본 고는 도로선형 설계에 확율 및 경제요소를 반영시키는 방법과 그에 따른 효과를 파악하는데 목적을 두고 있다. 접근방법은 도로사용자 비용과 도로시공 및 유지관리 비용 등을 포함하는 총비용을 예상비용함수로 나타내어 이 비용함수를 최소화함으로써 최적 도로선형 설계방법을 찾는 것이다. 이와 더불어 본 고는 이 개념에 의한 최적 설계방법을 등반차선(Climbing lane)의 설계에 적용하였다. 즉, 오르막길의 경사 및 거리에 따른 등반차선의 최적 위치를 찾기 위해 우선 오르막길에서의 승용차와 트럭의 속도분포를 찾아내고 예상예비함수를 등식화하여 그 최적해를 구함으로써 등반차선의 최적 위치를 구하였다. 현재 등반차선의 설계과정(AASHTO, 1984)은 트럭 주행능력에 따른 가정과 트럭과 승용차의 최대 속도 차이를 임의로 선택하여 등반차선의 최적 위치를 찾고 있다. 따라서 본 고에서는 기존 등반차선 설계방법과 새로운 설계방법을 상호 비교하면서 새로운 방법의 타당성과 그에 따른 설계이점들을 증명하였다.

A traffic accident analysis method was developed and tested based on the highway alignment risk indices using geographic information systems(GIS). Impacts of the highway alignment on traffic accidents have been identified by examining accidents occurred on different alignment conditions and by investigating traffic accident risk indices(TARI). Evaluative criteria are suggested using geometric design elements as an independent variable. Traffic accident rates were forecasted more realistically and objectively by considering the interaction between highway alignment factors and the design consistency. And traffic accident risk indices and risk ratings were suggested based on model estimation results and accident data. Finally, forecasting traffic accident rates, evaluating the level of risk and then visualizing information graphically were combined into one system called risk assessment system by means of GIS. This risk assessment system is expected to play a major role in designing four-lane highways and developing remedies for highway sections susceptible to traffic accidents.

고해상도의 위성영상이 수집됨에 따라 이에서 지형지물을 자동 추출하려는 분야가 점차 중요해지고 있다. 지형지물을 수작업을 거치지 않고 추출하는 방법의 연구 중에서는 지형지물의 경계추출을 기반으로 하는 방법이 많이 이용된다. 그러나 일반적으로 추출된 지형지물 경계의 선형이 왜곡된 형태를 갖으며, 지형지물의 실제 경계의 형태와는 다소 차이가 있는 결과를 보인다. 이 연구에서는 선형이 굴곡이 있는 지형지물 중 건축물의 경계를 인접한 도로 정보를 이용하여 실제의 경계 형태에 가깝게 보정하는 방법을 검토하였다. context 정보로서 이것을 이용한다면 블록 내의 건축물의 경계를 보다 규칙적으로 정비할 수 있을 것이다. 이 연구에서는 이러한 전제를 가지고 도로로 분할된 블록 내 건축물 경계를 도로의 방향을 기반으로 보정하는 방법을 제안하였다.

This study modeled 4-lane highway in three-dimensional virtual reality in order to overcome difficulties of field experiment. and the research subject was placed in a driving simulator. We survey the driver's cognitive characteristics to the alignment changes in the three-dimensional virtual reality highway. Especially, maximizing the identity of driving movements and virtual scenery on the basis of the data obtained by dynamic analysis module. we minimized simulator sickness for the graphic module of driving simulator. And we carried out cognitive evaluation on the basis of adjective words extracted by dictionary and the opinion of specialist. In this study LISREL model was used to detect the causal relation between geometry and safety in cognitive side, and found that geometric change affects the safety of drivers by static and dynamic road safety model in three-dimensional combined alignments. As the result, for constructing safety road. we consider drivers' cognitive characteristics as human factors in road design, and we think that they are very important factors to improve road safety.

By using the current road design method that is based on the regulation about structure and facilities standard of the road and the route plan guide of a national road and the alignment optimization road design method which is studied in the inside and outside of country, this study operate the route plan of the sample study and compare and analysis the route character, consequently the current design method has local optimization that is formed the plan by the stage and the section. Alignment optimization road design has the system optimal route search. But cost function has limite that caused by construction parameter that is not included in cost function. So we design a road route included cost function in main fields. As a result, we obtain a realistic and economically road route. The alignment optimization road design model has to be made up some problems, like the change of vertical gradient in the tunnel section, though this defects it has a lot of merits as a geometric design tool, especially in the feasibility study and the scheme design.

In this research, a vertical alignment analysis algorithm was developed. The developed algorithm used acquired data from a vehicle with multiple sensors such as a global positioning system (GPS) an inertial navigation system (INS), and a distance measuring unit (DMI) to collect information about vehicle position and altitude. The vertical alignment analysis algorithm includes the identification of vertical tangent sections, the beginning and ending points of vertical curves, and the calculation of length of vortical curves. Also, the algorithm can help build models for vertical tangent sections and vertical curve sections. In order to verify the algorithm, a field survey was conducted at an actual highway section and the result of the field survey was compared to a highway CAD drawing.

A laser scanning technique has been attracting much attention as a new technology to acquire location information. This technique might be applicable to a wide range of areas, most notably in geomatics, due to its high accuracy of location and automation of high-density data acquisition. A alignment information extraction system on highway has been developed in this study by utilizing the advantages of the laser scanning technique. The system can accurately interpret the alignment information of highway and can be applied to actual works. To develop the alignment information extraction system on highway, an algorithm that can automatically separate a horizontal alignment into a straight line, a transition curve, and a circular curve was developed. It can increase its efficiency compared to the conventional methods. In addition, an algorithm that can automatically extract design elements of horizontal and vertical alignments of highway was developed and applied to an object highway. This yielded higher practicality with more accurate values compared to those from previous studies on the extraction of design elements of highway alignment. Furthermore, the extracted design elements were used to perform a virtual driving simulation on the object highway. Through this, data were provided for a visual judgment for judging visually whether the topography and structures were harmonized in a three-dimensional manner or not. The study also presents data that can serve as a basis to determine highway surface freezing sections and to analyze three-dimensional sight distance models. Through the establishment of a systematic database for diverse data on highway and the development of web-based operating programs, an efficient highway maintenance can be ensured and also they can provide important information to be used when estimating a highway safety in the future.
