The purpose of this paper was to propose a Topographic Position Index(TPI) method for predicting forest wetlands, and also to test the suitability of the predicted forest wetlands by comparing with the existing wetlands in Ulaju-gun and Gyengsangnam-do. A prediction of the spatial distribution of forest wetlands was accomplished by TPI grids from Digital Elevation Model(DEM), and the classification results of slope position and landform categories in study area using the TPI values. According to the results of predicting forest wetlands distribution by TPI method, the predicted area in case of less than $5^{\circ}$ flat slope criteria occupied 0.1%($1.38km^2$) of the total area, and 3.5%($37.1km^2$) of total area in below $10^{\circ}$ slope criteria. According to the results of the suitability analysis by comparing the predicted area with the existing forest wetlands, the suitability value (0.066) of the predicted area with less than $10^{\circ}$ flat slope criteria was the highest, but the predicted area in case of less than $20^{\circ}$ had the lowest value(0.019).

This study presents the methodology to link with aerial photos for advancing the accuracy of topographic survey data that is used to calculate water volume in urban stream. First, GIS spatial interpolation technique as Inverse Distance Weight (IDW) and Kriging was applied to construct the terrain morphology to the sand-bar and grass area using cross-sectional survey data, and also validation point data was used to estimate the accuracy of created topographic data. As the result of comparison, IDW ($d^{-2}_{ij}$, 2nd square number) in Sand-bar area and Kriging Spherical model in grass area showed more efficient results in the construction of topographic data of river boundary. But the differences among interpolation methods are very slight. Image classification method, Minimum Distance Method (MDM) was applied to extract sand-bar and grass area that are located to river boundary efficiently and the elevation value of extracted layers was allocated to the water level point value. Water volume with topographic data from aerial photos shows the advanced accuracy of 13% (in sand-bar) and 12% (in grass) compared to the water volume of original terrain data. Therefore, terrain analysis method in river linking with aerial photos is efficient to the monitoring about sand-bar and grass area that are located in the downstream of Dam in flooding season, and also it can be applied to calculate water volume efficiently.

The major purpose of the present study is to gauge the general applicability of cadastral surveying and LiDAR surveying. LiDAR survey is the method which obtains Geospatial information of the terrain. We will get a most topographic models at Digital Elevation Model(DEM) using LiDAR survey data. Also, we will consider both the surface parcel partition and volume parcel as a part of Geospatial relationship model. This study will focus on enhancing the efficiency and analysis of continual cadastral map and LiDAR DEM. I would like to close by proposing that LiDAR surveying will contribute in cadastral surveying.

Phenological development, flowering and leafin times of Rhododendron muronulatum and R. schlippenbachii along elevagtion were studied at Mt. Kwanak, 629m high above the sea level, in Seoul. Flowering and leafing time of the former were delayed at the rate of 2.3~3.3 days and those of the latter were of 2.0~3.0 days per 100m ascent. Phenological changes of both plant species were closely correlated with minimum air temperature first, and then soil water content and minimum soil temperature among the climatic factors. Phenological difference caused by altitude and slope direction(southeast-northwest) among the topographic factors was admitted at the high significance level, but the difference by ridgevalley was little.

In recent years, LiDAR(Light Detection and Ranging) data has been widely used to prepare digital elevation models(DEMs) with the high spatial resolution of centi-meters. This paper investigated possible applications of LiDAR-derived DEMs in surface hydrology modeling, such as characterizing flow direction, identifying sub-basins in a watershed, and calculating variables like upstream contribution area. The results were compared to the results of the DEMs from conventional topographic maps.

The objective of this study is to analyze the hazard-areas for landslide using GIS and RS. LRA (Logistic Regression Analysis) and AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Program) methods were used for evaluation of the hazard-areas by six topographic factors (slope, aspect, elevation, soil drain, soil depth, land use). These methods were applied to Anseong-si where frequent landslides were occurred mainly by the regional heavy rainfall. A landslide hazard-map of Anseong-si could describe into 7 hazard-grades. As results, LRA method was underestimated in higher grades areas, while AHP method was underestimated in lower grades areas. In order to evaluate the hazard-areas for landslides with accuracy, these results of each method were overlapped and the results of suggested method were compared with the historical landslide hazard records of KFRI (Korea Forest Research Institute).

This study is to suggest a methodology to produce landslide hazard map by combining LRA (Logistic Regression Analysis) and AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Program) Approach. Topographic factors (slope, aspect, elevation), soil drain, soil depth and land use were adopted to classify landslide hazard areas. The method was applied to a 520 $km^2$ region located in the middle of South Korea which have occurred 39 landslides during 1999 and 2003. The suggested method showed 58.9 % matching rate for the real landslide sites comparing with the classified areas of high-risk landslide while LRA and AHP showed 46.1 % and 48.7 % matching rates respectively.

개발계획이나 환경계획 수립시에 절대적인 해발고도를 기준으로 지형적 특성을 분석한다면 절대표고가 낮은 지역은 대부분 개발가능지로 구분된다. 따라서 지역적 특성을 반영하는 상대표고를 적용하여야 하나 산의 경계구획，능선설정 등의 어려움으로 아직 전국단위의 구체적인 연구는 미흡한 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 최근 Weiss 가 제안한 지형위치지수 ( Topogr aph i c Position Index, TPI) 를 적용하여 전국 단위의 상대표고 분석 가능성을 검토하였다. TPI 모델 도출 결과와 기존 환경부 국토환경성 평가에 사용한 Gaia EZeye 모델 결과를 중첩 비교한 결과 정확도가 높은 것으로 나타났다.

As SAR data have the strong point that is not influenced by weather or light amount compared with optical sensor data, they have high usfulness as temporary analysis fast and can be collected in case of like disaster. This study is to extract DEM from L-band data of JERS-1 SAR imagery using InSAR and DInSAR processing techniques. The accuracies of DEM extracted from the SAR data were evaluated by employing DEM derived from the digital topographic maps of 1:5000 scale as standard data.

Digital elevation models(DEM) were generated from SPOT-5 HRG supermode imagery through photogrammetric processing. The reference DEMs were obtained from digital topographic maps of 1/5000 scaleas for analyzing the accuracy of the generated DEMs. The DEMs extracted from HRG stereo image data were compared with digital topograpic map DEMs on several test sections. And digital surface models(DSM) and 3D building model was produced.
