Taking the East-Hwasung area as the case, this study first builds gridded population data based on the municipal population survey raw data, and then measures, by way of GIS tools, the major urban spatial variables that are thought to influence the composition of the regional population. For the purpose of comparison, the urban models based on the Genetic Algorithm technique and the regression technique are constructed using the same input variables. The findings indicate that the GA output performed better in differentiating the effective variables among the pilot model variables, and predicted as much consistent and meaningful coefficient estimates for the explanatory variables as the regression models. The study results indicate that GA technique could be a very useful and supplementary research tool in understanding the urban phenomena.

The complex interactions of climate, topography, geology, biota and hwnan activities result in the land cover patterns, which are impacted by natural disturbances such as fire, earthquake and flood. Natural disturbances disrupt ecosystem communities and change the physical environment, thereby generating a new landscape. Community ecologists believe that disturbance is critical in determining how diverse ecological systems function. Fires were once a major agent of disturbance in the North American tall grass prairies, African savannas, and Australian bush. The major focus of this research was to develop stochastic model of spatial process of disturbance or spatial events and simulate the process based on the developed model and it was applied to the fire arrival process in the Great Victoria Desert of Australia, where wildfires generate a mosaic of patches of habitat at various stages of post-fire succession. For this research, Landsat Multi-Spectral Scanner(MSS) data covering the period from 1972 to 1994 were utilized. Fire arrival process is characterized as a spatial point pattern irregularly distributed within a region of space. Here, nonhomogeneous planar Poisson process is proposed as a model for the fire arrival process and rejection sampling thinning the homogeneous Poisson process is used for its simulation.

This paper analyzes the social cohesion effects of creative industrial as a core role player of emerging new economic paradigm of the creative economy using the case of Seoul Metropolitan Area(SMA) that is a typical cluster of creative industries in Korea. This study reclassified the creative industries in a Korean context into 13 industries in 6 sectors. Based on this reclassification, the study found out that the spatial pattern of creative industries in SMA is spatially much differentiated in terms of specialization, which demands more differentiated cluster strategy with different policy mix. This paper also investigates the social cohesion effects of creative industries using structural equation modelling. It turns out that the growth of creative industries is likely to contribute to the regional development capacity and also to provide positive effects on various aspects of the social cohesion.

제주도에는 170여개의 확인된 동굴이 있으며 그 중에서 천연기념물 동굴이 10개로서 육지의 동굴보다 면적당 천연문화재적 비중이 상대적으로 높은 지역이다. 이러한 특징으로 용암동굴이 세계자연유산으로 등재되는가 하면 세계지질공원으로서 세계적인 랜드 마크로 부각되었다. 그러나 화산분출에 의하여 형성된 용암동굴은 대부분이 지표 가까운 부분에 손등위의 혈맥과 같은 형상으로 한라산을 중심으로 방사형 분포로 형성되어 있어, 장구한 기간 동안 거센 풍화와 지면 응고성 암석의 특성으로 인한 기포와 균열로 수많은 함몰과 붕괴에 직면하고 있다. 이러한 현상을 분석하고 구현하기 위하여 공간정보시스템을 활용하는 방안을 제시한다. 적용결과 땅꺼짐 현상 관련 분석 및 해결방안은 공간정보시스템의 공간정보의 분석기법과 uIT기법에 지질공학적 기법의 융합적 접근이 효과적임을 확인하였다.

ADCP(Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler)는 유수의 흐름을 방해하지 않으면서 물 속으로 일정 주파수의 초음파를 전송하고, 부유하는 입자들에 의해 산란되어 돌아오는 반향을 수집, 도플러효과를 이용하여 유속을 측정하는 장비이다. ADCP는 하천을 횡단하면서 순간적인 유속을 측정하므로 시간평균한 평균유속과의 차이가 발생하지만 1초에 1회 이상의 빠른 속도로 연직유속분포를 수집하면서 이를 공간적으로 평균함으로써 순간유속이 갖는 변동성을 완화시키는 특징을 갖는다. 본 연구에서는 ADCP를 활용하여 사행하천에서 수평방향 2차원 유속분포를 측정하고자 하였다. 만곡부가 교호적으로 나타나는 사행하천의 흐름구조는 매우 복잡하다. 특히 주 흐름의 수직인 단면에 나선형의 2차류가 관찰되는데, 이는 원심력과 횡방향의 수면경사 및 난류의 상호작용으로 발생된다. 주 흐름의 유속과 다른 분포를 나타낸다. 본 연구에서는 이찬주 등(2005)이 제시한 공간평균기법과 이동경로 수정을 통하여 측선별 2차원 유속분포를 측정하여 기 개발된 RAMS(서울대학교, 2007)를 적용하고 이를 검증하기 위한 자료를 확보하고자 하였다.

