최근 빅 데이터 및 분석기술을 이용한 분야가 다양화되고 있다. 하지만 정작 사회복지분야로의 적용은 매우 미약한 것이 현실이다. 사회복지분야에서의 빅 데이터를 이용한 각종 개인화 복지 서비스의 제공은 경제적인 부분뿐만 아니라 서비스를 제공하는 기관이나 서비스를 제공받는 이들에게 모두 상호 유기적인 관계를 유지할 수 있다. 특히 사회 조직으로부터 은퇴하거나 떨어져서 개인적인 삶을 영위해야 하는 노인들에게 있어 그들의 라이프 로그와 같은 빅 데이터를 분석하여 복합적이며 융합적인 복지서비스를 제공하는 기법은 매우 효율적이라 할 수 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 노인들의 빅 데이터를 이용한 시간의 흐름별 옴니 복지서비스를 제공하도록 그들의 환경을 분석하는 시스템을 제안한다.
