If designed properly, street transit systems can provide many useful functions with the flexibility of serving an unlimited range of locations throughout an urban area. Over the last decades urban regions of Korea cities have seen rapidly changing travel patterns and urban conditions. Under this circumstance transit planners need frequent evaluations of its street transit routes so as to restructure or modify them rationally. It should be noted that the changing network influences passengers, operators, as well as the city itself. However, there is no proper framework with which to evaluate the street transit network comprehensively. This paper develops and provides a framework including criteria and indicators for evaluating street transit networks. Five criteria, such as network size, network structure, service requirements, efficiency of operation and the relationship to the city are presented. A number of indicators and measures representing each criteria are then suggested. As a practical example, an analysis and comparison of three minibus networks in Busan are presented, utilizing the developed measures and indicators. The results of this study will be of great use for planners responsible for transit route planning, particularly for planning of new or analysis of existing routes; their comparison with routes/networks of various cities.

This study presented the route location method by applying AHP and evaluating quantitatively. This study developed the program that can be easily applied to this kind of road design, and built the decision support system for route location. The study results are summarized as follows ; We could quantitatively evaluate the appropriateness of exiting routes by applying the AHP based on GIS. If we apply this to the roads that will be newly constructed, we can make the objective and reliable route location when making road plans and basic designs. We improved the technique of route location by applying the decision support system with third-dimensional data, which considers even the vertical alignment plan, to the existing decision support system with second-dimensional data. And, since we can set those data such as vertical slope, earth-volume, structure size, location and construction cost to independent variables, we can make road designs more scientifically and reasonably.

최근 자동차 수의 급속한 증가와 대중 교통의 발달로 인하여 ITS(Intelligent Transportation System)과 같은 지리/교통 안내 시스템의 연구 개발이 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 이러한 시스템의 중요한 기능 중의 하나로 대중 교통의 관리와 안내 서비스가 있다. 특히 우리나라의 경우 아직 많은 사람들이 대중 교통을 이용하고 있고, 대중 교통이 대도시 교통체증의 중요 해결책으로 인식되므로 이러한 기능이 더욱 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 인터넷을 통하여 접근할 수 있는 버스 노선 안내 서비스 시스템을 개발한 경험을 소개한다. 버스 노선 안내 서비스 시스템은 사용자가 접근하기 용이해야 하며 실용적인 서비스 결과를 제공할 수 있어야 한다. 또한 추후 개발되는 여러 ITS 구성 요소들과 유기적으로 결합할 수 있는 상호 운용성이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 분산 객체 미들웨어의 표준인 CORBA를 이용하여 인터넷을 통한 접근이 용이하고 상호 운용성이 뛰어난 시스템 구조를 제안하였다. 이 시스템의 구조와 스키마는 추후 다른 대중 교통 안내 서비스 시스템과의 연계 혹은 다른 ITS 구성 요소와의 연계에 쉽게 대응할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

