Due to the complexity of the causes of the sliding mass instabilities, landslide susceptibility and hazard evaluation are difficult, but they can be more carefully considered and regionally evaluated by using new programming technologies to minimize the hazard. This study aims to evaluate the landslide hazard zonation in the Tabriz region, Iran. A fuzzy logic-based multi-criteria decision-making method was proposed for susceptibility analysis and preparing the hazard zonation maps implemented in MATLAB programming language and Geographic Information System (GIS) environment. In this study, five main factors have been identified as triggering including climate (i.e., precipitation, temperature), geomorphology (i.e., slope gradient, slope aspect, land cover), tectonic and seismic parameters (i.e., tectonic lineament congestion, distribution of earthquakes, the unsafe radius of main faults, seismicity), geological and hydrological conditions (i.e., drainage patterns, hydraulic gradient, groundwater table depth, weathered geo-materials), and human activities (i.e., distance to roads, distance to the municipal areas) in the study area. The results of analyses are presented as a landslide hazard map which is classified into 5 different sensitive categories (i.e., insignificant to very high potential). Then, landslide susceptibility maps were prepared for the Tabriz region, which is categorized in a high-sensitive area located in the northern parts of the area. Based on these maps, the Bozgoosh-Sahand mountainous belt, Misho-Miro Mountains and western highlands of Jolfa have been delineated as risk-able zones.

Over the last three decades, Performance-based Earthquake Engineering (PBEE) has been mainly developed for high seismicity regions. Although information is abundant for PBEE throughout the world, the application of PBEE to lower-seismicity regions, such as those where the magnitude of the maximum considered earthquake (MCE) is less than 6.5, is not always straightforward because some portions of PBEE may not be appropriate for such regions due to geological differences between high- and low-seismicity regions. This paper presents a brief review of state-of-art PBEE methodologies and introduces the seismic hazard of lower-seismicity regions, including those of the Korean Peninsula, with their unique characteristics. With this seismic hazard, representative low-rise RC MRF structures and high-rise RC wall residential structures are evaluated using PBEE. Also, the range of the forces and deformations of the representative building structures under the design earthquake (DE) and the MCE of South Korea are presented. These reviews are used to propose some ideas to improve the practice of state-of-art PBEE in lower-seismicity regions.

Engineering projects often run into "difficult" ground donditions which cause delays, failures, hugely increased costs or even abandonment with consequent disputes and claims. Pertinent questions are "what constitute difficult conditions\ulcorner" and "how might they be foreseen\ulcorner" and these questions provide the focus for this paper. Geological, geotechnical and hydrogeological models for engineering projects(simplified representations of the ground) need to be developed in a systematic manner. Within these models, the potential hazards associated with material (small) and mass (large) scale attributes of the geology, the environmental setting and the influence of the engineering works themselves need to be considered individually and in a progressive, systematic manner. This paper introduces the concept of a Geotechnical Hazard Review with reference to examples from various engineering works.

For the planning of future land use for economic activities, an essential component is the identification of the vulnerable areas for natural hazard and environmental impacts from the activities. Also, exploration for mineral and energy resources is carried out by a step by step approach. At each step, a selection of the target area for the next exploration strategy is made based on all the data harnessed from the previous steps. The uncertainty of the selected target area containing undiscovered resources is a critical factor for estimating the exploration risk. We have developed not only spatial prediction models based on adapted artificial intelligence techniques to predict target and vulnerable areas but also validation techniques to estimate the uncertainties associated with the predictions. The prediction models will assist the scientists and decision-makers to make two critical decisions: (i) of the selections of the target or vulnerable areas, and (ii) of estimating the risks associated with the selections.

This paper presents a methodology to account for the partial or gradual changes of environmental phenomena in categorical map information for the fusion/integration of multiple spatial data. The fuzzy set based spatial data fusion scheme is applied in order to account for the fuzziness of boundaries in categorical information showing the partial or gradual environmental impacts. The fuzziness or uncertainty of boundary is represented as two kinds of fuzzy membership functions based on fuzzy object concept and the effects of them are quantitatively evaluated with the help of a cross validation procedure. A case study for landslide hazard assessment demonstrates the better performance of this scheme as compared to traditional crisp boundary representation.

This paper presents the disaster control due to flooding through the case study of Samwhadong, Donghae city, Kangwondo, broken out at 31, August 2002. In order to assess the characteristics of flood damage one must consider social and geological conditions, the factors of flood risk were derived based on GIS. For reduction of flood damage, flood hazard map was prepared for local residents. These information will support refuge activities, it would aid the reduction of flood damage.

