtained from KC and CE certification, and 20 kinds of drones were used. The flight time ranged from a minimum of 3 minutes to a maximum of 12 minutes, and the control distance ranged from a minimum of 20m to a maximum of 380m. Therefore, it is necessary to secure product safety through sampling inspection of the radio wave output of toy drones, and it is also necessary to mount an algorithm that automatically lowers the altitude or hover when exceeding the limit flight distance. For future research, we will build data to establish toy drone safety standards through a altitude testing and impact testing of toy drone.

This research explores the utilization of Unmanned Aircraft Systems(UAS), or drones, within the construction industry, aiming to assess their current use and forecast their potential impacts. The study endeavors to present a comprehensive overview of approaches to overcome existing barriers to drone implementation. Through the analysis of survey responses and focus group discussions with 21 industry experts, the study reveals a significant recognition among participants of the need for drone adoption and the potential for technological advancement, despite the current limited deployment on construction sites. Participants predict that drones will substantially enhance construction safety and efficiency. The study identifies three primary obstacles to drone integration: 1) the expense associated with setting up a UAS monitoring framework; 2) challenges related to data exchange and management; 3) the necessity for professional training in drone operation. This research contributes valuable insights into the present usage of drones at construction sites, elucidating the anticipated advantages, current impediments, and prospective solutions for drone utilization.
