While occasional disasters have occurred recently in urban facilities such as bridges, buildings, subways, roads and others, the systematic safety management of urban facilities is greatly needed to prevent the disaster or to minimize the damages. This study proposes the way of setting-up and managing an building disaster information system so that this experience can be applied to other urban facilities to minimize trials and errors. With such a purpose, this study presents a building safety management information system and utilizes it for the building disasten information system. This study includes research agendas as follows : building maintenance and management infonnation system, setting-up and utilization the building safety management infonnation system, building disaster infonnation system using GIS. The results suggest that the building safety management infonnation system which can be related to the urban disaster infonnation system should be constructed in advance in order to utilize the building disaster infonnation system, and that, under this condition, it proved to be easily connected to the related database, especially GIS. And, to utilize such an infonnation system, the application programs such as safety evaluation program, cost estimation program and documents management program should be readily available. In addition, other functional programs related with maintenance and management should be designed and established. The schemes or devices for practical usage should be supplemented through a standardization and a pilot project in central government or Seoul Metropolitan Government level in order to set up and utilize the building safety management infonnation system, and the related laws or regulations should be prepared or amended to support the system.

In 19th May 2014, the government announced that KCG(Korea Coast Guard) is dissolved regarding responsibility for recently accident which is Sewol ferry disaster. But KCG, a central administrative agency is responsible for protecting maritime sovereignty of South Korea; the most basic and indispensable organization. Furthermore, The purpose of KCG is to provide the safety of the public and keeping of public order by prescribing matters necessary for the securement of maritime security, maintenance of public order and protection of marine resources & facilities. Therefore, In this article, I would like to suggest tentatively named FRAMEWORK ACT ON KOREA COAST GUARD's management plan which could reflect the scope of functions. It means we examine the current state of KCG, and would like to signpost for the most ideal way of legal system in Korea Coast Guard. Finally, this treatise is expected that this research can be a guideline contribute to improving Korea Coast Guard relevant laws even a little.

Depletion of fossil fuels and sharp rise of international oil price as well as climate worming and frequent environmental disasters have required to strengthen resource(esp. energy) and environmental policy and discourse. And hence highly influential discourses and policies such as the concept of sustainable development and strategy for carbon regulation have been developed and pursued world-widely. But these concept and strategy have seemed to be subsumed in the process of neoliberalism, so as to have little effective results. This leads us to energy transition and energy autonomy or autarky as alternative strategic and normative concepts. Daegu has shown strong interests in urban energy problems relatively earlier than other cities, and developed the so-call 'Solar City' project. But it could not properly tackled with the problems, while tending to meet with the global imperatives. This paper considers urban energy problems and energy policy of Daegu with its significance and limitations, and suggests 4 principles for urban energy transition and autonomy with some concrete alternative measures; that is, the transition from fossil and nuclear energy to renewable energy, the transition from supply-led policy to demand side focusing policy, the transition from central governing energy system to locally distributed one, and the transition from market-dependent management to citizen-participatory energy governance.

Spatial information has been widely used for efficient land use and management, disaster management, environment management, infrastructure management, corporate marketing, and cultural assets management, and the need for spatial information is expected to be increased. For this reason, central government, local government and public institutions must establish a National Spatial Information System (Fifteen systems related to spatial information managed by National Spatial Data Infrastructure Policy office, NSIS) framework that guarantees high accuracy and quality. The NSIS will provide convenience usage of spatial information in the field of decision-making or civil support. However the current National Spatial Information System is mainly established with separate processes, which causes data redundancy, deterioration of information, passive opening, and sharing of the spatial data. This study suggests 4 standards, which has been derived by applying value-chain model to NSIS data flow, and they are ‘Production and Establishment’, ‘Integration and Sharing’, ‘Application and Fusion’ and ‘Release and Opening’. Based on these standards, the 15 NSIS were analyzed to draw out implications and reforming directions were suggested. By following these suggestions we expect more recent, consist, accurate, and connected National Spatial Information Service which will be more open to public and then satisfy the demands.

