  • Objectives: To examine the regional mortality differences in The Republic of Korea according to geographic location. Methods: All 232 administrative districts of the Republic of Korea in 1998 were studied according to their geographic locations by dividing each district into three categories; "metropolis," "urban," and "rural". Crude mortality rates for doth sexes from total deaths as well as the three major causes of death in Korea (cardiovascular disease, cancer, and external causes) were calculated with raw data from the "1998 report on the causes of death statistics" and resident registration data. Standardized mortality ratios (SMR) were calculated using the indirect standardization method. Poisson regression analyses were performed to examine the effects of geographic locations on the risk of death. To correct for the socioeconomic differences of each region, the percentage of old ($\geq$ 65 years old) population, the number of privately owned cars per 100 population, and per capita manufacturing production industries were included in the model. Results: Most SMRs were the lowest in the metropolis and the highest in the rural areas. These differences were more prominent in men and in deaths from external causes. In deaths from cancer in women, the rural region showed the lowest SMR. In Poisson regression analysis after correcting for regional socioeconomic differences, the risk of death from all causes significantly increased in both urban (OR=1.111) and rural (OR=1.100) regions, except for rural women, compared to the metropolis region. In men, the rural region showed higher risk (OR=1.180) than the urban region (OR=1.l51). For cardiovascular disease and cancer, significant differences were not found between geographic locations, except in urban women for cardiovascular disease (OR=1.151) and in rural women for cancer (OR=0.887), compared to metropolis women. In deaths from external causes, the risk ratios significantly increased in both urban and rural regions and an increasing tendency from the metropolis to the rural region was clearly observed in both sexes. Conclusions: Regional mortality differences according to geographic location exist in The Republic of Korea and further research and policy approaches to reduce these differences are needed. to reduce these differences are needed.

  • In this paper, we design and implement an integrated management system for geographic data and vehicular images using a Geographic Information System (GIS). Integrated management of geographic data and vehicular images is very important to manage and to provide them to users effectively because of a large volume of vehicular images. To manipulate these data together, we consider a vehicular image as a polygon which is a type of popular geographic data types. The polygon represents a region in which spatial objects appear the vehicular image.

  • 무선 센서 네트워크에서 위치 기반 그리디 포워딩 기법(Geographic greedy forwarding) 은 한 홉 내의 주위 노드들의 위치 정보만 가지고 데이터 전송 경로를 설정하기 때문에 자신보다 목적지에 더 가까운 노드가 존재하지 않는 경우 데이터를 전달할 수 없는 경우가 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 보이드 문제가 발생한 환경에서 데이터를 효과적으로 전송하기 위해 향상된 위치 기반 라우팅 알고리즘(CGR: Cost based Geographic Routing)을 제안한다. 제안하는 CGR 알고리즘은 그림자 경계 영역을 설정하고 설정된 영역에 존재하는 노드들끼리 비용 함수 연산 알고리즘을 통하여 효과적인 그리디 포워딩이 수행되도록 한다. 시뮬레이션 결과, 제안한 알고리즘이 기존의 알고리즘보다 평균 전체 라우팅 경로길이가 줄어들 뿐만 아니라, 데이터 전달성공 비율이 높고 에너지 절감 효과가 뛰어남을 확인하였다.

  • 산업 구조의 변화와 교통 통신의 발달은 인간이 거주하는 공간의 범위와 의미에 대한 정형화된 인식의 변화를 요구한다. 또한 세계는 점차 특화되고 기능화된 권역들로 블록화 되어 권역간의 경쟁구조를 형성하고 있다. 이 같은 현실에서 현재의 최소 행정단위인 기초자치단체의 행정력과 공간적 범위로 세계화 속에서 경쟁하기에는 그 한계가 있다. 따라서 이 연구에서는 광역적인 수준에서의 의사결정을 위한 도구로서 GIS를 활용하여, 공간적으로 인접하여 위치하며 유사한 환경적 특징을 지니는 지역들이 공동의 문제 해결과 차별화된 경쟁력을 확보할 수 있도록 기능적 권역을 설정하고, 이렇게 설정된 각 권역별 특성을 분석하고자 하였다. 광역적 수준에서의 GIS 활용은 인접지역간의 비효율적 재정집행과 과다한 경쟁을 조율에 있어서 보다 개선된 객관성과 합리성을 제시할 수 있으며, 해당 지역들의 경쟁력 확보와 특화를 위한 광역자치단체 차원에서의 효율적인 예산집행과 계획수립을 가능케 한다. 대상지역인 강원도 지역의 권역설정 기준으로는, 자연환경이 상대적으로 큰 가치를 지니는 강원도의 특성과 수자원의 상대적 가치와 중요성을 고려하여, 자연적 지역구분의 요소 중 하나인 유역권을 기준으로 하였다. 그리고 이 연구에서는 유역권에 의하여 설정된 권역에 대하여, 환경과 관련된 여러 특징 중 지역의 경쟁력과 직접적인 관련이 있는 환경규제 현황을 그 분석 대상으로 하였다. 강원도 지역을 영동권역, 북한강권역, 남한강권역의 세 권역으로 구분하여 권역별 규제현황을 분석한 결과 북한강 권역은 군사시설 보호구역의 비율과 수자원 보호를 위한 규제비율이 상대적으로 높았고, 남한강 권역은 산림과 수자원관련 규제비율이 높았으며, 영동권역은 산림과 관련된 규제비율이 높았다. 강원도 지역의 경우 전반적으로 산림과 수자원에 관련된 규제비율이 높게 나타났다.

