Health risk assessments for the abandoned asbestos mine were usually performed with activity-based sampling (ABS) method, which was not a effective tool for indexing health risk on an exact small area of mine. A newly proposed potential index of health risk (PIHR) was applied with proper spatial determination of geographical information system (GIS) to assess quantitatively health risks. A new trial was applied to a certain abandoned mine in Boryong as follows: A high grade area of PIHR was estimated 7.8% of the whole area of the mine (about 27.3 ha). Based on US EPA IRIS (integrated risk information system) model considering lifetime excess cancer risk (LECR), the health risk assessment indicated that the high grade area increased from 3.0 ha through 12.9 ha to 19.5 ha with an increase of asbestos contents in soil from 0.36% (1E-04 level) through 0.1% (3E-05 level) to 0.04% (1E-05 level). These results can be effectively applied to determine reclamation area of the abandoned asbestos mine.

Local governments began to construct geographic information system to improve government productivity and performance. In support, central government organized a national commission for GIS. The master plan by NGIS has been the base for local government to participate in the construction of GIS at the local level in the under ground facilities management including water and sewers. The challenge faced by sewer facility managers includes controlling 'data accuracy'. The input for sewer data handling for efficient performance in local government requires accurate data. However data manipulation to get the 'good quality' data can be burdensome. Thus, the aim of this research is to provide the appropriate tool to guarantee the high quality of digital data in sewer facility management. It is helpful to pass the data examination by government as well as to insure confidence of decision and data analysis works in local government. In this research, error types of sewer data were classified and pointed the limitation of traditional examination methods. Thus this research suggested more improved method for finding and correcting errors in data input using sewer volume analysis and prediction model as immigrating sewer facility management work to Geographic Information System.

The aim of this Study is to suggest regional learning methods using Landsat ETM and IKONOS images in the 7th Social Studies Curriculum in high school. In the program of 10 grade social studies, curriculum is constructed on the focus of conceptual learning, excluded in practice and activities on the regional learning. Regional learning, which is to goal understanding of regional environments and establishment of identities, is an essential part in student's field work and investigation activities, but with difficulties in application of schooling in the present curriculum, intended to propose substitute methods with satellite images. This study suggests learning methods for perception of region with the resolution of satellite images. The results of the study may help to extend learning and interests on the geography with practical application to GIS and RS.

This research was carried out for analyzing watershed and river topography. The method based on experience and map was mainly used, but derived data are too much to effectively analyze. Therefore some researchers have introduced computer system using GIS technique and remote sensing data. This research used GIS and remote sensing technique for classifying and analyzing watershed and river topography. Also dendrochronology method was introduced for guessing the creation times of deposits. Stream order map, sub-basin delineation map, river-bed microtopograpy were produced through this research. These results may be used in planning for Donggang conservation.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the spatial cluster characteristics of fire using long-term fire data. For this, fire data which were broke out in the last 40 years were converted into GIS data and spatial analysis was performed at Gangwon-do province's minimum administrative district level. In order to grasp the spatial distribution of the fire, Moran's I, Geary's Ci and Getis-Ord's Gi*, which are methods that analyze the local indicators of spatial association(LISA), were used. By integrating the characteristics of the spatial distribution of fire by integrating the results obtained from each analysis, the advantages of the individual analysis methods were reflected in the study results. As a result of the study, hotspot areas of fire in Gangwon-do was derived out. Among the hot spot areas, some areas, where the fire frequency is higher than the adjacent areas, have been identified. The results of this study can be used as information for predicting the fire hazard area and relocating of fire-fighting facilities in the study area.

Public policy responses to the digital/information revolution and the micro-economic reforms that it facilitates have inspired exploration of the scope for local government implementation of digital spatial data handling(DSDH) of information relating to, among other things, asset inventory, environmental and utility management, address management, and planning. The results from these explorations are such that few doubt the value of bringing the public policies to practice, but diffusion rate and pattern of the approaches demonstrated by the scoping experiments will reflect institutional/cultural matters, indicators of the relative significance of which might be at least partly predicted from appraisal of case studies. This argument is exemplified by reference to case studies in adoption of DSDH by local government organizations in Korea and in Australia.

