Abstract

Geological heritages can be defined conveniently as geological records worthy of conservation, and are represented in most cases by geological outcrops. So survey and evaluation of geologic outcrops are necessary for better conservation of geological heritages. As a measure to prevent potential destruction of geological heritages from various development projects, I propose construction of database based on survey and evaluation forms of geological outcrop, which can also be used for environmental impact assessment. The geological survey form consists of survey area, category, subcategory, location, dimension, geologic features, photo, description, and investigator. The evaluation form consists of evaluation category, detailed evaluation, comprehensive evaluation, and evaluation grade. The evaluation category is divided into academic aspect, education effect and landscape. The detailed evaluation items for academic aspects and education effect are representativeness, rarity, diversity and typicality, while those for geomorphology and landscape are peculiarity, aesthetics and naturalness. The evaluation grades are divided into five, where the first grade means a must of conservation.

지질유산은 보전가치를 가지는 지질기록들을 총칭하며 지질유산의 보전을 위해서는 지질노두에 대한 조사와 평가가 수행되어야 한다. 각종 개발사업으로부터 지질유산이 훼손되는 것을 방지하기 위한 방안의 하나로서 지질노두에 대해 조사표와 평가표를 작성하여 데이터베이스를 구축함으로써 환경영향평가에 활용하도록 하는 방안을 제안한다. 지질노두 조사표의 내용은 조사지역, 분야, 세부분야, 위치, 규모, 특징, 사진 및 설명, 조사자로 구성되어 있다. 지질노두 평가표는 평가유형, 세부평가, 종합평가, 최종평가등급으로 구성된다. 평가유형은 학술, 교육, 경관으로 구분된다. 학술교육 분야는 대표성, 희소성, 다양성, 전형성을 세부항목으로 평가한다. 지형경관 분야는 특이성, 심미성, 자연성을 세부항목으로 평가한다. 최종평가등급은 5개 등급으로 구분되며 1등급은 보전가치가 가장 높은 등급으로 절대보전을 요한다.