  • 이동 애드혹 네트워크(Mobile Ad Hoc Network; MANET)에서의 오버레이 멀티캐스트 기법에 대한 최근의 연구들은 동적으로 변화하는 MANET의 네트워크 토폴로지 정보를 유지하기 위해 심각한 오버헤드를 야기하는 문제가 있다. 본 논문에서는 그룹 멤버들의 지리 정보를 이용하는 영역(region) 기반의 새로운 오버레이 멀티캐스트 기법인 ROME(Region-based Overlay Multicast in MANET)을 제안한다. ROME에서는 토폴로지를 작은 영역들로 나누고 그룹 멤버들의 위치 갱신 범위를 하나의 영역으로 한정함으로써 위치 정보 유지와 관련된 오버헤드를 줄인다. ROME은 데이터 패킷의 목적지로서 해당 영역의 멤버들의 주소 목록이 아닌 목적지 영역의 중심점(center point)의 좌표를 사용함으로써 확장성을 제공한다. 시뮬레이션을 통해 ROME이 패킷 오버헤드 측면에서 다른 기법에 비해 성능이 우수함을 보인다.

  • This study was carried out to evaluate urban environmental structure in Taegu metropolitan region(TMR) with factor analysis, fuzzy set theory, geostatistic and geographic information system(GIS). The factor analysis could choose the representative one out of multiple variables and simplify the evaluation of the urban environmental structure. The fuzzy approach is an attempt to model an aspect of human thinking previously neglected; it starts from the premise that humans don't represent classes of objects as fully disjoint but rather as sets where transitions from membership to non-membership is gradual. The Geographic Information System(GIS) could connect attributes of factor scores derived from factor analysis to digital map by a method so called 'Spatial join'. The results obtained were as follows: Urbanization appearance was concentrated in the large cities, and this appearance was partial extremely, therefore, there has been a structural gap between urban area and agricultural area which was unified into the urban area. All inclinations didn't become worse after sudden urbanization. For example, suburban agriculture was developed as a large scale in the region near the large cities. Then it encouraged farmers in changing their old cultivating methods to the latest ones. But many districts in urban fringe had symptom of urbanization, the districts which were located between large cities have been developed gradually because of urban sprawl, and played a role in connecting each city. Therefore, due to the urbanization, forestry area and agricultural land, well conserved in the agricultural town, could be easily destroyed. In a different way with the urbanization of the Seoul metropolitan region, that of TMR was centralized upon the center of each city, and it was also very partial. But, because so many regions have the potentiality of urbanization, hereafter, the urbanization process in each region is likely to be different multifariously according to the urban management methods.

  • All kinds of environmental problems are related to each local and geographical environment. For this reason, it is necessary for schools in each region to provide environmental education which suits the geographical character of their particular region. In order to provide solutions to the environmental problems of each school's geographic region, the goal of this research is as follows: 1. We can make students realize the relationship between the human race and the environment by teaching according to the environmental conditions in each local area. 2. By teaching students about the problems in their own local environment, we can increase their concern about the state of their local surroundings. 3. When teaching about the environment, it is useful to use educational material which suits the character of each local region. 4. Students' interest in environmental preservation can be aroused through extracurricular environmental activities. The ares concerned are Chonnam and Kwangju City, which are divided into urban, industrial, rural, coastal, and mountainous areas. The conclusion about considering environmental education in environmental school social studies is as follows: 1. Kwangju and Chonnam should be divided into five sections, each with similar geographical environments. This will be an improvement over the old uniform approach to environmental studies in which all regions were treated as being the same each region will now receive special attention. 2. It is necessary to maximize the efficient use of the Environmental Education Building. When Media, environmental data and special materials for environmental education are used effectively, teachers can lead class effectively and students will be more interested in the class. 3. We can detect the cause of pollution, increase interest in the environment and easily solve environmental problems by collecting and displaying environmental educational materials. 4. An environmental education corner could boost students' interest in environmental problems and could act as a kind of bridge between theoretical and practical education. 5. Media and environmental data must be specialized according to the geographic character of each region. In this way, we can expect to improve the quality of environmental education over the simplistic environmental education of previous years. 6. Students will become interested in the problems of the region in which they live through social studies, and primarily through the environmental curriculum. 7. We can prevent learning deficiencies by making a consistent teaching plan. The teaching and learning methods will be improved and the teachers will be proud of what they teach. 8. The purpose of the Education Procedure Content Analysis is to make teaching and learning concise and easy by systematizing environmental and related subjects. This can be done by adding an environmental unit to the geographic section of social studies. 9. Citizens' interest in their own residential environment can be increased through action by sustaining environmental preservation movements to local region people.

  • Purpose: This study aimed to analyze the mobility of newly graduated nurses from regions where their nursing schools were located to regions where they took up their first jobs, and to identify factors influencing nurses' mobility. Methods: Data from the Graduates Occupational Mobility Survey, collected annually from 2010 to 2014 by the Korea Employment Information Service, were analyzed. The sample consisted of 1,488 graduates and 1,229 nurses who were employed on a full-time basis in hospitals. Multiple logistic regression analysis was conducted to identify factors associated with geographic mobility. Results: Among the nurses working in hospitals, 69.2% had their first jobs in their nursing school regions and 11.3% in their high school regions. Fifty-two percent of the nurses worked in the capital region; 47.2% thereof had moved from a non-capital region. Nurses were more likely to work in their nursing school region when they were female, were older, graduated from a high school located in their nursing school region, graduated from a college (vs. university), had a lower nursing school performance, and expected lower monthly wage, compared with those who left their nursing school region. Conclusion: Education and remuneration policies are required to reduce geographical mobility to the capital region.
