The scale and cost of disasters are increasing globally, emphasizing the importance of logistics activities in disaster response. A disaster response logistics system must place logistics hub centers in regions relatively safe from disasters and ensure the stable supply of relief goods and emergency medicines to the affected areas. Therefore, this study focuses on locating drone delivery centers that minimize disaster vulnerability when designing a disaster response delivery network. To facilitate the transport of relief supplies via drones, the maximum delivery range of drones is considered and we employed a natural disaster vulnerability index to develop optimization models for selecting drone delivery center locations that minimize disaster vulnerability. The analysis indicates that while the optimization models to minimize disaster vulnerability increase the number of hub investments, these approaches mitigate disaster vulnerability and allows the safe and effective operation of a disaster response logistics system utilizing drone deliveries.

As demand for drone test flight is rapidly increasing, it is difficult for Goheung Aviation Center alone to meet the test flight demand. Newly developed drones or modified existing aircraft carry potential flight risks due to unpredictable flight performance or poor pilot skill when performing test flights outside the test site. Therefore, it is necessary to ensure sufficient test flight space for the safety verification of manned and unmanned aircraft. Therefore, this study analyzed the status of domestic flight test site and chapter 5 of ICAO DOC 9184-AN / 902 Part 1 (Airport Planning Manual). And to build a comprehensive flight test infrastructure, the methodology for preliminary evaluation of candidate sites for flight test sites and a method for evaluating infrastructure test sites was presented.

드론의 자동비행에서도 위급한 상황에 대한 대처로서 드론이 비행을 제대로 마치지 못하고 추락하는 사고를 막기 위하여 RC 송신기의 정교한 조작이 요구된다. RC 송신기가 위급상황에 필요하게 되므로, 항상 휴대하기를 원하나, 그 크기로 인해 휴대성이 떨어진다. 본 연구에서는 RC 송신기 기능을 휴대성이 우수한 모바일폰에 구현하여, 이 문제를 해결하고자 한다. 나아가 기존의 RC 송신기가 가지고 있지 않은 추가 기능을 함께 구현할 수 있으므로, 보다 기능적으로 성숙한 조작이 가능하도록 한다. 이를 통하여 컨트롤 모듈을 단일화하고, 안전사고에 대한 보다 신속한 대처를 지원할 수 있다.

Recently, with the development of high-tech industry, the use of the drones in various aspects of daily life is rapidly advancing. With technical and functional advancements, drones have an advantage of being easy to be utilized in the areas of use according to various lifestyles. In addition, through the diversification of the drone service converged with image processing medium such as camera and CCTV, an automated security system that can replace humans is expected to be introduced. By designing these unmanned security technology, a new convergence security drone service techniques that can strengthen the previous drone application technology will be proposed. In the proposed techniques, a biometric authentication technology will be designed as additional authentication methods that can determine the safety incorporated with security by selecting the search and areas of an object focusing on the objects in the initial windows and search windows through OpenCV technology and CAM-Shift algorithm which are an object tracking algorithm. Through such, a highly efficient security drone convergence service model will be proposed for performing unmanned security by using the drones that can continuously increase the analysis of technology on the mobility and real-time image processing.

This study discussed the meaning of a drone, and especially drone journalism and legal and ethical issues around that, at an introductory dimension, which is used in various social bases, but is still just an academic discussion at the beginning stage. As a methodology, content analysis was used. It seems that drone journalism has high diffusibility as a technology with high 'relative advantage', 'compatibility', 'trial ability' and 'observability' and low 'complexity' in terms of the diffusion of innovation theory. However, it will be very likely that controversies will be raised, such as safety issue due to collision and crash, a dispute over violation of privacy that may seriously infringe privacy like individual portrait rights and a controversy about the accuracy and source of information as drone filming low price and ease of use. Suggest solutions to legal and ethical issues based on existing research. Technical stability is required. Also, it is necessary to change the awareness of journalists about the drones coverage and to educate ethics, and it is necessary to establish social public opinion on issues such as privacy violation and establish system and legal measures through it. Future research is expected to carry out empirical research including journalists and public awareness surveys.

According to the Unmanned aircraft system Traffic Management (UTM), drones are permitted to fly up to 150m above ground, which is located in the atmospheric boundary layer where there is considerable wind fluctuation due to turbulence. Although it is difficult to predict when turbulence will occur drone aviation safety could be enhanced by having a better understanding of the characteristics of vertical profile of wind in the flight area. We used wind lidar (WIndMast 350M) to observe vertical profiles of wind at the test site for aviation meteorological observation equipment located near Incheon International Airport in July and September, 2022. In this study, we utilized the observed wind profile data to propose a technique for obtaining information that could help improve the drone aviation safety. The Fourier transform analysis is used to evaluate the temporal characteristics of the horizontal wind speed at various vertical levels up to 350m. We also examined the relative contribution of the variance of wind having scales of less than an hour, a crucial scale for drone flight, to the variance of wind having all scales at each vertical altitude for days with and without precipitation.

Drones, which show strong growth in the fourth industry, are commonly used for disaster response. In the event of an actual disaster, local governments should carry out 13 cooperative functions to respond to the disaster, but there are difficulties in collecting on-site information in places where it is difficult for people to access or grasp the situation. Based on the 13 collaborative functions that are essential for operations in the event of a disaster, a utilization plan of highly utilized drones was derived. Through the analysis of overseas cases and drone utilization by each department, a total of 10 out of 13 collaborative functions of the Disaster and Safety Countermeasures Headquarters (disaster situation management, emergency life safety support, emergency recovery, disaster resource support, traffic measures, medical and quarantine services, disaster site environment maintenance, social order maintenance, search, rescue, and emergency) were derived. These results can enhance the efficiency of the disaster response by presenting a plan to utilize drone images for each function.

High-resolution images taken by drones are being used for a variety of information, including monitoring. The management of agricultural facilities still uses mostly human survey methods. Surveying agricultural facilities, surveying the appearance of agricultural facilities, and the sleeping environment have legal and environmental constraints that are inaccessible to humans. In addition, in an area where information such as 3D maps and satellite maps are outdated or not provided, human investigation is inevitable, and a lot of time and money are invested. The purpose of this research is to design and develop drone system for field support incorporating AR smart glasses technology for the maintenance and management of agricultural facilities to improve the difficulties of using existing drones. In addition, We will also suggest ways to secure the safety of personal information in order to solve the damages caused by the exposure of personal information that may occur through video shooting.
