The Ministry of Public Safety and Security was established in order to handle all sorts of disasters because of Sewol ferry tragedy and the fundamental reform on the emergency management system will be performed. The establishment of the Ministry of Public Safety and Security is considered as the landmark for the emergency management when it is compared to those in the United States and Japan in terms of the size and the authority. However, there are many tasks to be done for the settlement of the Ministry of Public Safety and Security. More specifically, a real and substantial plan should be prepared because the organization was established without blueprints or detailed implementation plan. This study suggests that all-hazard approach which is the one of the disaster management principles should be applied when the substantial plan is prepared. All possible hazard should be analyzed, assessed, and prioritized. In addition, Based on the results, the effective policies should be established with the consideration of Korean context.

In this study, in order to efficiently perform smart city river management, we developed an integrated platform that connects flood analysis models on the web and provides information by converting input and output data into a database. In the integrated platform, a watershed analysis model, a river flow analysis model and an urban runoff analysis model were applied to perform flood analysis in smart city. This platform is able to obtain more reliable results by step-by-step approach to urban runoff that may occur in smart city through the applied model. In addition, since all analysis processes such as data collection, input data generation and result storage are performed on the web, anyone in an environment that can access the web without special equipment or tools can perform analysis and view results. Through this, it is expected that smart city managers can efficiently manage urban runoff and nearby rivers, and can also be used as educational materials for urban outflows.

Existing efforts to reduce total egress time actually focused on reducing travel time. However, consideration to reduce perception time or response time was insufficient although the ratio of travel time is one-third of total egress time and situations which the safety cannot be ensured by only reducing travel time were aroused. Therefore, the concept of disaster information, which could reduce both perception time and response time got attention To analyze the effect of disaster information on occupant behaviour, this study identified a relationship between 10 major disaster information and 3 occupant behaviour factors in terms of reducing egress time. By referring the relationship, this study conducted an virtual egress experiment with survey on 4 cases, the elderly, intellectual disabled, hearing disabled and visual disabled, to identify disaster information which reduce total egress time effectively. Finally, by analyzing the experiment result, this study proposed the process of disaster information effect on occupant behaviour as complementing insufficient occupant behaviour to ensure the minimum level of safety and maximizing relatively high occupant behaviour to ensure enough level of safety. The results are expected to account for relationship between disaster information and occupant behaviour with more explanatory power in terms of egress time. With further studies of disaster information and group behaviour, these series of studies could provide basic references for disaster information and occupant behaviour.

Fire station is a response agency of disaster management. Its various field experience and materials could build up to database to support fire prevention and fire fighting, but it has not been worked out efficiently. To overcome this inefficiency, National Emergency Management Agency(NEMA) has made total improvement in "National Fire Investigation Data Classification System" mainly done by its Fire Investigation and Analysis Team. This study reviews existing fire investigation and data accumulation and analysis process so that it could be used as a basic data for "National Fire Investigation Data Classification System" operation.

This study aims to propose disaster safety information service model based on LOD for effective management and dissemination of the information. To achieve the aim of this study, current state of disaster safety information was analyzed through online search and face-to-face interviews, and then the information was divided into 6 types. Finally, this study proposed specific process of building disaster safety information LOD service with considerations reflecting the information characteristics. The process for building LOD was based on Guidelines for Building Linked Data written by National Information Society Agency. Especially, ontology concept model was defined by using standard lexical resources and modeling tools based on 6 types of disaster safety information, and classes and properties were proposed. The results of this study will make disaster safety information more useful for common people.

This paper examines the evolving role of ijang(village representative) and his job stress during Pyeongchang floods in 2006. Results based on telephone survey and interviews reveal that ijang played a crucial role in evacuating residents, allocating resources and commanding the recovery, although official job description considered him as only a mediator between local officers and villagers. Moreover, unexpected enormous burden created severe job stress to many ijangs; while 60 percent felt like quitting the job, about three fourth felt fretful whenever the telephone rang and lost some weights. Chi-square analysis also indicated that previous job training, villagers' abuse, and disaster damages were significantly related with job stress. These results suggest that the emergent human resources model rather than the command and control model can be an effective approach for a disaster management plan in rural Korea.