본 논문은 지구공간에 존재하는 다양한 공간정보를 이용하여 도로 및 철도 계획과 공사를 위한 최적노선을 선정하는 기법에 관한 새로운 연구이다. 사람과 물자를 수송하는데 있어서 가장 기본적인 공공교통시설인 도로 및 철도를 건설하기 위하여 초기에 가장 중요한 결정이 바로 최적노선결정이므로 환경파괴를 최대한으로 감소시키고 그 기능을 충분히 발휘할 수 있도록 대상 지역의 여러 가지 조건을 고려하여 가장 적합한 노선의 위치를 결정하여야 한다. 3차원 지형 환경의 공간영상콘텐츠는 국토계획 및 통신설비계획, 철도건설, 시공, 입체적인 유비쿼터스 도시 구현, 안전 및 방재 등에서 많은 요구와 그 중요성이 크게 부각되고 있다. 현재 지리정보 기반의 2차원적인 지도정보와 시설정보를 다차원의 도시공간으로 재현하기 위하여 기존의 등고선을 이용한 DEM 방식은 많은 한계를 가지고 있으며, 특히, 철도와 같은 노선 폭이 좁고 길이가 길어서 궤적 관리가 어려운 작은 구조물의 경우에는 그 고도모델이 무시되기 쉬우므로, 레이저 측량 기술을 이용한 공간대상물에 대한 높은 정확도 취득이 크게 필요한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 원격탐사 영상 Data를 중심으로 하는 정사보정하고 이에 매칭 할 수 있는 수치 지도 벡터와의 통합 및 전환으로 다차원 공간에서 건물 모델의 생성과 다양한 활용을 제시하는 것을 연구목적으로 하였고, 연구방법으로는 기존의 이미 취득한 2차원적인 평면사진을 지상 기준점에 의하여 정밀기하보정을 하여 얻은 사진영상자료를 이용하여 3차원 공간정보로 구성하기 위해서는 동일지역에 대한 수준 측량결과인 높이 데이터를 매칭하여야 하므로, 항공기에 탑재한 센서로 모든 대상지에 대한 지형지물의 고밀도의 높이 값을 획득하여 위치보정 작업 후에 3D로 매칭할 수는 방법을 연구하여 실험하도록 하였다 또한 본 연구에서는 연구대상지역의 지형조건, 기존 노선과의 비교, 토지이용, 지형경사, 사면방향, 지가 등을 분석하여 각각의 경중률을 고려한 후 선택된 후보노선들을 비교분석함으로서 최적노선을 선정하고자 하였다.

Recently, the government has improvement projects of dangerous road for the site that has very high accident rate due to bad geometric structures of the road. Although, route selecting of the road is a basic and important process, but the process of route selecting must consider the technical, safety and environment factor together. Also, the technology for the 3-dimensional terrain model can be used as an important factor in planning and designing for selecting alternative route projects. In the course of experimenting with the 3-dimensional topography generated by the combination of the digital map and drawing of route, the technology as been developed to offer the multi-dimensional access to the potential construction sites from the nearby main roads. This 3-dimensional digital elevation model has made it possible to make various terrain analysis base on GIS, which provides real-time virtual access to the designated construction sites for development planning and construction projects. Therefore, this study presents a reasonable plan for route selecting from some alternative routes through subjective evaluation and classify the methods linked basic design of road construction.

A balanced evaluation system for a bus route network was proposed for a mid-sized suburban city. The evaluation system consists of 7 criteria-accessibility, riding comfort. transfer rate, directness of route, productivity of operation, regional equity, and minimum requirement of bus fleet - and quantitative indicators representing each of the criteria. The proposed system was applied in Siheung, a suburban city in Seoul Metropolitan Area. Four alternative scenarios of bus route network including the existing one were evaluated. The results showed that the suggested criteria and indicators are acceptable for the evaluation of a bus route network. In order to enhance the proposed evaluation procedure, further studies on the normalization of produced values and weights for each of the indicators are needed.

The planning procedure of a transit operation consists of design, operation, and evaluation according to the research characteristics. There are some review studies on the operation and evaluation procedure, but the research on the design procedure has not yet been organized systematically. In this study, the research on transit system design was reviewed and the model structure and its solution method were arranged. The decision variables of the design procedure are network structure, line spacing or position, stop spacing, dispatching headway, and fleet size. In the analytical research on design procedure, system total cost is generally used as the objective function. System total cost is comprised of user cost, which is the sum of user access, waiting, and travel cost, and operating cost. Total cost of the transit system, used as the objective function, has the unique minimum because it is differentiable. There is a certain decision variable that makes the derivative of the objective function equal to zero and the second derivative of the objective function is positive. Therefore the decision variable that makes the first derivative of the objective function zero is the optimum that minimizes the objective function, and each of the cost components of the objective function become the same. This study is expected to help understanding about the research on the design procedure of transit operation planning and to help be a catalyst for relevant research.
