Recently many small area estimation methods using the lattice data analysis have been studied and known that they have good performances. In the case of using the lattice data which is mainly used for small area estimation, the choice of better neighborhood information system is very important for the efficiency of the data analysis. Recently Lee and Shin (2008) compared and analyzed some neighborhood information systems based on GIS methods. In this paper, we evaluate the effect of various neighborhood information systems which were suggested by Lee and Shin (2008). For comparison of the estimators, MSE, Coverage, Calibration, Regression methods are used. The number of unemployment in Economic Active Population Survey(2001) is used for the comparison.

This article contains three objectives. First it is to revise unnecessary procedures of a transportation models and transform results of a model into an image. Second objectives is to develop an operational structures which automatically input all data needed from arc-node topology to link-node topology of transportation network. By solving the network discrepancy, time and money for constructing to transportation can be saved. In addition, the rate of errors that my caused during data input process can be reduced. Conclusively, it is found that the integration package may provide user friendliness and reduce the rate of errors. The package can extract informations such as distance between zones and nodes, lane numbers, and hierarchy from arc-node topology for executing SDI. Another advantage of integration is the ability of spatial analysis. The integrated package may provide adequate arrangements of traffic facilities and checking systems of the shortest path. Finally, the database function of GIS package provides various information about study area for transportation analysis.

Extreme rainfall will become intense due to climate change, increasing inundation risk to agricultural land. Hydrological and hydraulic simulations for the entire watershed were conducted to analyze the impact of climate change. Rainfall data was collected based on past weather observation and SSP (Shared Socio-economic Pathway)5-8.5 climate change scenarios. Simulation for flood volume, reservoir operation, river level, and inundation of agricultural land was conducted through K-HAS (KRC Hydraulics & Hydrology Analysis System) and HEC-RAS (Hydrologic Engineering Center - River Analysis System). Various scenarios were selected, encompassing different periods of rainfall data, including the observed period (1973-2022), near-term future (2021-2050), mid-term future (2051-2080), and long-term future (2081-2100), in addition to probabilistic precipitation events with return periods of 20 years and 100 years. The inundation area of the Aho-Buin district was visualized through GIS (Geographic Information System) based on the results of the flooding analysis. The probabilistic precipitation of climate change scenarios was calculated higher than that of past observations, which affected the increase in reservoir inflow, river level, inundation time, and inundation area. The inundation area and inundation time were higher in the 100-year frequency. Inundation risk was high in the order of long-term future, near-term future, mid-term future, and observed period. It was also shown that the Aho and Buin districts were vulnerable to inundation. These results are expected to be used as fundamental data for assessing the risk of flooding for agricultural land and downstream watersheds under climate change, guiding drainage improvement projects, and making flood risk maps.

Digitalized topographic information is necessary for many areas such as landscape analysis, civil engineering planning and design, and geographic information systems. It can also be used in flight simulator and automatic navigation of unmanned plane if it is stored in computer in relevant format. Topographic information is coded with various symbols including contour lines, and is analyzed by trained personnels. The information should be stored in computer for automatic analysis, but it requires a lot of time and manpower to enter the contours using manual input devices such as digitizing tablet. This paper deals with automatic extraction and reconstruction of 3D topographic information from 2D terrain map. Several algorithms were developed in this work including contour segment finding algorithm and contour segment linking algorithm. The algorithm were tested using real 2D terrain map.

This study was conducted to analyze whether environmental information could be used for environmental inspection. In addition, environmental information was collected and then an environmental information system applicable to inspection was (developed) using the on-site inspection of pollutant emission facilities and interviews with inspection experts based on the collected information. Moreover, the availability of the information was evaluated based on the (dual-purpose) environmental information system. The information was accumulated in the environmental information system and controlled according to its purpose. The environmental information needed for inspection was divided into four categories: information on emissions, information on emission companies, information on inspection records, and geographic information. The environmental information for each system was evaluated based on these four categories. For most of the systems, it was not possible to find the necessary inspection records. Based on the results, a method was proposed to connect and integrate the perspective of applied and environmental information from previous environmental information systems.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to define the underserved emergency medical services (EMS) areas in Daejeon metropolitan city, as well as to identify their distinctive characteristics in public health perspectives. Methods: An underserved EMS area was operationally defined as an area in which it is difficult to arrive at an emergency medical center within 30 minutes. Using a cost-weighted distance algorithm with a geographic information system (GIS), the underserved EMS area was calculated. The characteristics of the underserved areas were analyzed by the Chi-square test. The SPSS statistical software package was used to perform the statistical analysis. All statistical tests were two-sided, and a p-value<0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: Twelve administrative sectors ('Dong' in Korean) were included in the underserved areas, accounting for a population of approximately 8,100 citizens. The relationships between underserved EMS area and populations of agriculture, fishery, and forestry; citizens who are recipients of national basic livelihood security program; disabled; or aged 65 or older were statistically significant. Conclusion: It was found that 12 administrative sectors were included in the underserved EMS areas. Revealing underserved EMS areas using GIS analysis based on a cost-weighted distance algorithm of road data was an effective analytic method. However, as this study was confined to Daejeon City, South Korea, a nation-wide study should be performed to provide a more accurate conclusion.

By Using MOS-1 satellite image(taken on 24 April 1990, after slash and burn), Shifting cultivation areas were estimated for the sub-basin area. In tropical region to analyse the correlation between shifting cultivation rate and bifurcation rate network which was calculated from topographic map, PC Arc - Info and IDRISI GIS software were used. As the distribution rate of shifting cultivation increases, the bifurcation rate is high. From the correlation analysis between the shifting cultivation and drainage network, it was found that shifting cultivation leads to land degradation and head erosion at the stream valley. To prevent such problems, it is mecessary that shifting cultivation areas should be converted to permanent paddy fields.

This study proposed a forest landscape (patch) fragmentation monitoring framework using a cadastral forest land dataset and validated the feasibility of such monitoring. The following results were found. First, the forest landscape has fragmented too quickly. Hence, immediate national monitoring and management are required. Second, forest landscape monitoring should be linked to other survey frameworks. Horizontal fragmentation monitoring based on the forest landscape (geographic information system [GIS] polygons) is insufficient to determine ecological processes. Third, precautionary principle regulation to link forest landscape fragmentation monitoring to assessment systems such as environmental impact analysis or disaster impact analysis should follow.

In this study, we investigated the applicable plan of GIS on the environmental impact assessment of 60 Hz Powerline. So we assessed distance data based on calculations by use of 2D and 3D Geographical information systems(GIS) and distance data based on measurements on 1: 5000 maps accord with on site distance measurements to use input data for calculating magnetic field. One hundred eight of the on site measured addresses were selected from residences. The data were achieved by measuring the distance between residence and power line on maps with scales of 1: 5000. The digital map was obtained from National Geographic Information Institute with scales of 1: 5000, and we made 2D and 3D map. Correlation analyses were performed for statistical analyses. For the 3D GIS versus on site comparison of different exposure categories, 70 of 108 measurements were assigned to the correct category. Similarly for 2D GIS versus on site comparison, 71 of 108 were correctly categorized. When comparing map measurement with on site measurement, 62 of 108 were correctly categorized. When the correlation analysis was performed, best correlation was found between 3D GIS and on site measurements with r = 0.84947 (p<0.0001). The correlation between map and on site measurement yielded an r of 0.76517 (p<0.0001). Since the GIS measurements and map measurement were made from the center point in the building and the on site measurements had to be made from the closest wall on the building, this might introduce and additional error in urban areas. The difference between 2D and 3D calculations were resulted from the height of buildings.
