A pre-existing landform is created by weathering and erosion along the bedrock fault and the weak zone. A neotectonic landform is formed by neotectonic movements such as earthquakes, volcanoes, and Quaternary faults. It is difficult to clearly distinguish the landform in the actual field because the influence of the tectonic activity in the Korean Peninsula is relatively small, and the magnitude of surface processes (e.g., erosion and weathering) is intense. Thus, to better understand the impact of tectonic activity and distinguish between pre-existing landforms and neotectonic landforms, it is necessary to understand the development process of pre-existing landforms depending on the bedrock characteristics. This study used a two-dimensional numerical landscape evolution model (LEM) to study the spatio-temporal development of landscape according to the different erodibility under the same factors of climate and the uplift rate. We used hill-slope indices (i.e., relief, mean elevation, and slope) and channels (i.e., longitudinal profile, normalized channel steepness index, and stream order) to distinguish the difference according to different bedrocks. As a result of the analysis, the terrain with high erosion potential shows low mean elevation, gentle slope, low stream order, and channel steepness index. However, the value of the landscape with low erosion potential differs from that with high erodibility. In addition, a knickpoint came out at the boundary of the bedrock. When researching the actual topography, the location around the border of difference in bedrock has only been considered a pre-existing factor. This study suggested that differences in bedrock and various topographic indices should be comprehensively considered to classify pre-existing and active tectonic topography.

Many studies have successfully developed a number of terrain correction programs in gravity data. Furthermore, terrain data that is a basic data for terrain correction has widely been provided through internet. We have also developed our own precise gravity terrain correction program. The currently existing gravity terrain correction programs have been developed for regional scale gravity survey, thus a more precise gravity terrain correction program needs to be developed to correct terrain effect. This precise gravity terrain program can be applied on small size geologic targets, such as small scale underground resources or underground cavities. The multiquadric equation has been applied to create a mathematical terrain surface from basic terrain data. Users of this terrain correction program can put additional terrain data to make more precise terrain correction. In addition, height differences between terrain and base of gravity meter can be corrected in this program.

This study investigated and analyzed the topographic landscape resources of Mureung Valley in Donghae-si from the viewpoint of geotourism in order to suggest the tourism contents and tour course. A total of 29 topographic landscapes were observed; these are broadly divided into 4 features including weathering landform, mountainous landform, fluvial landform, and structural landform. Major topographies are fluvial landform (13) and weathering landform (12). At least 19 topographies (14 sites, 19 topographic landscapes) are currently used as tourism resources, with 10 topographies having potential to be developed as new tourism resources. The 10 topographic landscapes are as follows: (1) Jamryong Bawi (Hidden Dragon Rock), (2) Janggipan Bawi (Korean Chessboard Rock), (3) Nurungji Bawi (Parched Rice Rock), (4) Damjang Bawi (Fence Rock), (5) Gyedan Bawi (Stairs Rock), (6) Heundeul Bawi (Rocking Rock), (7) Jeopsi Bawi (Dish Rock), (8) Dol Umul (Stone Well), (9) Jogak Bawi (Carved Rock), and (10) Dubu Bawi (Topu Rock). The topographic tour course can be divided into 3 routes considering accessibility and time. Route 1 is a basic one that anyone can easily use; Route 2 and 3 can be used by visitors who have more time to spare or who are more active.

In this paper, a dynamic variable window-based topographical classification method is proposed which has the changeable classification units depending on topographical properties. In the proposed scheme, to im prove the classification efficiency, the unit of topographical classification can be changeable dynamically according to the topographical properties and repeated patterns. Also, in this paper, the classification efficiency and accuracy of the proposed method are analyzed in order to find an optimal maximum decision window-size through the experiment. According to the experiment results, the proposed dynamic variable window-based topographical classification method maintains similar accuracy but remarkably reduce computing time than that of a fixed window-size based one, respectively.

대하천사업으로 4대강에 다기능보 건설 및 대규모 준설이 이루어졌으며, 그 과정을 통해 인위적으로 변화된 하천지형은 시간이 경과함에 따라 유사공급과 유수흐름 등 다양한 요인들의 복합적 영향 하에서 지속적 변화과정을 거치게 된다. 따라서 하천의 효율적인 운영 및 관리를 위해서는 하천지형에 대한 연속적인 측정 및 분석을 통해 하천유로의 지형학적 특성과 그 변화의 양상과 정도를 파악하는 것이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 낙동강 중 하류 구간에 대하여 음향측심기를 이용한 수심측량을 통해 유로의 지형정보를 취득 분석하여 다기능보 건설 후 유로의 지형학적 특성에 있어서의 변화 양상을 파악하고자 하였다. 이를 위하여 취득된 지형자료를 활용하여 유로 단면에 대한 기하학적 특성치들을 통한 형태학적 분석을 실시하였다. 또한 대하천사업 준공시 취득된 측량성과정보와의 비교를 통해 지형변화 양상과 정도를 파악하였다. 이를 통 해 대하천사업 이후 낙동강 중 하류 구간 유로의 지형변화 양상과 규모를 파악할 수 있었으며, 대하천사업 이후 준공측량성과를 기반으로 고시된 하천기본계획 상 지형정보의 정확성에 대해 평가할 수 있었다. 본 연구의 공간적 범위가 낙동강 중 하류 중 일부 구간들에 제한되었기에, 향후 본 연구에서 제안한 방법론을 활용한 지형특성 및 변화의 양상과 규모에 대한 지속적인 평가가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

