The cases of animals unusual behavior have been reported occasionally before a major disaster occurs. Could animals unusual behavior associated with a major disaster occurrence, if so, could we foreknow a disaster occurrence? The purpose of study is to quest an answer through literature reviews on the relation between animals unusual behavior and premonitory symptoms of an earthquake. These empirical studies are classified three parts according as methodological framework; statistical analysis, experimental analysis, observation analysis. The results are simply divided as two, 'animals unusual behavior may be seen as a precursor of pre-disaster phenomena' and 'difficult to see.' A number of studies have been performed abroad, however there is no one in Korea. Most of the studies point out common limitations-difficult to verify the reliability of data, accidentally get and fewer samples of data, difficulty of ensuring appropriate data, etc. That is why more related research with animals unusual behavior and disaster occurrence is needed to validate cause-and-effect relation of animal unusual behavior and pre-disaster phenomena.

The number of large and complex buildings is growing and they are usually concentrated in metropolitan cities. There is a possibility in such buildings that a small accident can expand to a massive disaster since their scale and complexity. To deal with this issue, a research on gas sensors which can detect multiple gases and early-warning systems has been conducted. Proper criteria or standards are necessary for effective application and operation of such sensor-based disaster monitoring system. In this study, we have proposed the alarm criteria of concentration of hazardous gases for the detection and the alarm release. For each alarm level, systematic disaster response plans consist of responsive actions and information delivery have been prepared. These disaster monitoring criteria can help the detection of hazardous gas-related disaster in the early stage of accident and the provision of appropriate emergency responses.

Recently, large-scale multi-hazards have been occurred in the various areas of the world. A variety of Earth observation sensors such as satellite EO, aerial and terrestrial LiDAR have been utilized for global natural disaster monitoring. Especially, commercial satellites which observe the Earth regularly and repeatedly, and acquire images with cm-level high spatial resolution enable its applications to extend in the fields of disaster management from advanced disaster monitoring to timely recovery. However, due to existing satellite operation systems with some limitations in almost real-time and wide regional disaster response, close international collaborations between satellite operating organizations like NASA, JAXA, KARI etc. have been required for collecting satellite images in time through a satellite platform with multi-sensors or satellite constellation. For responding domestic natural disaster such as heavy snowfall and extreme rainfall in 2011, this paper proposes a disaster management system for timely decision-making; rapid acquisition of satellite imagery, data processing, GIS analysis, and digital mapping through cooperation with NDMI in Korea and International Charter-Space and Major disasters.

High-resolution satellites capable of observing the Earth periodically enhance applicability of remote sensing in the field of national disaster management from national disaster pre-monitoring to rapid recovery planning. The National Disaster Management Research Institute (NDMI) has been developed various satellite-based disaster management technologies and applied to disaster site operations related to typhoons and storms, droughts, heavy snowfall, ground displacement, heat wave, and heavy rainfall. Although the limitation of timely imaging of satellite is a challenging issue in emergent disaster situation, it can be solved through international cooperation to cope with global disasters led by domestic and international space development agencies and disaster organizations. This article of special issue deals with the scientific disaster management technologies using remote sensing and advanced equipments of NDMI in order to detect and monitor national disasters occurred by global abnormal climate change around the Korean Peninsula: satellite-based disaster monitoring technologies which can detect and monitor disaster in early stage and advanced investigation equipments which can collect high-quality geo-information data at disaster site.

Ontake Volcano, Japan, began to erupt without any precursors on September 27, 2014, at 11:52 AM, and it caused many losses of life. Although Japan's preparation manual and prevention for volcanic eruptions and volcanic hazards has been well established, it could not prevent damage due to the sudden eruption of the volcano. Soon after the eruption, however, Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) led many organizations and institutions, including JMA's Volcanic Eruption Prediction Liaison Council, Meteorological Research Institute (MRI) and National Agriculture and Food Research Organization and they understood the eruption situation quickly and shared the information based on their close cooperation and contact systems. Through these efforts, JMA published the unified result to the public, informing the public of the situation around the volcano and about the eruption and of how the residents and climbers around the volcano should react to the volcanic hazards caused by the eruption. The Korean Government can learn how to respond to a future eruption of a volcano, such as Mt. Baekdu which has the potential to erupt in the foreseeable future.

인류의 문명과 함께한 재난 중에서 가뭄은 역사를 거슬러 올라가면 국가의 존폐 위기를 가늠할 정도의 큰 재앙이었다. 우리나라의 가뭄상황을 파악하고 가뭄정보시스템을 구축하기 위해 국내 외의 가뭄관련 기관인 국토해양부, 기상청, 농림수산식품부, 환경부 뿐만아니라, 미국 네브라스카주 링컨대학교내에 설립되어 있는 국립가뭄경감센터(NDMC) 등에 대하여 살펴보았다. 본 연구에서는 우리나라 재난전담기관인 소방방재청에서 가뭄정보시스템을 구축함에 있어 실용적으로 유용한 시스템이 되기 위한 구축방안을 제시하고자 하였다. 국내의 물 관련 기관들이 구축해놓은 다양한 실시간 관측시스템을 연계 활용하기 위하여 가뭄관련 부처인 행정안전부, 국토해양부, 기상청, 농림수산식품부, 환경부 및 소방방재청 등에서 물 관련 현황을 파악하여 실시간 관측정보들을 파악하였다. 소방방재청에서는 국가가뭄정보시스템을 구축하기 위하여 2008년부터 연구를 시작하였으며, 우리나라 각 부처에서 구축한 가뭄관련 시스템들의 조사를 통해 생활 공업 농업용수 분야별로 시스템 구축을 위한 시사점들을 살펴보았다. 가뭄정보시스템의 구축방향 제시에 있어서는 동시접속으로 인한 인터넷 과부하를 예방하면서 실시간으로 수신되는 자료를 활용하여 좀 더 정확한 현황정보를 제공함으로써 시스템 활성화를 기하고자 하였다. 가뭄정보시스템을 구축함에 있어 내부 계산부문과 외부 표출부문으로 나누는 것이 합리적인 것으로 판단되었다. 내부 계산 부문에서는 여러 기관으로부터 수신되는 실시간 자료를 행정안전부 국립방재연구원 분석 평가 센터에서 관리하고 있는 서버에 집적하여 가뭄관련 정보를 수치적으로 계산하는 부문이다. 여기서는 강우자료를 토대로 하여 가뭄지수의 산정과 생활 공업 농업용수 분야별로 지역별 수요량과 공급량의 상태를 파악하여 실시간 가뭄지수(RDI)를 산정할 수 있도록 한다. 실시간 가뭄지수(RDI)는 지역 주민들이 가뭄으로 인한 용수량 현황을 알 수 있는 가뭄지수가 되도록 하고자 한다. 특히, 가뭄지수의 산정제시에 있어서는 가뭄지수에 따른 재해피해 상황을 제시하여 피해를 체감할 수 있도록 하며, 농어촌공사 관할 저수지의 실시간 저수율을 활용하여 공간적 분포를 고려하고 가뭄발생에 대한 간이상수도 및 마을상수도 등의 지역별 용수공급 가능성에 대한 전조정보를 파악하여 가뭄발생 이전에 사전 대응할 수 있도록 구축하고자 한다. 외부 표출 부문은 내부에서 계산된 결과 값을 인터넷의 부하를 줄이면서 자치단체 담당자들이 쉽고 빠르게 관할지역의 궁금한 정보를 파악할 수 있게 인터넷 홈페이지에 게시하여 가뭄정보를 공유하고자 한다.