유비쿼터스 사회를 실현하는 핵심기술인 u-GIS 공간정보 기술은 데이터 스트림 처리 시스템(Data Stream Management System)과 지리정보 시스템(Geography Information System)이 결합된 플랫폼인 u-GIS DSMS를 요구한다. u-GIS DSMS는 GeoSeonsor에서 수집되는 센서 테이터와 GIS의 공간정보 데이터를 결합하여 처리하는 공간영역질의가 다수 요구된다. 이런 공간영역질의들은 특정 지역에 밀집하게 등록되는 경향이 있으며, 유사한 프리디킷을 가질 가능성이 높다. 이러한 특징은 공간영역질의가 특정 지역에 밀집되면 다수의 비슷한 연산들이 반복적으로 처리하기 때문에 시스템 성능이 저하 될 것이다. 이를 해결하기 위해 영역질의 색인기법 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 그러나 기존의 VCR-Index와 CQI-Index 기법은 질의영역을 셀 구조나 가상구조로 분할하여 처리하기 때문에 자원 및 연산을 공유 할 수 없어 질의 처리 속도가 현저히 저하되기 때문에 대량의 공간영역질의 처리에는 부적합하다. 그래서 본 논문에서는 공간영역질의의 효율적인 연산 공유를 위한 질의영역 밀집도 기반의 그룹화 기법을 제안한다. 이 기법은 질의영역의 밀집도를 이용하여 공간영역질의들을 그룹화 후 색인을 구성한다. 색인된 영역들의 데이터는 단일 큐로 구성 후 질의들의 프리디킷을 분석하여 자원 및 연산 공유기법을 통해 기존의 기법보다 처리 속도 향상 및 메모리 사용을 감소시켰다.

Most of current watermarking algorithms for GIS vector data embed copyright information by means of modifying the coordinate values, which will do harm to its quality and accuracy. To preserve the fidelity of vector line data and protect its copyright at the same time, a lossless watermarking algorithm is proposed based on storage feature in this paper. Firstly, the superiority of embedding watermark based on storage feature is demonstrated theoretically and technically. Then, the basic concepts and operations on storage feature have been defined including length and angle of the polyline feature. In the process of embedding watermark, the watermark information is embedded into directions of polyline feature by the quantitative mechanism, while the positions of embedding watermark are determined by the feature length. Hence, the watermark can be extracted by the same geometric features without original data or watermark. Finally, experiments have been conducted to show that coordinate values remain unchanged after embedding watermark. Moreover, experimental results are presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the method.

Recently, spatial data integration for geoscientific application has been regarded as an important task of various geoscientific applications of GIS. Although much research has been reported in the literature, quantitative assessment of the spatial interrelationship between input data layers and an integrated layer has not been considered fully and is in the development stage. Regarding this matter, we propose here, methodologies that account for the spatial interrelationship and spatial patterns in the spatial integration task, namely a multi-buffer zone analysis and a statistical analysis based on a contingency table. The main part of our work, the multi-buffer zone analysis, was addressed and applied to reveal the spatial pattern around geological source primitives and statistical analysis was performed to extract information for the assessment of an integrated layer. Mineral potential mapping using multi-source geoscience data sets from Ogdong in Korea was applied to illustrate application of this methodology.

In this paper the experiments of insulation characteristics by temperature change of $SF_6$ gas and liquid $SF_6$ in model GIS(Gas Insulated Switchgear) were described. From this results, the breakdown voltage was increased with a drop of temperature and an increase of the inner pressure in model GIS. The ability of insulation in liquid $SF_6$ was higher than that of the highly pressurized $SF_6$ gas. A liquid $SF_6$ discharge characteristics was caused by bubble formed evaporation of liquid $SF_6$ and bubble caused by high electric emission. It is considered that these result are fundamental data for electric insulation design of superconductor and cryogenic application machinery which will be studied and developed in the future.
