Using the case of Taegu city, this study analyses benefits and costs related to the construction of GIS to local government. For this purpose, the study uses a case study selecting Taegu Metropolitan city. In this study, four discount rates(5%, 8%, 10%, 12%) are used for sensitivity analyses. According to this benefit-cost analysis, Taegu city government could get positive net present benefits from the year of 2004 which is 6 years after its GIS construction. This a result, Provides the economical and financial validity of GIS Construition in local government. In this study, analysis of invisible benefits are excluded. If these invisible and potential benefits are included in the analysis, GIS could produce more net benefits and the even break point of GIS construction in local governments will come earlier. For the further study, the study needs to develop new benefits and utilize cost-effectiveness analysis to catch these invisible benefits.

도시화로 인한 홍수 피해 및 비점오염원 저감 방안의 해법으로 정부부처 및 지자체에서는 LID 시설의 설치를 권장하고 있다. 국토부 산하 GI&LID연구단 및 관계 부처의 노력으로 국내 LID 기술의 도입 및 연구 개발이 활발히 이루어지고 있으며 우리나라 환경에 맞는 LID 시공 기술력을 확보하는 중이다. 하지만 비점오염 및 홍수 저감의 대안으로서 LID 기술은 각광받고 있으나 LID설치 비용의 과대 인식과 실효성에 대한 불안감이 만연하여 시설 설치에 어려움을 겪고 있다. 본 연구에서는 도심지내 LID 기술을 적극적으로 도입하여 단지 조성중에 있는 송산그린시티 친환경시범마을을 대상으로 시설 설치 비용에 따른 비용 편익을 분석하였다. 시설 설치전 불투수면적에서의 물순환 관리능력과 설치 후 투수 및 저류 능력의 확대에 따른 물순환 관리능력을 비교하였고, 일정 수치 이상의 물순환 관리능력을 갖기 위해서 시설 설치에 필요한 비용을 분석하였다. 금번 연구에서 분석한 모델링 결과는 추후 준공될 친환경시범마을의 실제 관측치와 비교하여 연구 실효성에 대한 분석을 수행할 예정이다. 본 연구를 통해 LID 시설 설치시 비용-편익을 분석하고 이점을 제시하여 추후 있을 LID 시공 및 관련 연구에 도움이 되고자 한다.

As a green construction is a world-wide hot issue, Korean government is also putting forth a multilateral effort into reducing energy usage with setting aggressive goal under green growth policy. It is essential to analyse cost raised from designing and building green construction and benefit derived from the built facility for the sustainable green construction. However, compared to advanced countries in terms of green construction, there is lack of data and a systematic way for data collection and analysis in Korea. Without analyzing the cost-benefit of green construction, investors will hesitate to put his/her money into green construction and we can not expect its growth in construction industry. In this paper, cost of green construction was defined and categorized. Through case studies and various reports on cost-benefit analysis in advanced green construction countries, problems in terms of data collection and analysis in domestic green construction sector and improvement ways were suggested. The results of this study will contribute in classification of cost and benefit of green construction, data collection in systematic way, and increasing the feasibility of green construction via appropriate analysis on cost-benefit of green construction.

The concept of HSA (Home Service Aggregator) is derived from performing the energy IT business efficiently as well as successfully launcing a new service based on BPL (Broadband over Power Line). The HSA business using a BPL can extend the field of energy industry and an give a chance to create a new demand by consumer-oriented services. This study focuses on the exact evaluation of HSA business using BPL, and reasonable trusty evaluation should be the first step to launch the HSA business. In this study, the categories of cost are comprised of equipment (mainly RSM and MGW) cost, instalation cost, and maintenance cost. AMR (Automatic Meter Reading), internet integration billing service, integration charging service, internet service, sorority service, and electricity safety are listed for benefit. In this study, the ROI of HSA business is 0.9594, which is less than 1. However, that value does not consider the electricity safety benefit which is classified as a social benefit. Therefore, the value can be above 1 if it includes social and private benefits.

Environmental Impact is getting more attention in many feasibility studies for railroad-related projects and research items. For sustainable growth and green transportation, the benefits typically used for feasibility studies in railway-related projects, are composed mostly of economic criterions which is not considering growing attention on changing paradigm. Based on the analysis of current methodologies, improvements in estimating environmental impact especially on noise and pollution are suggested.

This study estimated indirect economic benefits of the introduction of Korean Spatial Information System. Korean academic society has been reluctant to consider indirect benefits as an item of benefits in cost-benefit analysis. Nevertheless, other countries including England recommend to consider some indirect benefits like option value as an important item of cost-benefit analysis, especially in the case of transportation projects. This study estimated indirect benefits of the introduction of Korean Spatial Information System using Contingent Valuation Methods: Indirect benefits of the project are so significant in terms of statistics and substantial in terms of magnitude that decision making can differ from the case without consideration of such indirect benefits.

This study aims to analyze the benefit-cost of the cleaning device for photovoltaic power generation systems in buildings in order to check its economic feasibility. A product, which has similar characteristics to the ultrasound-based cleaning device and is widely used in South Korea, was selected to compare with the benefit-cost value of the ultrasound-based cleaning device in this study. In order to quantitatively and qualitatively analyze benefit and cost aspects of the two products, categories and evaluation factors of each aspect as well as evaluation criteria were identified. Based on the identified evaluation factors and criteria, this study conducted face-to-face interviews with 15 experts to measure weights of benefit and cost aspects of the products. As the results, the total benefit weight of the ultrasound-based cleaning device was larger than its total cost weight since the benefit-cost value was greater than 1, which was 1.6 times of that of to compared product. Therefore, from the economic perspective, it is worth to develop the cleaning device for photovoltaic power generation systems applying ultrasound technology.

This study proposed a method to analyze the economic benefit of the national map revision program using the replacement cost method. The replacement cost method measures the benefit of a project as the minimum cost to replace functions of the project with those of alternative goods or services in an existing market. Thus, the demands on 1/5,000 topographic map revision in 18 administrative tasks such as city and district management planning were surveyed in three local autonomous entities. Then the cost to alternatively fulfill the demands was estimated with the standard construction estimating system for the field surveying and surveying results in commercial GIS companies for the site investigation. With this cost estimation model, the benefit of the current national map revision program to the local autonomous entities was estimated as 265,960,999 won. And cost benefit ratios according to several revision frequencies from 0.5 to 4 year were also compared to find the optimal frequency.

하천을 횡단하는 교량은 하천의 배수위를 증가시키는 중요한 요인으로 작용한다. 더욱이 산지 하천에 시공된 교량은 유송잡물에 의한 폐색으로 인하여 교량 직상류부에 홍수피해를 가중하는 역할을 하기도 한다. 본 연구에서는 교량 재가설에 따른 경제적 타당성을 검토하고자 교각에 집적되는 유송잡물에 의한 배수위만이 홍수범람을 일으키는 원인으로 가정하여 제방고 이상의 홍수용량이 범람한 상황을 고려하였다. 이러한 홍수량이 유역내에서 어느 정도의 피해를 입히는지에 대하여 다차원 홍수피해 산정방법에 의거 교각의 개수를 줄임으로써 저감할 수 있는 침수피해액을 산정하였다. 그리고 교량의 재가설을 위한 개략공사비를 비용으로 보고, 재가설에 따라 저감할 수 있는 침수피해액을 편익으로 산정하여 비용-편익 분석을 실시한 결과 합리적으로 교량의 경간장을 확보하는 방안을 마련할 수 있었다.
