The purpose of this study is to investigate the environmental equity of the accessibility to public transportation services in the city of Daegu. The 2005 census data as well as bus stop and subway station datasets were integrated for building the GIS database. Public transportation service areas were then identified by a coverage method. Mann Whitney U test was used for statistically comparing the socioeconomic characteristics over different levels of access to the public transportation services. Both Dong-gu, Suseong-gu, Dalseo-gu, and Buk-gu located outside of the city had worse accessibility than others while Jung-gu, Seo-gu, and Nam-gu had better accessibility than others. There appeared no environmental inequity pattern in terms of the percentages of men, women, and teenagers over the city of Daegu whereas there existed some environmental inequity pattern in terms of the percentages of people above the age of 65 and people below poverty line. This environmental inequity pattern would be caused by some factors. Firstly, the lower income class has tended to reside in the declined or blighted areas far away from public transportation facilities since this class can not afford to pay expensive rents and land prices around the main roads with higher accessibility. Many old people belonging to the lower income class also reside in the declined or blighted areas. Secondly, there has been no law to locate bus stops and subway stations considering residents' socioeconomic characteristics and the spatial distribution of public transportation facilities has been not managed systematically by the city government. This research would shed insight on building the public transportation policy to locate bus stops and subway stations and to select the routes of buses and subways considering the spatial distribution of residents' socioeconomic characteristics.

The special means of transportation introduced to improve the mobility of the transportation vulnerable met the number of legal standards in 2016, but lack of development in terms of quality, such as the existence of long waiting times. In order to streamline the operation of special means of transportation, long-term standby traffic, which is the top 25% of the wait time, was extracted from the Daegu Metropolitan Government's special transportation history data, and spatial autocorrelation analysis and social network analysis were conducted. As a result of the analysis, the correlation between the average waiting time of special transportation users and the space was high. As a result of the analysis of internal degree centrality, the peak time zone is mainly visited by general hospitals, while the off-peak time zone shows high long-term waiting demand for visits by lawmakers. The analysis of external degree centrality showed that residential-based traffic demand was high in both peak and off-peak hours. The results of this study are considered to contribute to the improvement of the quality of the operation of special transportation means, and the academic implications and limitations of the study are also presented.

This study aimed to investigate the impact of the quality of the street environment in residential areas on the mental health of urban residents, considering the frequency of street use. Using a zero-inflated negative binomial regression model, the study analyzed the influence of walking frequency and the street environment on depressive symptoms of urban residents. The research focused on Seoul, South Korea, in 2017, with depressive symptoms as the dependent variable and street environment variables, walking variables, and individual characteristics as independent variables. Additionally, the study explores the interaction effect of street greenery and walking frequency to analyze the synergistic impacts of walking in green spaces on mental health. The findings indicate that a higher ratio of street green areas is associated with fewer depressive symptoms. Increased walking frequency is linked to a reduction in depressive symptoms or a weaker manifestation of such symptoms. The interaction effect confirms that more frequent walking in green spaces is associated with weaker depressive symptoms. Lower ratios of visual complexity are correlated with reduced depressive symptoms. This study contributes to addressing urban residents' mental health issues at the community level by emphasizing the importance of the street green environment in residential areas.

The purpose of this study is to examine the research trends regarding the published articles in the Journal of Korean Gerongological Society within the past 10 years. This study is based on the article written by Won and Mo (2008). This article classified previously published studies into themes, methods, and application of theory. Out of the total of 187 articles published in the past 10 years, 11 articles were about social change and institution, 94 articles were about social issues, 12 articles were about social problems and deviation, 42 articles were about social culture, 14 papers were about gerontological theory and 13 papers were about residence/architecture. In the last 10 years, the most popular topic was around the various ways aging. New topic that emerged was the effect of IT and technology on the quality of life among the older adults. Other topics that gained interest were age discrimination and prejudice on aging. Trends in research methods showed increased use of qualitative methods. In the future, more research needs to be completed to theorize the results of quantitative research. Furthermore, the use of qualitative research methods needs to be increased in order to understand the lives of older adults in depth. Through more meta analysis, the results of past research articles should be synthesized to get a bigger picture of the Korean older adults.

