Geofence defines the area that UAS should not enter or exit to ensure the safety of their operations, and is considered as one of critical capabilities of the UTM (UAS traffic management) system. In this study, a geofence simplification method using modified perpendicular algorithm is proposed. The performances of the proposed geofence simplification method were evaluated with actual building data, and the evaluation results confirmed that the number of vertices can be effectively reduced while minimizing the spatial size of the geofence.

In the detection of an underwater target, there exists an optimal search depth for the sonar systems, at which the Probability of Detection is maximized. The optimal search depth is dependent on the depths of the target and sonar, the sound speed profile, and the bathymetry. In this paper, we address this question in range-dependent environments, particularly for the bathymetry with slope and with warm eddy. For range-dependent bathymetry, the typical sound profile in the East Sea of Korea was used. The detection range was greater when the sonar was located in deep water than in shallow water. As for the case of eddy, mesoscale warm eddy was used, and the detection range was greater when looking out of the warm eddy than when looking into the eddy.

Path loss prediction method, one of the most essential parts in measuring the service area in mobile telecommunication, has been developed for many years. But, wave propagation depends on many kinds of environmental factors such as frequency, distance, the heights of transmitting and receiving antenna and the terrain status(buildings in large city, hilly terrain, mountain). These are the main reasons that the propagation models developed in foreign environments can not fit into Korean propagation condition. In this paper, therefore, we performed the measurement in Korean terrain environment in pager frequency band after deviding the terrain characteristics into six types. With this measured data, we derived several curves that follows the long-term wave progagation behavior and developed the wave propagftion prediction model which calculates the field strength at any point in the service area. The proposed model estimates the field strength in two categories, LOS(line-of-sight), or non LOS. We applied this model using the digital terrain data base and compared with the measured data. The result shows that the errors were between 3~9dB, which turned out to be practical.

The intelligent excavating system(IES), the development in South Korea of which has been underway since 2006, aims for the full-scale automation of the excavation process that includes a series of tasks such as movement, excavation and loading. The core elements to ensure the quality and safety of the automated excavation equipment include 3D modeling of terrain that surrounds the excavating robot and the technology for detecting objects accurately(i.e., for detecting the location of nearby loading trucks and humans as well as of obstacles positioned on the movement paths). Therefore the purpose of this research is to ensure the quality and safety of automated excavation detecting the objects surrounding the excavating robot via a 3D laser scanning system. In this paper, an algorithm for estimating the location, height, width, and shape of objects in the 3D-realized terrain that surrounds the location of the excavator was proposed. The performance of the algorithm was verified via tests in an actual earthwork field.

This study explained the historical changes in the habitat structures based on the aerial photographs (1948, 1967, 1973, 1989 and 2010) of the mid-stream reach of the Mangyeong River. The habitat structure was divided into landforms and aquatic habitats. The landform was classified into bare land, vegetated land, water surface, farmland and artificial land. The aquatic habitat was classified into natural riffle, artificial riffle, run, head wando, tail wando, mid wando, pond and chute channel. The ratio of bareland decreased, and water surface and vegetated land increased after the excavation in 1970s and since the construction of weir in 1980s. As historical changes of aquatic habitat, ratio of run decreased sharply while mid wando increased sharply. aquatic habitats such as head wando, tail wando, and pond located on bars decreased dramatically.

Last review papers on Korean geomorphology and physical geography had been published in 1997 and 2000 respectively. A proposal to publish a book on Korean geomorphologists' achievement resulted in series of review papers in Journal of the Korean Geomorphological Association. This article aims to summarize these papers and introduce their findings to foreign scholars. On remarkable achievement is a fierce debate on the effectiveness of traditional mountain concept to explain the shape of Korean peninsula, which made the public's understanding of geomorphology widen to the general public. Reflecting public demands, concerns for the effects of coastal facilities on coastal erosion and conservation mind and scientific researches for the coastal sand dunes have increased so much. Geomorphological hazards such as debris flow attracted many concerned scientists, and geotourism-related papers in scientific journals increased thanks to the designation of first geopark in Korea. Research papers submitted to the famous foreign academic journals are increasing in numbers these days.

In other to construct a subway, we have to consider the position of the subway and acquisition of a topography, profile-map, cross-map, underground facilities map. All information of underground is demanded accurate location in other to prevent of accident of underground in subway construction. We must think about water lines, sewer lines, electronic lines, telephone lines, all urban gas-line because these are needed construction the subway. And attributes of underground facilities recorded on topography are characteristics. length, width. number, position, and depth of the lines. We have to record these attributes because these are very important to design map on subway construction. If we develop GIS (Geographic Information System) to use the exact in-formation of the underground facilities, we can be management safely and prevent very dangerous accident as fast as possible. In this study, attribute informations are linked geographic informations about underground facilities and we can develop Underground Facilities Management System(UFMS) to analysis dangerous region through dangerous degreed and predict accident range with these informations.

The Gochang beach is located in the southwestern coast of Korea along the eastern part of the Yellow Sea, comprising the Donghori, Gwangseungri, and Myeongsasipri beaches from north to south. The Gochang beach is characterized by macro-tide, open-coast, linear shoreline, and sand substrates. This study has investigated annual and seasonal characteristics of surface topography variation and sediment accumulation rate in the Gochang beach. During the five seasons of winter (Feb.), spring (May), summer (Aug.), and fall (Nov.) in 2014 and winter (Feb.) in 2015, the topographic elevation of total 315 sites was measured along three survey lines. It consists of 21 sites at 30 m intervals in each transverse line perpendicular to the shoreline, respectively. Annual accumulation rate of the Gochang beach in 2014 was -0.081 m/yr, indicative of erosional condition. Annual accumulation rates of the comprising beaches represent -0.091m/yr of the Donghori, -0.051 m/yr of the Gwangseungri, and -0.10 m/yr of the Myeongsasipri.