People grow up and build up most of their character through living in dwelling space and have relax and refresh at home. Creating healthy dwelling space is being considered very important in architectural planning and design for providing comfortable living environment and improving quality of life. One of the properties of the earth is that the earth has a magnetic field associated with it- the Geomagnetic field. The geomagnetic field is produced by a combination of crustal rocks, external electric current systems that surround the earth that surround the earth and currents induced in the outer layers of the earth by magnetic field variations. Human beings have evolved with the background of magnetic field, they are accustomed to living in its presence. Geopathic stress occurs at geopathic zones where the geomagnetic field is disturbed. Geopathic zones exhibit magnetic charges. Geopathic zones are characterized by variations in geomagnetism, for the geomagnetic field is not uniform but exhibits many highly localized distortions, some random, some fairly regular. These occur in geological faults, caves and underground water channel. Many research papers and experiments of the western countries indicates that the geomagnetic field affects the people and living organism in dwellings. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate the geomagnetic field and people's response in living space. In this study the Health Hazard of geomagneic field in dwelling are studied through literature survey of related science field.

우리나라 전역을 대상으로 공간 분석 기반 지진 위험 지도를 작성하고 지진 취약 지역을 평가하였다. 지진 피해에 영향을 미치는 지질학적 특성을 고려하여 지표를 선정하였으며, 지진 활동 위험과 관련된 확률론적 지진 위험도 및 단층 특성, 지진 피해 위험과 연관된 기반암 심도 정보가 이용되었다. 각 지표는 정규 크리깅, 선 밀도 및 가변적 지역 평균 기반 단순 크리깅과 같은 GIS 및 지구 통계학 기법을 활용하여 공간 정보로 구축되었다. 구축된 세 가지 공간 정보는 연구 목적, 자료의 해상도 및 정확도에 따라 가중치를 할당하여 통합되었다. 지진 활동 위험 지표인 확률론적 지진 위험도와 단층 선 밀도의 경우 데이터의 불확실성이 비교적 크기 때문에 경향성 만을 반영하고자 먼저 가중 합한 후, 지진 피해 위험 지표인 기반암 심도 분포와 통합되었다. 이를 통해 세 가지 공간 자료의 분석에 기반한 지진 위험 지도가 작성되었으며, 우리나라 남동부와 북서부 지역이 지진 위험도가 높은 것으로 평가되었다. 본 연구 결과는 지진 재해를 최소화하기 위한 지진 대응 시스템을 구축하는데 기초 자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

본 연구의 목적은 예비조사 방법으로서 점검표를 이용하여 토질사면에 대한 산사태 취약도를 평가하고, 산사태 재해위험지도를 만드는 것이다. 국립재난안전연구원이 제안한 표들이 사면 안정성 평가에 적용되었으며, 이 표들은 토질사면에 대한 안정성 점검표로 구성되어 있다. 흙의 공학적 특성을 포함한 자료들은 부산 중심부의 황령산 지역에 대한 현지조사와 기존 연구를 통하여 획득되었다. 주제도를 만드는데 관련된 모든 자료는 ArcGIS 10.0을 이용하여 변환되었다. 이 방법을 사용한 결과 연구지역의 토질사면은 매우 안정-안정 영역에 분포되었으며, 중간 정도의 안정성 영역은 산의 말단부를 따라 부분적으로 분포한다. 산사태 위험도 지도의 결과는 산사태에 의한 피해를 방지하고, 적절한 토지이용계획을 수립하는 데 이용될 수 있을 것이다.

본 연구에서는 산림청에서 산사태 위험지를 판정하는데 이용하고 있는 판정표를 기반으로 산사태 발생 위험도를 예측할 수 있는 GIS 응용모델을 개발하였다. 이 모델에서 산사태 위험지는 지형, 임상 및 지질과 같은 산림입지환경 인자들 중 7개 인자를 선별적으로 이용하여 분석하도록 설계되었다. 이러한 입지환경 인자들 중 경사길이, 경사위치, 사변형태의 분석은 DEM 자료를 이용하여 산지사면 분석이 가능하도록 개발된 '산사태 예측을 위한 산지사면 입지해석 모듈' 을 이용하였다. 산사태 위험지 판정 모델의 구조는 원자료를 입력받아 가공, 변환하는 입력모듈과, 산사태 위험지 판정인자를 분석하여 해당지역의 산사태 위험지를 분석하는 모듈, 분석된 산사태 위험도 판정 결과를 제시하는 출력모듈 등으로 구성되어 있다. 경기도 용인 안성 지역에서 발생한 산사태를 대상으로 모델을 적용한 결과 약 72%에 해당하는 산사태가 산사태 위험도 2등급 이상으로 판정된 곳에서 발생하였다.
