Water mains underground facilities are essential components to make up urban infrastructure. In order to manage these water mains underground facilities systematically and scientifically, GIS (Geographic Information System) had been constructed. For the sake of construction of GIS for water mains underground facilities, an exact underground detection and the construction of DB (Data Base) for buried water mains underground facilities should be preceded. In this study, in order to find out the ways to improve exact detection rate of data, the statistical analysis for the causes of detection raw degradation was done, and standardization methods of detection through a case study were suggested, When water mains underground facilities were measured, the detection of non-metallic water pipes was not carried out. The reason was that the results of detection was uncertain and detection was difficult because the assessment of public measurements was vulnerable. Moreover, due to the absence of standardized operating regulations for detection, systematic surveys weren't conducted. In this study, methods to standardize works over the detection of water mains underground facilities were presented so that we can improve the detection rate when we are doing that. As the proposals to improve detection rate, effective performance assessment over non-metallic pipes were presented, and related issues to supplement work regulations of public survey were described systematically.

In order to manage the underground spatial information in systematic and effective way, production of an integration underground spatial information map is essential process. The government has been making efforts to expand manage the production of 3D underground spatial integrated map. In recent the GPR is actively used for exploring underground facilities in non-exploring area and sinkhole. For achieving the research objectives presenting the accuracy of verification standard in underground spatial information surveying using GPR, the related legislation standard, the experiment resutls and international criteria have been analyzed. From this research it is found that the accuracy standard has been made by the related academic society(USA) and association(UK) in foreign counties. It is recommended that indicate the verification standard with number and percent together considering the characteristics of GPR.

Safety accidents are increasing, such as changes in groundwater levels due to construction work or natural influences, or ground cave-ins caused by soil runoff from old water supply and sewage pipes. In addition, underground facility management agencies must make efforts to improve the accuracy of underground information through continuous investigation and exploration in accordance with the Special Act on Enhanced Underground Safety Management. Accordingly, in this study, we defined the configuration of equipment and data processing method to collect 3D precise exploration underground facility information and developed 3D underground facility information collection technology to ensure accuracy of underground facilities. As a result of verifying the developed technology, the horizontal accuracy improved by an average of 6cm compared to the existing method, making it possible to acquire 3D underground facility information within the error range of the public survey work regulations.

GPR (Ground Penetrating Radar), developed as a technology for geotechnical investigations such as sinkhole exploration, was used limitedly as a method to resolve undetectable lines in underground facility exploration. To improve the accuracy of underground facility data, the government made it possible to explore underground facilities using a non-metallic pipeline probe from July 2022. However, GPR has a problem in that the exploration rate is lowered in the soil with high moisture content, such as soft soil, such as clay layer, and there is a lot of variation in long-term accuracy. In this study, as a way to improve the accuracy of exploration considering the characteristics of GPR and the environment of underground facilities, we propose a GPR exploration method for underground facilities using permittivity constant correction and pattern analysis of GPR image data. Through this study, the accuracy of underground facility exploration and high reproducibility were derived as a result of field verification applying GPR frequency band and heterogeneous GPR.

Water, waste, electric and gas facilities are urban based facilities that needed in our life and are often located in underground. Therefore, underground facilities are more difficult to manage efficiently than ground facilities. It is needed to carry out survey/probe into underground facilities and to build database in order to prevent city-misfortunes being occurred because of negligent management and in order to minimize budget-waste and a traffic jam according to repetition of road excavation constructions. Also, the development of application system is required to manage efficiently underground facility. Chonju city has launched underground water supply facility computerizing project as a part of National Geographic Information System project until December 1998 and executed survey/probe into 402.89 km water supply that is 80 mm up inside central town area 39.6 $km^2$. Also, chonju city built database into 537 km water supply that is 80 mm below based on water supply card without other survey/probe works. Also, existing work process each department is changed into GIS applied work process and underground water supply facility management system is developed by its work process basis. Water supply underground facility management system that is developed is composed of sub-system like base-map management, water supply inspect, water supply management and water supply inquiry, construction work management, administration management and map management. This research presents the procedure and method of underground water supply facility survey/probe and problem being occurred during survey/probe procedure and also show the functions of each sub-systems composing underground water supply facility management system.

The complicated facilities on the ground have begun to be laid under the ground as increasing emphasis on the beauty of cities due to centralization. But, as the kind of the facilities have been concentrated on the narrow area, accidents occur due to the difficulty of maintenance and the inaccuracy of location information. In this study, first we constructed the field test model to compare with the method of underground probing. So, we could know that the electromagnetic induction method and GPR(Ground Penetration Radar) are useful. It was acquired the position information for the underground facilities using a RTK-GPS. As the result, we have analyzed the accurate position of the underground facility and show the way improving accuracy in detecting and surveying comparing with the traditional surveying method. Also, we hope to contribute the effective maintenance and prevention of disasters to the underground facility as using underground facilities 3D position with Arcview and building the DB of exact depth and underground facilities information system.

The importance and utilization of underground spatial is increasing due to urban concentration. And so underground spatial information is being built. Because underground spatial information is an important NSDI (National Spatial Data Infrastructure), the accuracy and performance of underground spatial exploration devices used for construction are managed separately. In accordance with the laws and regulations related to spatial information, the government is conducting performance tests for underground facilities surveying equipment. The current performance test site mainly targets metal pipelines, and there is no absolute position surveying inspection system. In this study, test bed model for performance inspection of underground space exploration equipment was presented. The test bed presented in this study can be used as a test site to supplement the limitations of the existing domestic test bed and to verify the performance of the latest equipment.

In modern society, as to the underground urban infrastructure facilities(communication electricity water and sewage gas etc.) were contained many risks because of excavating. The exact position of underground facilities and the attribute information should be built in order to prevent accidents. As the result of analyzing the public surveying results from 2004 to 2009, it shows that low detecting rate of water pipeline which is only 52.4%, because the exploration of electromagnetic induction only detect metal pipeline and positioning survey only detect new pipeline before burying. Therefore development and verification of the correct and efficient exploration techniques are needed to improve the detecting rate. In this study, determined based on the location measurement results for the non-metal pipes and metal pipes before burial. It was compared with values that obtained through the ground penetrating radar and electromagnetic induction detecting. As a result, detecting rate of the concrete section showed a 100%, unpaved section showed a 94.7%, asphalt section showed 60%. So it confirmed the applicability of the ground penetrating radar at underground facilities detecting.
