Recently it is supposed to be a shift to regional geography. To understand the emergence of the new regional geography, It must be remarked that the progress of capitalist production and consumption change our conceptional apparatus such as representation of space. Region is one of the important mode of representations of space and time. In the Fordist capitalism of 20th century, development is regarded as diffusion of capitalist expansion of western worlds. State must support capitalist growth through regional policies which include constructing of infrastructure and regionalization of spatial division of labour. The regional development theories contributed as ideology and policy tools for state intervention. The region was simply one of the most logical classification tools of organizing geographical informations. In the theories of regional development, the concept of region was reduced to the formal unit of classification. As the transition from Fordism to flexible accumulation, the region is again acquiring its 'identity' and 'authenticity'. In this tendency of the revival of region, it is expected that good achievement could be made in the field of regional geography through relevant research methods. It is also believed one of the available means are historical approaches to the cultural and ecological regions. The historical approaches to cultural and ecological regions are not only correspondent with cultural development strategies of local governments, but also could convey regional identities through both narrativization of place and aestheticization of landscape.

This paper pays attention to the fact that not only Gangnam but also cities outside Seoul that attempt to follow the Gangnam model are deeply involved in Korean developmental urbanism. It examines discursive materials such as newspaper articles, newspaper advertisements and online debates as significant sources of information showing how certain districts are materially and discursively constructed by diverse actors in the national capital and in other cities. The result of in-depth interviews lasting up to two hours reveals local residents' imagined geographies. The article emphasizes that the so-called "Gangnam problem" should be understood as existing beyond the physical, symbolic and administrative boundaries of Gangnam, in cities that follow the Gangnam model. This study helps to provide an epistemological foundation for more equitable, sustainable and de-developmental urbanism.

Development of 5th generation mobile telecommunication technology is visualizing ideal hyper-connected social information and communication technology (ICT). In particular, virtual reality (VR) technology is at the starting point for new expansion and leaps. This work defines virtual reality as media in this context and collects and analyzes discourse on its scalability around space and communication theory. We first elaborated the concept, starting with the early discussions of the virtual reality concept in 1990, and discussed the relationship between the physical world and digital information, expression and interaction immersion as a medium, simulation, art creation theory, and finally evolutionary development. In conclusion, beyond the discourse on the technology of virtual reality, academic subjects were required to have theoretical frameworks on cognitive science, neuroscience, social science, and humanities issues (ethics, personality, etc.) for the development and evolution of virtual reality. In other words, it is time for the evolution of virtual reality to be discussed, which can be moved beyond.

국지적 지역에 내리는 강한 강도의 강우는 많은 인명 및 재산 피해를 발생시킨다. 이러한 피해를 예방하기 위해 도시 침수 예측에 관한 연구가 오랜 기간 수행되어 왔으며, 최근에는 다양한 신경망(neural network) 모델이 활발히 이용되고 있다. 강우 지속 기간이나 강도는 일정하지 않고, 공간적 특징 또한 도시마다 다르므로 안정적인 침수 예측을 위한 신경망 모델은 강건성(robustness)을 지녀야 한다. 강건한 신경망 모델이란 적대적 공격(adversarial attack)을 방어할 수 있는 능력을 갖춘 모델을 일컫는다. 따라서 본 연구에서는, 도시 침수 예측을 위한 시공간 신경망(spatio-temporal neural network) 모델의 강건성 제고를 위한 방법론을 제안한다. 먼저 적대적 공격의 유형과 방어 방법을 분류하고, 시공간 신경망 모델의 학습 데이터 특성 및 모델 구조구성 조건 등을 활용하여 최적의 강건성 제고 방안을 도출하였다. 해당 모델은 집중호우로 인해 나타날 다양한 관망에서의 침수 피해를 각각 예측하고 피해를 예방하기 위해 활용될 수 있다.

The concern on new regional geography in Korea has emerged in the 1990s under the influence of paradigm shift of Western geography, that is, the withering of positivist geography and the introduction of grand social theories into geography. New regional geography in Korea also seems to have developed in the rapidly changing process of glocalization of capitalism which has accompanied with the transformation toward post-Fordism with high-tech innovation, development of transportation and communication technology with time-space compression, and increasing social and cultural mobility with change of identity. But it can be pointed out that discussion on methodology for regional geography in Korea has been shrunken since the mid 2000s, and there has been relatively little empirical research with synthetic approach to region. But more concern on methodology in terms of place, territory, network, scale, etc. rather than the concept of region itself has increased, and empirical researches on regions in specific fields of human geography have been promoted. It is argued that the traditional distinction between synthetic and analytic approaches seems no longer significant. But geographers need to extend the concept of region in relation to other diverse spatial concepts, and to purse simultaneously structural analysis on glocalization process and practical strategies responding positively to the process.