This paper presents a content-based image retrieval (CBIR) method using the combination of color and texture features. As a color feature, a color autocorrelogram is chosen which is extracted from the hue and saturation components of a color image. As a texture feature, BDIP(block difference of inverse probabilities) and BVLC(block variation of local correlation coefficients) are chosen which are extracted from the value component. When the features are extracted, the color autocorrelogram and the BVLC are simplified in consideration of their calculation complexity. After the feature extraction, vector components of these features are efficiently quantized in consideration of their storage space. Experiments for Corel and VisTex DBs show that the proposed retrieval method yields 9.5% maximum precision gain over the method using only the color autucorrelogram and 4.0% over the BDIP-BVLC. Also, the proposed method yields 12.6%, 14.6%, and 27.9% maximum precision gains over the methods using wavelet moments, CSD, and color histogram, respectively.

Forest fire occurrence in Korea is highly related to human activities and its spatial distribution shows a strong spatial dependency with cluster pattern. In this study, we analyzed spatial distribution pattern of forest fire with point pattern analysis considering spatial dependency. Distributional pattern was derived from Ripley's K-function according to causes and distances. Spatially clustered intensity was found out using Kernel intensity estimation. As a result, forest fires in Korea show clustered pattern, although the degrees of clustering for each cause are different. Furthermore, spatial clustering pattern can be classified into two groups in terms of degrees of clustering and distance. The first group shows the national-wide cluster pattern related to the human activity near forests, such as human-induced accidental fire in mountain and field incineration. Another group shows localized cluster pattern which is clustered within a short distance. It is associated with the smoker fire, arson, accidental by children. The range of localized clustering was 30 km. Beyond of this range, the patterns of forest fire became random distribution gradually. Kernel intensity analysis showed that the latter group, which have localized cluster pattern, was occurred in near Seoul with high densed population.

Distribution of pine needle gall midge infestations was analyzed from data collected in young Japanese red pine stands during 1992, and 1995-1996 in Kangwon-do. No significant differences in percentages of infested needle pairs were found among trees and between terminal and lateral shoots within a tree. However, the mean percentages of infested needle pairs increased significantly from the lower crown to the upper. Percentages of infested needle pairs on sample units, consisting 1 terminal and 2 lateral shoots, in the midcrown were best predictors of whole-tree percentages than were other crown levels. Therefore, a sample unit consisting of 1 terminal shoot and 2 lateral shoots per branch were fixed from the midcrown level. Number of tree and sample unit combinations needed to estimate pine needle gall midge infestations with given two levels of precision were determined.

Soil moisture is critical for understanding the spatial-temporal variability of hydrologic processes. The distributions of soil moisture have been explored along transect line in hillslope hydrology. In this study, we measured several soil moistures along transect lines during ten-month period at a hillslope located the Cheong-mi catchment. The soil moisture properties were expressed by simple statistical methods (average, standard deviation, and recession slope) and analyzed in terms of soil depths and transects from the seasonal context. Supplementary studies were also performed about the effect of location, topography and soil texture to the soil moisture responses. The spatial distributions of average soil moisture at deep soil layer were distinguished from those at near surface due to the possibility of expected factors such as subsurface lateral flow from upslope, preferential flow and existence of bedrock. The soil moistures in combined line affected from significant contribution of upper transect line were relatively higher(wetter), low variability compared to those in other transect lines and seemed to be under stabilization process. There are confirmed heterogeneity of soil moisture variation related with preferential flow and significant influence of soil texture for soil moisture properties in upslope.
