The purpose of this study is to investigate if there is any regional distribution difference in the frequency of geographical location's name mentioned on the SAT Korean geography test. The reviewed items were used for geography subject test in Korean SAT exam in between 2005 and 2015. Researchers analyzed how often a location had been mentioned in the form of maps, captions, and graphs in the national college entrance exam for 11 years. The result indicated that 42% out of the 220 items were using map and about 33% of them represented a specific region. Especially, items related with climate, industries, and local area section contained a specific area information more frequently than others. Moreover, there were 76 cities mentioned in geography subject test on Korean SAT exam during 11 years and 25 places among them were referred to more than three times. The most frequently appeared city was Seoul followed by Incheon, Daegu, Busan, Gangneung, and Jeju and this result shows that there were some regional bias in geography test on the SAT Korean exam.

Based on the result of extraction of common factors executed in order to elucidate the visual attributes of street scenery by types through the rotation of 23 adjective variables by Varimax, the visual attributes expressed after the construction of the facilities using street scenery were anylized to be 4 factors including factor 1 through factor 4. Theexplanation of the 4 factor groups to explain the entire distribution was 65.3% and these factor groups are the psychological attributes felt when using facilities are constructed by securing the street spaces in downtowns and the factors were named as naturalness(factor 1), locality(factor 2), identity(factor 3) and clarity(factor 4) respectively. Based on the result of one-way layout distribution analysis, the preferences for street scenery by types were found out to show considerable differences at 1 % significance level. Based on the result of multiple regression analysis, all of the factors explaining preferences including factor 1 through factor 4 were significant at 1 % significance level. In case other conditions are constant, if the values of the adjective variables related to locality(factor 2) increase by 1 unit, the preferences which are the values of dependent variables will increase by 0.709. The variable with the largest relative contribution among the 4 factor groups was the locality(factor 2) factor group and on the contrary, it was found that the independent variable with least influences was the clarity(factor 4) factor group.

Typhoon Lusa in 2002 and Typhoon Maemi in 2003 caused the worst damage of landslide and debris flow to Gangwon-do. This damage includes severe damage in riverside road. The damage register indicates that this damage is concentrated on mountain areas in Gangwon-do. In recent years, the studies on GIS application to predicting landslide and debris flow have been progressing actively. Landslide risk map managed by The Forest Service is the representative one. In this study, we generated landslide and debris flow hazard maps using statistical analysis and deterministic analysis in Gangnung area where Typhoons caused severe damage to riverside roads. We built damage point GIS DB from damage registers of National Road Maintenance Agency and field survey, and verified accuracy of landslide and debris flow hazard maps using GIS methods.

This research was accomplished to screen the cultivar which is suitable in organic cultivation of the broccoli having good horticultural characteristics and the resistance to black rot. Thirteen cultivars of the broccoli were planted at Gangwon alpine areas of Pyeongchang county and Gangneung city and investigated the horticultural characteristics in 2006. Everybro, Tamsuerun, Nockjae, and Pilgrim had good horticultural characteristics in all two experimental fields. The resistance and susceptible reactions regarding the black rot of broccoli cultivars were different from according to two fields. This result means that physiological race of black rot pathogen distribute in Gangwon alpine areas. Everybro and Nockguck were resistance to black rot in all two experimental fields. Also these two cultivars had good horticultural characteristics. We recommend that Everybro and Nockguck will be suitable in organic cultivation.

The purpose of this study was (1) to examine the present state of English education for the 2018 Pyeongchang Winter Olympics preparations, and (2) to identify the need for an English language training program for international sports events. With these goals in mind, the information was gathered from telephone interviews with educational administration officials who were responsible for international sporting events. For the survey, a total of twenty-six participants responded to a questionnaire designed to gauge their self-perceived English instructional needs for international sporting events. The principal results obtained from this study were: the Pyeongchang Organizing Committee for the 2018 Winter Olympic Games signed an agreement with an official supplier of language training services. In addition, Gangneung city is providing a 'Global Leaders' Academy' and English programs for taxi drivers and citizens. The result of the survey shows that the majority of participants reported that an English language training program is essential for international sporting events and it should be different from general English language education.

This was a 2nd-year study aiming at developing the procedure of alternative system that was intended to restore not only biophysically disturbed areas but also psychologically and socially damaged community. It was suggested that this participatory restoration system could be constructed based on integrative categorization processes consisting of damage types and readiness of local residents for participation. Three case study sites-High-One resort, Lafarge-Halla cement, and high-altitude farmland near Gangneung city, were selected to apply the theoretical framework proposed as a result of 1st-year work. In order to develop introductory programs, key concepts such as forest for future, carbon offset forest, and healing forest, have been suggested based on analysis of 6 system components including human resources, communication, legal and institutional support, financial sources, restoration methods, and activity programs for each site. More detailed processes and procedures can be identified, defined, and refined after the end of final, 3rd-stage of the study in April of 2010.

Traffic accidents are caused by a combination of human factors, vehicle factors, and environmental factors. In the case of traffic accidents where rental cars are involved, the possibility and the severity of traffic accidents are expected to be different from those of other traffic accidents due to the unfamiliar environment of the driver. In this study, we developed a model to forecast the severity of rental car accidents by using Naive Bayes classifier for Busan, Gangneung, and Jeju city. In addition, we compared the prediction accuracy performance of two models where one model uses the variables of which statistical significance were verified in a prior study and another model uses the entire available variables. As a result of the comparison, it is shown that the prediction accuracy is higher when using the variables with statistical significance.

The main aim of this paper is to explore a strategy for the attraction of POSCO into Gangwon province through the collaborative network of industry-University institute-government. Although Gangwon province has abundant resources, the industrial development is stagnant owing to unfavorable conditions of industrial location. However, while attracting an magnesium smelting factory of POSCO into Gangneung city, the industrial development in the province faces a new phase for the industrialization in the region. Successful factors of the attraction are as follows; firstly, mutual collaborations of local government, research institutes, region-based firms; secondly, trust throughout rational proposals which are focused upon mutual regard of local government, POSCO and research institutes; thirdly, stategies for the attraction of POSCO which are based upon thorough analysis on such firm; finally, securing the demand market of forward industries.

Remote sensing data is used to increasing efficiency on benthic cover type survey. Satellite and aerial imagery has variance of reflectance by water column effect even if bottom is consisted with same cover type and condition. This study tried to analyze advances of surveying extent and accuracy through water column correction of CASI-1500 hyperspectral image. Study area is coast of Gangneung city, South Korea where benthic environment is rapidly changing with bleaching of coral reef. Water column correction coefficient was estimated using regression models between water reflectance ($R_W$) and depth for sand bottom then the coefficients were applied to whole image. The results shows that expanded interpretable depth from 6-7m to 15m and decreased variation of reflectance by depth. Additionally, water column corrected reflectance image shows 13%p increased accuracy on benthic cover type classification.

We will be establish the new $q(1{\leq}q{\leq}p-1)$ stores of firm $F_B$ to gain pop/(p+q) over rival firm $F_A$ that has already operate with p stores in a city of population pop. Han proposes inclusion-exclusion algorithm(IEA) that searches maximal pop top 5 location and select the maximum location take account of locate variation with increasing of $q=1,2,{\cdots},p-1$. This paper reduced the orignal graph into partial graph initially and search only q=1 node continually reduced in accordance with increasing $q=1,2,{\cdots},p-1$. If the final result is shown in the case of steel customer between q, the q locations farther separate in order to improve of solution. For the eleven experimental data, this algorithm is a relative simplicity and more optimal solution than Han's IEA.
