Recently new periodic markets formed in large apartment areas where consumers live. Before, in the case of peasant periodic markets travelling merchants, consumers and producers met in specific places on decided dates. Closing time of apartment's new periodic markets is later than that of peasant periodic markets, and the number of travelling merchants is fewer than that of peasant periodic markets. The average number of apartment and household for a new periodic market is about ten and 920 respectively, and if neighboring apartment household are included, the number is larger. Apartment's new periodic markets in Cheongju city is included in Daejeon market area. The types of regional trip of travelling merchants can be divided into one round trip of two or three neighboring dongs and larger sphere of more than 4 dongs. The larger sphere round trip consists of one type combining the southeastern, southern and southwestern regions, and the other type combining southeastern and southwestern regions. About 85 percent of travelling merchants visit the periodic market 5 days in a week; about 12 percent of travelling merchants choose to visit on Saturday; only 2 percent of travelling merchants visit 4 days in a week.

위치기반서비스(Location Based Service)는 갈수록 고도화 되어 가고 있다. 특히 최근의 대형 포털을 중심으로 지오웹 서비스가 활성화 되어 있고 이를 스마트폰과 같은 개인용 이용기기를 통해 연속적으로 제공하려는 경향이 뚜렷하다. 이와 같은 시점에서 정부와 민간에서 구축 중이거나 보유 중인 전국적 규모의 데이터 간 상호 연동과 융합을 도모하려는 시도 또한 불가결하다. 이는 고도화된 LBS를 위하여 반드시 필요한 과정이기 때문이다. 이에 따라 몇 가지 주요한 전국 데이터를 대상으로 상호 연동과 융합을 위한 기술개발을 시도하였다. 우선 도로명주소기본도와 수치지형도 간 POI의 연계를 위한 연구를 수행하고 있다. 이 연구에서는 두도면 내의 POI를 대상으로 다양한 매칭과 이에 기반 한 의사결정 방법론을 이용하여 자동으로 상호 인식 및 연계가 될 수 있도록 하고 있다. 다음으로 지적도와 수치지형도 간의 객체 매칭에 관한 연구이다. 수치지형도와 지적도의 불부합으로 인하여 그 동안 지적도를 수치지형도에 맞춘 형태의 편집지적도를 지속적으로 생산하여 왔고 앞으로도 그럴 것이다. 문제는 여기에 필요한 많은 예산이다. 만일 수치지형도와 지적도를 자동으로 매칭하여 편집지적도를 자동으로 생산할 수 있게 된다면 많은 예산 절감과 함께 편집지적도의 현시성을 확보할 수 있게 될 것이다. 다음으로 항공사진과 도로망도의 매칭이다. 현재 주요 포털에서 제공하고 있는 항공사진 기반의 도로망도는 기복변위와 같은 문제로 인하여 시각적으로 많은 위치오차를 보이고 있다. 만일 항공사진의 도로영역을 자동으로 추출하여 벡터 도로망도와 매칭을 할 수 있다면 보다 시각적으로 안정된 항공사진 상의 도로망도를 제공할 수 있게 되고 나아가 이는 차량이나 보행자 네비게이션에 매우 요긴하게 이용될 수 있을 것이다. 다음으로 서로 LOD가 다른 도로망도의 매칭 문제이다. 많은 기관에서 독자적으로 생산한 도로망도는 LOD의 상이에 기인한 문제가 많아 서로 연계 활용되지 않는다. 이를 자동으로 매칭하여 서로 연계할 수 있다면 두 도로망도가 보유하고 있는 속성정보를 공동으로 이용할 수 있는 이익을 얻게 된다. 다음으로 지도 일반화 기술이다. 지도일반화는 지적도내 수치지형도와 같은 대규모 데이터를 스마트폰과 같은 저용량 사양의 기기에 서비스 할 때 불가결한 기술이다. 지도상 객체들의 기하학적 정보 손실을 최소화하면서 메모리 측면에서 경량의 지도를 자동으로 만들어 낸다면 이는 매우 요긴하게 이용될 것이다. 마지막으로 보행자 네트워크의 생성기술이다. 보행자 네트워크는 그 상세함과 정보용량에 있어서 차량용 네트워크에 견줄 수 없다. 이를 현행의 차량용 네트워크와 같이 수동으로 생성하는 데에는 경제적으로나 시간적으로 막대한 투자가 필요하다. 따라서 이를 기존의 공간정보들을 활용하여 자동으로 생성해 낼 수 있다면 그 파급효과는 매우 크리라 판단된다. 본 발표에서는 위와 같은 주제에 관하여 그간의 연구 성과를 개략적으로 소개해본다.

For an atomatic generation of DEM(Digital Elevation Model) by computer, it is a time-consumed work to determine adquate matches from stereo images. Correlation and evenly distributed area-based method is generally used for matching operation. In this paper, we propose a new approach that computes matches efficiantly by changing the size of mask window and search area according to the given terrain information. For image segmentation, at first edge-preserving smoothing filter is used for preprocessing, and then region growing algorithm is applied for the filterd images. The segmented regions are classifed into mountain, plain and water area by using MRF(Markov Random Filed) model. Maching is composed of predicting parallex and fine matching. Predicted parallex determines the location of search area in fine matching stage. The size of search area and mask window is determined by terrain information for each pixel. The execution time of matching is reduced by lessening the size of search area in the case of plain and water. For the experiments, four images which are covered $10km{\times}10km(1024{\times}1024\;pixel)$ of Taejeon-Kumsan in each are studied. The result of this study shows that the computing time of the proposed method using terrain information for matching operation can be reduced from 25% to 35%.