In the modern society, the number of people in disaster vulnerable groups is rapidly increasing such as the elderly, the disabled, foreigners, and children. The common characteristics of the groups vulnerable to disasters are that they live in residence types that are exposed to disasters because they are impoverished and if they are exposed to disasters, recovery is a slow process. The purpose of this study is to identify the new risk issues by performing risk issue analysis on the targets of disaster vulnerable group and provide base data for the development of the policies. For the research method, this study centered on the cases of children and pregnant women out of the disaster vulnerable groups and focused on the issue data of social media throughout the past 10 years ('10~'19) and performed social network analysis. As a result, first, the development of the issue showed relevance in the occurrence of specific cases. Second, the awareness about the types, targets, and management method of crisis management was analyzed. Third, an analysis was performed on the sentiment words that considered the solution measures of risk issues or the characteristics of the targets and it was analyzed that there were word that triggered negative emotions. Therefore, it is anticipated for the base data to be used for the government and also for the local government to build an effective crisis management system of the rapidly changing disaster environment on the basis of the sentiment analysis performed on the people of the nation as well as public awareness.

이상기상현상의 발생횟수가 지속적으로 증가함에 따라 기상 예측은 국가 재난 관리에 중요한 요소로써 부상하고 있다. 계절예측 또한 재난관리의 한 부분으로, 농업, 에너지, 수자원 그리고 공공보건 등 다양한 분야에서 잠재적 위험을 파악하는데 도움이 되는 보조 자료로 활용이 가능하다. 본 연구에서는 ICON(ICOsahedral-Nonhydrostatic) 모델을 이용하여 2015년 여름철(JJA) 강수를 예측하였다. 2015년은 장마기간을 포함한 여름철 동안 평년대비 약 절반수준(54%)에 그치는 비가 내렸으며, 태풍으로 인한 강수량도 적어 연 강수량이 평년대비 72%로 역대 최저 3위를 기록하였다. 지역별로 보면 제주도와 남해안 지방을 제외한 대부분 지방에서 강수량이 적게 나타났으며, 수도권을 중심으로는 60% 미만의 강수량을 보였다. ICON 모델은 독일 기상청(DWD)과 막스플랑크 연구소(MPI-M)에서 공동 개발하여 현업 운영중인 전 지구 모델로 비정역학 코어를 사용한다. 전 지구를 정 20면체의 삼각형으로 격자화 시켜 모든 격자의 크기가 동일하고, 극점은 1개의 꼭짓점으로 구성되어 CFL(Courant-Friderich-Lewy) 문제가 해소될 수 있다. 또한 hybrid의 병렬구조를 사용하여 전산사용 효율성을 극대화 하는 특징이 있다. 강수의 계절 예측 수행 과정은 다음과 같다. 우선, 계절예측 자료 분석 시 활용할 ICON모델의 기후값을 생산하기 위해 30년(1980년~2009년)간의 AMIP기반 규준실험을 수행한다. 다음으로, SST와 Sea ice의 평년대비 현재 변동량을 계산하고, 이 자료는 모델 적분을 수행할 때 경계 자료로서 활용하게 된다. 계절 예측은 시간 지연기법(Time-lagged method)를 이용한 앙상블예측으로 수행하며, 예측하고자 하는 계절이 시작하기 약 1개원 이전부터 1일 간격으로 전 지구 모델의 초기자료를 다르게 선택하여 총 10개의 앙상블 멤버를 구성한다. 모델의 해상도는 수평 40km, 수직 90개 층으로 구성하였으며, 적분이 완료되면 AMIP기반 실험을 통해 모의된 기후값을 토대로 예측된 계절전망 자료의 변동성을 분석한다.

In this paper, a dynamic warning system to forecast inland flooding associated with typhoons and storms is described. The system is used operationally during the typhoon season to anticipate the potential impact such as inland flooding on the coastal zone of interest. The system has been developed for the use of the public and emergency management officials. Simple typhoon models for quick prediction of wind fields are implemented in a user-friendly way by using a Graphical User Interface (GUI) of MATLAB. The main program for simulating tides, depth-averaged tidal currents, wind-driven surges and currents was also vectorized for the fast performance by MATLAB. By pushing buttons and clicking the typhoon paths, the user is able to obtain real-time water level fluctuation of specific points and the flooding zone. This system would guide local officials to make systematic use of threat information possible. However, the model results are sensitive to typhoon path, and it is yet difficult to provide accurate information to local emergency managers.
