Information about trafficability or the condition of road with regard to its being traveled over by vehicles is one of the most critical factors for roadway operation in winter. Specifically, when traveling on snowy or icy surfaces, the traction force varies per vehicle type including tire types, geometric characteristics of roads, and conditions of road surfaces. In general, front-wheel drive or four-wheel drive vehicles have better traction performance on snowy or icy surface than rear-wheel drive vehicles, and the latter type vehicle causes more serious traffic congestion when there is unexpected snowfall. Thus, traffic information regarding trafficability with respect to vehicle types, geometric characteristics of roadway sections, and roadway surface conditions can provide a foundation to make a decision whether to use the associated roadway sections for roadway operators as well as users. Based on the preceding premise, the objective of this study is to present a methodology for developing a trafficability index with respect to vehicle types, geometric characteristics of roadway sections, and roadway surface conditions.

Considering the role of roads in cities and the purpose of the Road Name Address Act, it is natural that the road name of the address is registered as the nearest road section adjacent to the building. Therefore, the Enforcement Decree of the Road Name Address Act also stipulates that mayor assign building numbers based on the basic numbers of road sections adjacent to the main entrances of buildings. However, there were cases where addresses are given from distant roads rather than adjacent roads among the actual road name addresses. Most of them are caused by misinterpretation of the case where the entrance faces more than one road. In this study, institutional and systematic improvement plans were proposed with the aim of enabling accurate selection of address information reference objects by demonstrating the limitations of the current building numbering method and presenting institutional improvement plans. Road name addresses were implemented for the core purpose of improving the inconvenience of locating the lot number address. Although some still complained of the inconvenience of road name addresses, successful settlement was possible because of the intuitive principle that most countries around the world could use it and find buildings along the road. Therefore, the system and system improvement should be made quickly in terms of accurate address information quality management and revitalization of related industries.

It is important for highway maintenance and safety assessment to get the accurate highway geometric information. However, it is difficult to acquire good highway geometric information due to missing blueprints or deteriorated highway sections. This research, to get highway geometric information rapidly, has developed a highway geometric analysis algorithm that uses data from vehicles with GPS-IMU integrated system. In conclusion, the result shows that 3.38% of error-ratio for the horizontal alignment and 0.083 absolute value difference for vertical grade comparing with highway drawings. Therefore, the result suggest that the developed method can be applied to the road safety inspection or road safety audit.

The complexity of path planning for visiting multiple mission points is even larger than that of single pair path planning. Deciding a path for visiting n mission points requires conducting $n^2+n$ times of single pair path planning. We propose Multiple Mission $D^*$ Lite($MMD^*L$) which is an optimal path planning algorithm for visiting multiple mission points in dynamic environments. $MMD^*L$ reduces the complexity by reusing the computational data of preceding single pair path planning. Simulation results show that the complexity reduction is significant while its path optimality is not compromised.

최근 4대강 살리기 사업에 의한 하천 준설과 보의 건설은 낙동강에서의 평수기와 홍수기의 수위차를 상당히 감소시켰으며 이로 인한 친수 목적으로 활용할 수 있는 공원, 캠핑장, 하상도로, 주차장 등 고수부지 공간이 다양하게 조성되면서 대국민적인 여가활동을 창출하고 있다. 이러한 하천구역 내에 조성된 친수공간은 하천 홍수로 인한 피해 위험도 또한 함께 증가함에 따라 정확한 홍수정보의 제공과 신속한 홍수예보의 발령은 증가된 홍수위험도에 대처하기 위한 필수적인 요소가 된다. 현재 홍수예보는 홍수예보지점인 수위관측소를 기준으로 발령하고 있어 실제 홍수에 취약한 구간에 대한 홍수정보를 제공하기에 어려운 것이 현실이다. 모든 홍수취약지점에서 수위관측을 통해 위험상황을 실시간으로 모니터링 하는 것이 홍수 피해에 대비하고 대응하기 위한 가장 확실한 방법이나, 예산과 인력의 문제 등으로 인해 현실적인 한계점이 존재할 수 밖에 없다. 따라서 기존의 정보를 이용하여 홍수에 신속하게 대응하기 위해, 각 친수공간이 홍수예보지점 또는 수위관측소 지점과 어떠한 연관성을 갖는지 조사할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 낙동강 유역의 취약구간에 대한 현장조사를 통해 조사구간에 대한 DB를 구축함으로써 홍수 발생시 하천변 취약구간에 효과적으로 홍수정보를 제공할 수 있는 기초자료를 확보하고자 하였다. 또한 확보된 홍수취약지구의 기초정보를 이용하여 각 친수지구가 가지는 홍수위험도를 분석하였다. 이를 위해 수위관측소 기반의 홍수취약구간 선정 기준을 정립하고, 기준에 의해 선정된 18개 수위관측소와 관련한 취약구간에 대해 현장조사를 실시하였으며, 이를 바탕으로 홍수취약구간 관리대장을 작성하였다. 연구 결과를 통해 주요 친수시설의 고도 및 좌표를 기반으로 하는 홍수위험도를 제시하였고, 이를 수위와 연계하여 홍수 발생 가능성을 제시할 수 있는 객관적인 근거를 확보할 수 있었다. 향후 이 자료는 낙동강 홍수예보에 있어 취약구간에 대한 각 수위별 지점현황과 각 지점의 홍수위험도 분석을 위한 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Recently, Inhabitants nearby the high embankment road have requested a civil complaint on the environmental deteriorations and economic harms. This study was carried out numerical simulation using the 3-D microclimate model 'Envi-met' in order to investigate the variations of a flow field and a temperature field at the road sections with a high embankment and a bridge. About the simulation of flow field, the wind field has changed due to the disturbance of airflow by a high embankment road considerably. And the wind velocity decreased in the whole of simulation space widely. But, the wind velocity and wind direction sited loose to the section of a bridge, relatively. In the results of a temperature field, the slight variations of temperature field were discovered by the disturb of the mixing flow from a high embankment road. These results indicate that the numerical simulation can provide useful information to minimize the disasters, such as traffic accidents and various microclimatic environments in the transportation projects.

The position information of individual vehicles on a road at every time instant can be used to analyze the microscopic behaviors of driving of each vehicle. The limited information obtained from previous imaging technology such as traffic volume and interval velocity cannot be used to explore such microscopic traffic conditions. Also, information gathering for the microscopic behaviors by manual analysis of captured video takes large amount of time and man-power. In the paper we develop the rule-based vehicle tracking technology from which the position information of individual vehicles on a road at every time instant can be automatically obtained. Also, we extract the position data of driving vehicles on a road, length of 130m for every 0.05 second, and calculate the velocity of each traced vehicles to compare with the real velocity for the verification of accuracy. In the future, this type of tracking techniques based on video analysis can be widely used to provide the practically important information of road traffic conditions and to analyze the academically important microscopic behaviors of driving patterns.

A Cooperative Intelligent Transportation System (CITS) provides useful information on upcoming hazards in order to prevent vehicle collisions. In addition, the availability of individual vehicle travel information obtained from the CITS infrastructure allows us to identify the level of road safety in real time and based on analysis of the indicators representing the crash potential. This study proposes a methodology to derive road safety content, and presents evaluation results for its applicability in practice, based on simulation experiments. Both jerk and Stopping Distance Index (SDI) were adopted as safety indicators and were further applied to derive road section safety information. Microscopic simulation results with VISSIM show that 5% and 20% samples of jerk and SDI are sufficient to represent road safety characteristics for all vehicles. It is expected that the outcome of this study will be fundamental to developing a novel and valuable system to monitor the level of road safety in real time.