An array type probe for monitoring metal tubes is proposed in this paper which utilizes peak value and peak time of a pulsed eddy current(PEC) signal. The probe consists of an array of encircling coils along a tube and the outside of coils is shielded by ferrite to prevent source magnetic fields from directly affecting sensor signals since it is the magnetic fields produced by eddy currents that reflect the condition of metal tubes. The positions of both exciter and sensor coils are consecutively moved automatically so that manual scanning is not necessary. At one position of send-receive coils, peak value and peak time are extracted from a sensor PEC signal and these data are accumulated for all positions to form an array type peak value signal and an array type peak time signal. Numerical simulation was performed using the backward difference method in time and the finite element method for spatial analysis. Simulation results showed that peak value increases and the peak appears earlier as the defect depth or length increases. The proposed array signals are shown to be excellent in reflecting the defect location as well as variations of defect depth and length within the array probe.

Geographic Information System The geographic information system (GIS) has been limited to the government and some public sectors. Recently, the market has been diversified by combining with other areas such as mobile and CRM (Customer Relationship Management). The development direction of GIS technology in the 21st century is Web GIS, 3D GIS, mobile GIS, LBS, etc. as general technology for GIS application system development and spatial information service. In this study, we developed a new concept marking nail (a marking nail with built - in intelligent storage memory device) from the function of simple positioning of a marking nail related to a previously used underground item,, Burial depth, pipe thickness, piping material, management agency, contractor, contact, etc.) and store it in DB server, if necessary.Make it available in the right place. Through this research, it is possible to prevent and minimize various accidents caused by irregular excavation works, etc., and to provide information for establishing countermeasures related to sink holes. In order to provide systematic and reliable information on underground burial management, it was proposed to input information conveniently in the field, and the purpose was to reduce the incidence of buried underground pipes absolutely.

Visually impaired people use tactile maps to get spatial information about their surrounding environment, find their way, and improve their independent mobility. However, classical tactile maps that make use of braille to describe the location within the map have several limitations, such as the lack of information due to constraints on space and limited feedback possibilities. This study describes the development of a new multi-modal interactive tactile map interface that addresses the challenges of tactile maps to improve the usability and independence of visually impaired people when using tactile maps. This interface adds touch gesture recognition to the surface of tactile maps and enables the users to verbally interact with a voice agent to receive feedback and information about navigation routes and points of interest. A low-cost prototype was developed to conduct usability tests that evaluated the interface through a survey and interview given to blind participants after using the prototype. The test results show that this interactive tactile map prototype provides improved usability for people over traditional tactile maps that use braille only. Participants reported that it was easier to find the starting point and points of interest they wished to navigate to with the prototype. Also, it improved self-reported independence and confidence compared with traditional tactile maps. Future work includes further development of the mobility solution based on the feedback received and an extensive quantitative study.

BIS is an arrival guidance system which is able to supply passengers with bus service condition via Kiosks at a bus stop, internet and mobile service through pinpointing bus location in real time. It is very significant to improve the quality of traffic information by quality control of GIS-based bus network so as to maintain navigational information and to implement reliable BIS. Therefore this study aims to build criteria to quantitatively evaluate data quality of the product in accordance with the process in bus network data and to suggest guideline of quality control. To achieve this, we have categorized geometric and logical errors occurring during constructing bus network database by giving a specific case study on TAGO and set up sectional guideline and procedures to examine database for systematic and coherent quality control management. Proceeding from what has been said above, the outcome of our research leads to quality guarantee for objective and reliable bus network database and is fully expected to bring benefit of providing a more accurate public transportation information and improving reliability of BIS through preventing a variety of errors in system operation in advance.

The scale of a natural disaster grows bigger and bigger every year. The government spends much of its budget on recovering the resulting damage on a national scale. It is important to shift the paradigm from taking measures after a disaster to that of taking preventive actions before a disaster in order to bring a fundamental resolution to such problems. In taking preventive actions and policies, it is necessary to integrate various kinds of advanced technologies including IT, high-tech information gathering technology and operational technology, and to predict and evaluate natural disasters on a comprehensive level. Although Korea is a country with a strong IT sector, most information gathering is still performed in paper. In particular, information about the areas of previous landslide occurrences and slopes remains on paper, which makes it difficult to share the information and to discern the contents, and also raises the possibility of missing documents. Thus this study set out to develop an information gathering and management system for cutting slopes using PDA from the perspective of information gathering, system compatibility, and information management. As a result, field information may be gathered in a variety of forms (location, photos, and texts) real-time. A rough judgment was also made of the stability of rock slopes using the SMR method on the field.

This study analyzed the vulnerable areas to the fire service in regard to 119 safety centers, currently established in Jinju city. In this study, the district of fire was examined through the analysis of the OD cost matrix to find the transference or increase methods of the existing centers for improving the fire services. The study results demonstrate that the numbers of 119 safety centers were lacking in comparison with the areas of the administrative district in Jinju. In particular, relocation and the transference or increase of centers were required for the Cheonjeon 119 safety centers, which is the creation area of the National Industrial Complex among five 119 safety centers located in Jinju, and the fire service jurisdiction of Munsan 119 safety centers (including Banseong 119 regional unit), which is the location of a big fire risk due to the increase of population according to the development of the new town. In addition, the OD cost matrix analysis in this study reveals the fact that the time of fire service in the Jeonchon Industrial Complex, which is the significantly vulnerable area, will be reduced from 8 minutes to 3.3 minutes if the current Cheonjeon 119 safety center is moved to Gaho-dong. It indicates that the increase of safety centers in Geumsan-myeon areas, where the population has increased rapidly in recent days due to the development of the new town, is keenly needed.