Even though rarely recognized as a separate approach, the institutional approach in geography is defined as an attempt to seek an explanation of the phenomena of geographical interest through focusing on the effects of institutional structure and actions. It can provide interdisciplinary links with other works and can offer complementary explanations for geographical interests. The concerns for institutions in geography can be found in early studies, the study of the state, the managerial approach, and the regulation approach. The Korean financial systems can provide good examples to apply institutional concepts into creating spatial outcomes, as it has been regarded as a useful tool to promote Korean economic development. Behind the current spatial pattern of financial systems, four different stages of institutional changes are identified in Korea. Each stage has different institutional features reflecting unique spatial implication.

최근 민간사업분야에서도 GIS를 응용하려는 시도가 많아지고 있다. 몇몇 도전적인 기업들은 수년 전부터 GIS를 도입하여 주요의사결정에 활용하고 있으며, 매년 GIS 활용도를 높여가고 있다. 실제 본 연구도 경쟁이 치열한 국내 할인점 시장에서 GIS 도입을 통해 근본적인 경쟁력 확보를 희망하는 기업의 경영과제를 해결하는 것으로 시작됐다. 이러한 기업들은 지역의 특성을 단편적으로 파악하는 것에 만족하지 않고 지역별로 어떠한 전략을 수립할 것인지에 대한 해법을 요구하며, 이를 통해 새로운 수요창출을 기대하고 있다. 매출을 높이는 것은 모든 기업의 주요 경영목표이다. 이러한 점을 고려할 때 GIS를 이용한 매출예측은 기업들에 큰 의미가 있다. 특히 백화점이나 할인점 등의 점포를 운영하는 기업들에는 객관적인 경영전략을 지원하는 도구로 활용할 수 있다. 그래서 단순한 예측 수준을 뛰어 넘어 매출 향상을 위한 방안 마련까지 요구되고 있다. 기존의 GIS를 이용한 매출예측은 특정 반경 내 인문사회적 통계자료를 추출하여 통계적 방법에 의해 매출을 추정하는 과정을 통해 이뤄진다. 이는 과거의 정보를 기반으로 현재를 진단하는 효율적인 방법이다. 하지만, 어떠한 전략으로 내일을 준비해야 하는지에 대한 해법을 제시하기에는 한계가 있다. 이러한 이유로 기존방법론은 예측에 대한 통계적 설명력이 높다 하더라도 기업들의 현장업무에서 활용되지 못하고 있다. GIS를 이용한 매출예측 방법이 기업활동에 활용되려면 과거의 매출정보를 기반으로 현재를 진단하는 역할, 지역별로 차별화된 마케팅 전략 수립, 국지적 단위의 시장 진단과 매출 향상 방안 등을 지원하여야 한다. 본 연구는 매출발생이 예상되는 지역의 경계를 설정하여 상권영역을 생성하는 방법론이 핵심이다. 다시 말해 예상되는 매출 영역을 폴리곤 단위로 추출한다는 것이다. 기업들에 어느 정도의 매출이 어떤 지역에서 발생할 것인지에 대한 정보를 제공하면 지역별 매출 향상을 위한 전략 마련이 가능하다. 수치만을 제공하는 매출 예측방법과 비교하면 구체적인 마케팅 활동을 지원할 수 있는 특징이 있다. 이러한 방법론은 기업의 마케팅 활동에 실질적인 도움을 줄 것으로 판단된다.

This study reviews geographical research trends on 'New industrial agglomeration' in Korea and recommends research issues for further studies. Recent studies on industrial agglomeration region have typically concentrated on empirical case studies from new 'perspectives'. As a result, the establishment and theorizing of frameworks for analysis on industrial agglomeration have been given too little attention. To solve this problem research should be conducted to develop frameworks for analysis integrating noneconomic factors and existing economic factors, a strategy emphasized in new industrial agglomeration theory. By doing so, research investigating viability mechanism and generalization will be invigorated. Meanwhile, research focused excessively on social and cultural conditions of region-related networks between actors in economic space at specific scales should be excluded. In addition, academic research on vitalizing industrial agglomeration region, such as cluster policy, should be strengthened. In order to conduct these research objectives effectively, it is necessary to vitalize overall understanding among researchers of industrial agglomeration and provide a place for collaborative learning.

It is difficult for systematic and flexible control reflecting regional characteristics with only public policies that control the landscape. Also, in the event that there is no preceding quantitative index calculation, it is impossible for the public society to come to an agreement. Therefore, the development of a shielding analysis simulation methodology that makes data processing modeling that can be interlinked with the urban information system is a very meaningful study. Thus, this study presents urban space shielding simulation technologies and quantitative analysis methodologies using 3D graphic engines and deduces the optimal design by integrating the data of the geographic information system (GIS) in order to suggest the potential as an analysis model that can be used in future urban information systems.
