  • Small-scale environmental impact assessments have limitations in terms of survey duration and evaluation resources, which can hinder the assessment and analysis of the current situation. In this study, we propose the use of drone technology during the environmental impact assessment process to supplement these limitations in the current situation analysis. Drone photography can provide rapid and accurate high-resolution images, allowing for the collection of various information about the target area. This information can include different types of data such as terrain, vegetation, landscape, and real-time 3D spatial information, which can be collected and processed using GIS software to understand and analyze the environmental conditions. In this study, we confirmed that terrain and vegetation analysis and prediction of the target area using drone photography and GIS analysis software is possible, providing useful information for environmental impact assessments.

  • An obstacle avoidance algorithm for a network-based autonomous mobile robot is proposed in this paper. The obstacle avoidance algorithm is based on the VFH(Vector Field Histogram) algorithm and two delay compensation methods with the VFH algorithm are proposed for a network-based robot with distributed environmental sensors, mobile actuators, and the VFH controller. Firstly, the environmental sensor information is compensated by prospection with acquired environmental sensor information, measured network delays, and the kinematic model of the robot. The compensated environmental sensor information is used for building polar histogram with the VFH algorithm. Secondly, a sensor fusion algorithm for localization of the robot is proposed to compensate the delay of odometry sensor information and the delay of environmental sensor information. Through some simulation tests, the performance enhancement of the proposed algorithm in the viewpoint of efficient path generation and accurate goal positioning is shown here.

  • Environmental impact assessment has been performed as preliminary assessment system in order to conserve environment value and minimize negative effect from development. Assessment based on data has been necessary to strengthen objectivity in process of Environmental impact assessment process. Furthermore extended use of spatial information in Environmental impact assessment system has been required through spatial information provided at government level and possibility connected with spatial information in Environmental impact assessment. However spatial information has not been systematically utilized in current Environmental impact assessment. Also the environmental impact assessment workers including assessment government employees, agencies of Environmental impact assessment document and review agencies lack an understanding in the concept of spatial information, so there is limit about their use to efficiently. In order to improve these limits in use of spatial information, this study suggested measures to standardize spatial information (coordinate and attribute table). To do so, based on coordinate and standards certified by the government, this study defined standard coordinates (GRS-80, central datum point, False East: 100000, False North: 200000) and established 9 default items. Lastly, the aforementioned standards were tested for actual environmental impact assessment projects. Standardization measures suggested in this study are expected to contribute to invigorate spatial information utilization in Environmental impact assessment and expand the scope of the assessment.

  • The transmission capacity of transmission lines is affected by environmental parameters such as ambient temperature, wind speed, wind direction and so on. The environmental parameters can be measured by the installed measuring devices. However, it is impossible to install the environmental measuring devices throughout the line, especially considering economic cost of power grid. Taking into account the limited number of measuring devices and the distribution characteristics of environment parameters and transmission lines, this paper first studies the environmental parameter estimating method of inverse distance weighted interpolation and ordinary Kriging interpolation. Dynamic thermal rating of transmission lines based on IEEE standard and CIGRE standard thermal equivalent equation is researched and the key parameters that affect the load capacity of overhead lines is identified. Finally, the distributed thermal rating of transmission line is realized by using the data obtained from China meteorological data network. The cost of the environmental measurement device is reduced, and the accuracy of dynamic rating is improved.

  • Environmental Sensitivity Index Map(ESI Map) is useful information for efficient and prompt contolling of oil spill accident. Environmental sensitivity information relating to oil spill is very various, so efficient access and utilization for environmental sensitivity information at control field is required. In order to improve the efficiency of controlling accident at the field, it is necessary to building digital ESI Map and GIS program. In this study, GIS database was built to utilize environmental sensitivity information at Yeosu and Gyunggi bay. And the ESI Map program which is focused on the control job was developed. IMO/IPIECA's guide to make the ESI Map and Korea Coast Guard's guide to collect information for the control information map were referenced to capture environmental sensitivity data and build GIS database. The symbology of environmental sensitivity layers was defined and functions for supporting control job were implemented in ESI Map program. For the future works, the program in this study could be applied to ESI Map program for the whole coastal area of Korea and it could be the essential element technology in marine pollution control supporting system.

  • The international environmental activity and environmental education began in 1970's. Environmental education in Korea was emphasized since the Forth National Curriculum. The Environmental Curriculum was regarded as one of the most important part in the Sixth National Curriculum in Korea. Environment-related reference texts of Elementary school were already developed. Soon, 'Environment' of middle school and 'Environmental Science' of high school will be developed. The purpose of this study were to analyse environment-related texts in the Fifth National Curriculum and to measure how much environmental education has achieved. As a environmental text for regular class, selected the environmental part in 'Science Part 1' and as environment-related reference text, 'Survival and Environment'. The environmental part of 'Science Part 1' was unit [Life and Environment]. According to the analysis of objectives, most of unit objectives were not stated in a detailed and precise manner. When the goals of environmental education were divided into four fields as follows, knowledge and information, skill, thinking and attitude, behavior and participation, unit objectives were mostly emphasized on knowledge and information of environment, exactly 44.5% of unit objectives and 89.6% of subunit objectives. The degree of relationship between unit objectives and contents was low. All the Check up-problems were about knowledge and information of environment. Environment-related reference text, 'Survival and Environment' was the only reference text for high school students in Korea and was organized in the form of the regular curriculum text. It was developed in Korean Education Development, Center with support of Korean Environmental Ministry in 1990. According to the analysis of 'Survival and Environment', the objectives of units and subunits were less stressed on knowledge and information than those of unit [Life and Environment] in the environmental part of 'Science Part 1' On the other hand, they were a little more stressed on skill, thinking and attitude, behavior and participation. And fifteen of all the seventy subunit objectives were not related with contents. In organization, this text included Thinking problems, Experiments and Inquiries, Reading, Developed studies and Check up-problem etc. It was remarkable that Inquiries leaded to individual activities and Developed studies to group discussions or individual inquiries. And as Check-up problems were presented as a form of activities, students could achieve many various objectives at the same time by solving one problem. To measure the achievement of environmental education by questionnaire, 497 high school students in total were selected from five different schools. Scores in subtest 'behavior and participation' and subtest 'thinking and attitudes' were 13.19 and 18.18, respectively. Actually, most students had a positive thinkings and attitudes in their hearts about environmental problems, but many of them actually did not take actions to solve environmental problems and to protect environment. Scores in subtest 'knowledge and information' and subtest 'skill' were 10.76 and 10.81, respectively. The higher the score students got in 'knowledge and information', the higher the score in 'skill'. It implies that learning of skills is based on learning of knowledges and informations about environment has not always ensured positive thinkings and attitudes or active behaviors and participations to solve environmental problem.