유량은 도섭법, 보트법, 횡측선법, 교량법 및 부자법 등 다양한 방법으로 측정되는데, 이들 측정방법 모두 많은 수의 관측자를 필요로 한다. 이들은 하천에 직접 들어가서 측정하거나, 인공구조물인 교량과 재방에서 측정되는데, 도섭법, 보트법, 횡측선법이 전자이며, 고수위 및 고유속으로 하천에 들어가지 못하는 경우에는 교량법 및 부자법을 사용하여 유량을 측정한다. 최근 지구 온난화로 따른 이상 기후가 빈번히 발생하고 있으며, 이로 인한 많은 피해가 발생하고 있어, 하천 수위, 유속 모니터링에 대한 중요성이 더 커지고 있다. 2022년 1월부터 시행 중인 「중대재해처벌법」으로 집중호우 및 일몰 이후에는 안전상의 문제로 유량측정이 어려운 상황으로 필요한 시기에 유량 데이터를 확보에 제약이 있다. 이에 관측자 없이도 유량을 측정할 수 있는 방법을 이용하여 중대 재해의 위험성을 해소하고자 하였다. 유량측정 방법으로 설치 회수가 용이한 비접촉 방식에서 영상표면유속측정 방식과 레이더(전자파)표면 유속측정 방식 중, 집중호우 및 태풍 발생 중 가시성이 확보되지 않아도 측정이 가능한 레이더(전자파) 표면유속계를 이용한 다측점 유량측정 방법을 개발하였다. 비접촉 다측점 유량측정시스템 Master 1대에 8대의 Slave를 연결할 수 있어 총 9개의 측선을 측정할 수 있게 개발하였다. 특히, 하천 및 수로 등의 표면 유속을 비접촉으로 측정하고 하천 단면을 이용하여 유량측정이 가능한 장비로 별도의 수중 및 수상 주조물 작업이 필요 없고 장비의 손상 및 유실 가능성이 거의 없고 역류 상태에서도 측정이 가능하다. 유속은 24GHz의 레이더 주파수를 송수신하여 도플러 변이를 이용하여 측정하였고, 수위는 80GHz의 레이더 주파수를 사용하여 왕복 시간을 거리로 환산하여 측정하였다. 유량은 각각의 유속계에 단면을 입력해 놓으면 유속분포법, 중간단면적법 및 지표유속법을 적용하여, 각각의 측선에 대한유량과 총 유량을 산출하였다. 그 결과, 기존 방식 대비 상당한 개선 효과를 확인하였고, 향후 환경부 등 중앙부처의 수문조사 사업에서 그 역할이 기대된다.

Due to recent mid-scale earthquakes in the Korean Peninsula, the Korean central and local governments are preparing new measures for earthquake hazard mitigation. Geological and geotechnical information is essential for earthquake hazard assessment. Thus, related data have been collected and assimilated as DBs by various national organizations. However, several problems arise when local governments intend to use this information to establish earthquake hazard mitigation measures. In the case of the geological information, small-scale geological maps make it difficult to acquire detailed information, whereas lithofacies and faults do not often match at the boundaries of large-scale geological maps. Significant geotechnical information is lost due to lack of digitalization. Present study proposes four policy plans for geological and geological information management. First, it is necessary to link industry-academictechnology fields to use the information that has already been or to be produced more efficiently and professionally. Second, local government regulations are required to be enacted and revised to accumulate a lot of geological and geotechnical information. Third an expert system should be prepared to improve the quality of the information. Fourth, it is necessary to establish a dedicated department and expand budget support for efficient information management.

As the type of Hazardous and Noxious Substances(HNS) becomes various and the transport volume of HNS increases, HNS spill incidents occur frequently on land and the sea. In view of various damages to human lives and properties by HNS spills, it is necessary to educate and train professional personnel in preparation for and response to potential HNS spills. This study shows the current state of response systems and education courses against HNS spill incidents on land and the sea to compare those with each other between land and sea in Korea. Incident command system on land are basically similar to that at sea, but leading authority which is responsible for combating HNS spills at sea is changeable depending on the location of HNS spill, as it were, Korea Coast Guard(KCG) is responsible for urgent response to HNS spill at sea, while municipalities are responsible for the response to HNS drifted ashore. Education courses for HNS responders on land are established at National Fire Service Academy(NFSA), National Institute of Chemical Safety(NICS), etc., and are diverse. Education and training courses for HNS responder at sea are established at Korea Coast Guard Academy(KCGA) and Marine Environment Research & Training Institute(MERTI), and are comparatively simple. Education courses for dangerous cargo handlers who work in port where land is linked to the sea are established at Korea Maritime Dangerous Goods Inspection & Research Institute(KOMDI), Korea Port Training Institute(KPTI) and Korea Institute of Maritime and Fisheries Technology(KIMFT). Through the comparison of education courses for HNS responders between land and sea, some recommendations such as extension of education targets, division of an existing integrated HNS course into two courses composed of operational level and manager level with respective refresh course, on-line cyber course and joint inter-educational institute course in cooperation with other relevant institutes are proposed for the improvement in education courses of KCG and KOEM(Korea Marine Environment Management Corporation) to educate and train professionals for combating HNS spills at sea in Korea.