A terrain is an essential element for constructing a virtual world in which game characters and objects make various interactions with one another. Creating a terrain requires a great deal of time and repetitive editing processes. This paper presents a 3D terrain reconstruction system to create 3D terrain in virtual space based on real terrain data. In this system, it converts the coordinate system of the height maps which are generated from a stereo camera and a laser scanner from global GPS into 3D world using the x and z axis vectors of the global GPS coordinate system. It calculates the movement vectors and the rotation matrices frame by frame. Terrain meshes are dynamically generated and rendered in the virtual areas which are represented in an undirected graph. The rendering meshes are exactly created and updated by correcting terrain data errors. In our experiments, the FPS of the system was regularly checked until the terrain was reconstructed by our system, and the visualization quality of the terrain was reviewed. As a result, our system shows that it has 3 times higher FPS than other terrain management systems with Quadtree for small area, improves 40% than others for large area. The visualization of terrain data maintains the same shape as the contour of real terrain. This system could be used for the terrain system of realtime 3D games to generate terrain on real time, and for the terrain design work of CG Movies.

In this paper the quantitative classification parameters of terrain which can be practicable to the interpolation of digital terrain model forming a regular grid pattern have been suggested and objective terrain classification have been established by making a cluster analysis using these parameters. Also, interpolation suitable to the classification of terrain has been used by making a descriminant alaysis from description parameters of terrains. The terrain classification in this paper was dependent upon two parameters of the ratio horizontal area to inclined area and the magnitude of harmonic vectors. And the studying area was seperated to three groups of terrains by these two parameters. Three groups of terrains could be classified into the discriminant functions. By determining the ratio of area and harmonic vector magnitude in any terrains using the above discriminant function, it was possible to discriminate the terrains to apply the interpolation practicable to the terrain characteristics.

The purpose of this study is to review research trends and issues of coastal geomorphology in general of Korea, which is divided into two periods; the former and later periods of 1990s when The Korean Geomorphological Society was established. In this study, coastal geomorphology in general refers to the landforms except tidal flats and coastal terraces. The descriptive statistics of research papers published in 5 major geography journals since 1990s were computed and these papers were classified according to their main subjects. The methodology for coastal landform study was analyzed by sub-fields of landform change and sediment analysis. The study of coastal geomorphology in Korea started from around 1970s and has progressed significantly in terms of the scope and the number of papers published since 1990s. There is few paper published in 1990s on coastal geomorphology in general, but so many research has achieved and came to be the major part of coastal geomorphology study since 2000s. Further methodology is necessary for morphodynamics study in the future.

선행 연구들을 통해 미세지형이 유역에서의 유사 유출량에 영향을 끼침을 알 수 있다. 그러나 여전히 유사-유출에 대한 미세지형의 영향이 불분명하여 유역 내 토양 침식 과정에서 미세지형적 거칠기를 고려할 때 혼란이 야기될 수 있다. 따라서, 유사유출량과 토양침식량에 대한 보다 정확한 예측 및 산정을 위해 미세지형이 토양 침식에 미치는 영향을 명확하게 하는 것이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 Hairsine-Rose 침식 모형과 동역학파(Dynamic wave) 모형을 사용하여 강우-유출에 따른 미세지형의 유사-유출 과정을 수치적으로 모의하였다. 모의 결과에 따르면, 미세지형은 동일 강우 및 유출 조건에서도 유역 내 유사 유출량을 변화시켰다. 또한, 본 연구의 모의조건 하에서 지반이 비교적 미세토사로 구성된 경우 미세지형이 거칠수록 침식률이 증가하는 반면 지반의 토사가 대부분 굵은 입경을 가질 때는 매끄러운 지형보다 거친 미세지형에서 토양 침식률이 감소함을 확인하였다. 따라서, 지형의 미세지형 변동 정도와 토양침식률 사이에 비례 또는 반비례 관계가 형성됨을 보이고, 이러한 관계를 형성하는 과정에 입경 분포가 미치는 영향을 제시하였다. 마지막으로, 본 연구 결과를 통해 장갑화(armoring) 과정이 입경 분포뿐만 아니라 미세지형의 거칠기에 따라 유역별로 다르게 나타나는 것을 확인하였다. 따라서 유사-유출에 대한 미세지형의 영향을 적절하게 고려하기 위해 부상(Pick-up), 이류 및 퇴적 등 입경 별 퇴적물 이동이 다중 물리적으로 고려되어야 한다는 점을 강조한다. 본 연구를 통해 지표면의 미세지형적 거칠기 및 토양 입경에 대한 정확한 정보가 필요함을 알 수 있으며, 이를 충분히 고려한다면 강우 유출에 의한 토양 침식 메커니즘에 대한 이해도와 토양침식량에 대한 정량적 예측의 정확도가 향상될 것으로 예상된다.