본 연구의 목적은 설문조사를 통해 주민들이 실정에 맞는 거주자우선주차제의 실행 요건을 결정하는데 있다. 연구의 구성은 제2장에서 거주자우선주차제의 이론적 배경을 검토 하고, 제3장에서는 실행요건의 결정을 위한 연구분석의 틀을 제시하며, 제4장에서는 설문조 사의 방법과 조사내용에 대한 분석결과를 제시한다. 마지막으로 제5장에서는 결론과 정책건 의로 맺음한다. 이론적으로 분석결과 거주자우선주차제는 주차수요관리와 주차장공급촉진이 라는 2원적인 목표를 내재하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 그결과 허가요금, 시행시간대 등의 실 행요건을 결정하는데 있어서 다양한 외부요인들을 고려하여야 할 필요가 있으며, 외부요인 들은 거주자들의 사회경제적 특성, 주거환경적특성, 주차행태적 특성, 기타특성 들로 구성된 다. 실행요건을 결정하기 위해 주민들에 대한 설문조사를 실시하였고 그 분석결과는 다음과 같다. 1) 요금수준 결정시 차고지 공급 목적일 경우 높은 수준의 요금을 부과하되 지역적 소득수준을 감안 하여야 하며, 목적이 수요관리에 있을 때는 외부인에 대한 규제만 하면 되 기 때문에 주민들에게는 무료이거나 가능한 낮은 요금을 징수하는 것이 바람직하다. 2) 공 간적 범위는 주민들의 근거리주차 선호 때문에 블록단위 또는 세가로를 중심으로 시행하되, 집앞돌폭이 4m 미만이거나 8m 이상일 경우에는 공간적 범위를 넓게 잡는 것이 바람직 할 것이다. 3) 주차면 배정은 독점적 사용권을 부여하는 방식이 공공재의 사유화라는 부작용 및 주차면의 비효율적 사용이라는 측면이 있기 때문에 가능한 공동이용방식을 채용함이 바 람직 한 것으로 나타났다. 4) 외부인 주처허가는 전용주택가 지역에서는 허용하여도 그리 큰 문제는 없을 것이나, 외부인 주차수요가 많은 지역에서는 무조건적 허락보다는 요금지불, 주차확인증과 같은 제도적 보완을 통해 허용해야 한다. 5) 시행시간대 결정시 전용주거지역 에서는 야간만 실시하여도 문제가 없으나 그외 지역에서는 주차수요를 고려하여 주간 또는 전일로 시행할 필요가 있다. 특히 주차문제가 하루종일 발생하는 경우와 출퇴근시 주차문제 가 많은 곳에서는 하루종일 시행할 필요가 있다. 그러나 차고지 확보율이 지나치게 낮은 곳 에서는 야간시 주민반대에 부디칠 가능성이 크기 때문에 차고지 여건이 개선될 때 까지는 시행을 보류할 필요가 있을 것으로 판단된다.

전 세계적인 기후변화로 인해 홍수가 발생하는 빈도가 상승하고 있으며, 도시화가 발달됨에 따라 재산 피해 금액도 증가하는 추세이다. 이와 같은 홍수피해를 저감시키기 위하여 수공 구조물의 보강 및 설치와 같은 효과적인 구조적 대책이 필수적이다. 구조적 대책의 경우 예방차원의 재난관리를 위하여 치수 사업 전/후의 경제성을 평가해야 하는데, 국내에서는 개선법과 다차원 홍수피해 산정법(MD-FDA, 이하 다차원법)을 활용하여 정량적인 경제성 평가를 수행하고 있다. 그리고 다차원법의 경우 공간정보자료인 토지피복도를 활용하기 때문에 침수된 건물을 각각 산정해줌으로서 보다 정확한 경제성 분석을 실시할 수 있지만 산정 절차가 복잡하여 시간이 오래 걸리는 단점을 지니고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 개선법과 다차원법의 단점을 보완하고자 격자단위 공간정보를 활용한 건물피해 산정방법을 제안하고자 하였다. 국토정보플랫폼에서는 100m×100m 격자 자료를 제공해주고 있으며, 각각의 격자에는 단독 주거, 공동 주거의 공간정보 자료가 구축 되어있다. 이러한 격자자료와 홍수범람지도를 중첩하여 격자 단위 홍수 피해액을 산정함으로서 절차를 간결하게 할 수 있다. 또한 본 연구를 통하여 추정된 피해 금액과 비교적 정확한 홍수 피해액을 추정하는 기존 다차원법의 피해 금액을 비교하여 격자단위 공간정보를 활용한 건물피해 산정방법을 평가하였다. 본 연구를 통하여 개발한 방법을 사용하게 된다면 경제성분석 결과가 과대 산정되는 개선법을 보완할 수 있으며, 계산과정이 복잡하여 실무에서의 적용성이 부족한 다차원법의 문제점도 보완할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. 또한 신속한 피해액 추정을 통하여 홍수 피해를 예방하는데 필요한 치수사업을 빠르게 선정함으로서 후속 피해를 신속히 예방할 수 있을 것이다.

The purpose of this study was to suggest indicator-based selection and improvement plans for evaluating urban regeneration projects. First, we selected the indicators by conducting expert surveys and analysis of the responses received. Additionally, using the selected indicators, we analyzed the residents' opinions in Wongogae Village, where urban regeneration projects were in progress. Based on these, we suggested a plan to improve Wongogae Village. According to the study, we classified the urban regeneration evaluation indicators into 'Physical environment', 'Social environment' and 'Economic environment' according to their characteristics. We selected urban regeneration evaluation factors through the first expert survey and MCB analysis. As a result, we selected six factors for the 'Physical environment' category: 'Traffic and pedestrian environment', 'Residential (housing) environment', 'Safety and security environment', 'Greenspace', 'Landscape improvement' and 'Public space', In the 'Social environment' category, four factors were chosen: 'Resident participation', 'Community activation', 'Role of the local government and support centers' and 'Resident education' while for the 'Economic environment' category three factors were selected: 'Local economic revitalization', 'Creating an economy-based environment', 'Job creation'. Next, we conducted a second expert survey and carried out an AHP analysis using the selected evaluation factors to derive the overall weight for each. Among the evaluation factors for urban regeneration, the 'Residential (housing) environment' has the highest weighted value of 0.108, followed by 'Local economic revitalization' and 'Resident participation'. Lastly, the analysis of the residents' opinions of Wongogae Village using the urban regeneration evaluation factors, Parking environment', 'Maintenance of old houses and living environment', 'Environment for founding town and social enterprises', 'Improve commercial and business environment', 'Maintain and activate existing business' and 'Vitalizing small regional economies such as domestic handicrafts and side-job' had high overall importance, but low satisfaction, which means that it is necessary to improve the focus. Therefore, in order to improve the urban regeneration project in villages, it is necessary to improve the parking environment by expanding public parking lots, eliminate close houses, and idle lands, or open a school playground in the village for the residents. In addition, it is essential to encourage economic activities, such as fostering village enterprises and social enterprises in connection with cooperatives and allow for the selling of the products through resident activities, such as neighboring markets.

A new urban paradigm that moves from a vehicle-centric to pedestrian-centric culture should be considered to improve the quality of the pedestrian environments for women, children, senior citizens, and disabled persons as well as to promote community unification by providing general movement rights to everyone. This study was implemented to provide decent alternatives to improve street spaces. The street spaces around the Commercial and Residential Area No.1 located in the Administrative-Centered City, Sejong Special Autonomic City, were selected to analyze and define the status of the walkways and the street spaces. Satellite imagery and numerical maps were used to collect geographic data. Practical and actual surveys for the selected sites were performed to analyze the street status and the pedestrian status. Based on the all collected data, analysis results, and literature reviews, the questionnaire was made, and 315 inquiries qualified for analysis. The physical status of all four study sites was the highest level, Grade A, and green open spaces were relatively sufficient. As a result, the factors obtained from the factor analysis have an impact on the satisfaction of the pedestrian streets in the commercial area. The factors are as followed Design > Convenience > Roadside trees and rest areas > Safety > Safety protective facilities > Transportation and information facilities > Continuity > Basic state of road surfaces > Comfortability, and in the residential area: Transportation and information facilities > Basic state of road surfaces > Comfort > Convenience > Continuity > Design > Illumination and crime prevention facilities > Safety > Roadside trees and rest areas.
