It is a well-known fact that groundwater is difficult to be recovered, once it is polluted. Since its damage may continue for a long time, its management is very much necessary. For groundwater pollution managemet, current groundwater quality should be analyzed and its diffusion should be estimated. Such analysis and estimation are greatly enhanced by a GIS. In order to build the GIS, groundwater information management system, various database related to groundwater should be constructed. The system can be utilized to analyze groundwater quality and to help administrative processes of groundwater management. In this study, we analyze No3N diffusion in the groundwater under the study area, a part of Jung-Gu area, by using groundwater analysis subsystem and create the 1/5,000 scale map for the diffusion prediction of groundwater pollution. Although Seoul Metropolitan Government has constructed the 1/25,000 scale hydrogeology map of Seoul area through basic groundwater survey in 1996, the survey data are not sufficient for local groundwater pollution management. The large scaled map constructed in this study is expected to be utilized for the management. The GIS softwares, Arc/Info and Arc/View, are used. MODFLOW and MT3D programs are extensively used to analyze groundwater pollution.

Many cartographers have for many years searched for a way to construct cartograms in which the sizes of geographic areas such as states, counties or census tracts are reseated in proportion to their population or some other socio-economic properties. While many techniques and algorithms for creating cartograms have been proposed, some of them are still extremely complex to generate in a proper manner, and many of them suffer either from this lack of readability or from seamless integration with GIS software. This paper, therefore, presents a simple population cartogam technique based on the Circular Cartogram Algorithm(CCA) by Dorling(1996) to tackle these drawbacks by drawing the areas as simple circles for use as a base map and linking the construction with GIS mapping processes. For an automated approach in the cartogram generation, this paper proposes a close coupling method of ArcView GIS 3.3. package in order for users to access to the cartopam algorithm. Then, they will be available through an interface that the ArcView GIS system allows user-written routines to be accessed easily. The CCA and its coupling architecture ensure to improve the potential applicability of the use of cartograms to census mapping at practical levels. As the cartogram examples, cartograms of population and property types in 2005 Korea census data sets are illustrated in the end, by which viewers can easily identify the residential concentration and their relative ratio in Seoul metropolitan area.

In GIS-based network analysis, topological measure of network structure can be considered as one of important factors in the urban transportation analysis. Related to this measure, it is known that the connectivity indices such as alpha index and gamma index, which mean degree of network connectivity and complexity on a graph or a circuit, provide fundamental information. On the other hand, shimbel index is one of GIS-based spatial metrics to characterize degree of network concentration. However, the approach using these quantitative indices has not been widely used in practical level yet. In this study, an application program, in complied as extension, running on ArcView- GIS is implemented and demonstrated case examples using basic layers such as road centerline and administrative boundary. In this approach, geo-spatial imagery can be effectively used to actual applications to determine the analysis zone, which is composed of networks to extract these indices. As the results of the implementation and the case examples, it is notified that alpha and gamma indices as well as shimbel index can be used as referential data or auxiliary information for urban planning and transportation planning.

Despite geospatial information systems are widely used in many different fields as a powerful tool for spatial analysis and decision-making, their capabilities to handle realistic 3-D urban environment are very limited. The objective of this work is to integrate the recent developments in 3-D modeling and visualization into GIS to enhance its 3-D capabilities. To achieve a photorealistic view, building models are collected from a pair of aerial stereo images. Roof and wall textures are respectively obtained from ortho-rectified aerial image and ground photography. This study is implemented by using ArcGIS as the work platform and ArcObjects and Visual Basic as development tools. Presented in this paper are 3-D geometric modeling and its data structure, texture creation and its association with the geometric model. As the results, photorealistic views of Purdue University campus are created and rendered with ArcScene.

GIS 기반의 HEC-HMS를 이용하여 유량자료가 있는 소하천인 정자천 유역을 대상으로 장기 강우 유출 분석을 하였다. 일반적으로 홍수량 산정은 단기해석으로 분석하나 평 갈수기와 홍수기 때의 하천 유황이 다르기 때문에 매개변수가 불일치할 것이라 생각되고, 이에 대한 보정이 필요한지 판단이 필요하다. 이를 위해 장기 연속모의를 통하여 매개변수의 보정 필요성을 검토하였다. 연구는 수치지도를 조합하여 ARC-VIEW로부터 Map파일 및 Basin파일을 생성하였고, 토지이용도와 토양도를 ARC-VIEW를 이용하여 CN value를 추출하였다. 계산조건중 손실량 산정방법은 SCS Curve Number법으로 하였고, 단위도 방법은 Clark UH법, 하도추적방법은 Muskingum방법, 기저유량산정방법은 Constant monthly로 설정하였다. 유역면적, 도달시간자료, 저류상수 값 등의 추출은 GIS기법을 이용하여 추출하였다. HEC-HMS의 장기 연속모의(Continuous Simulation)로 얻어진 Element Graph를 보면 대략적인 형태가 일치하나 2006년도에 대한 모의에서는 홍수기의 결과만 일치하는 것으로 보이고, 2007년도에 대한 모의에서는 평 갈수기와 홍수기의 그래프 형태가 유사하게 나타났다. 실측 유량보다 유량 값이 약간 크게 산출되어 홍수량 산정에서 볼 때 안정성에 무리가 없다고 판단되지만, 평 갈수기 기간에서 볼 때 연마다 하천의 매개변수가 일치하지 않는다고 생각되며, 홍수 후 유역의 변화로 매개변수가 변화한 것이라 생각된다. 향후 정자천유역의 보다 많은 강우사상과 실측유량을 통해 HEC-HMS의 유출량을 비교 분석하면 보다 더 정확한 해석이 가능할 것이며, 홍수가 빈번한 지역의 경우 유수지의 검토와 저수지의 시간당 방류량을 알 수 있다면 오차의 범위를 줄일 수 있다고 생각된다. 더 나아가 우리나라에 적합한 매개변수와 GIS 프로그램이 개발된다면 보다 쉽고 정확한 해석이 가능할 것이라고 생각된다.

Present condition of the Youngsan River pollution is serious. Concentrations of organic materials and nutrients are high and algal bloom takes place frequently. The pollution is mainly caused by domestic wastewater input from urban areas like Kwangju and Naju City. In this study, 6 times of water quality surveys were done for mainstream and tributaries. Delivery ratios of each tributaries are calculated with the water quality and flow data. With Arc/View GIS, sub-basin are divided and pollution loads are estimated. These data are used for water quality modeling. River quality improvement effects are analysed with 5 scenarios including process upgrade of present WWTPs and construction of new WWTPs. These scenarios are applied for the Youngsan River based on the 7Q10 and Q275. And total wastewater treatment cost in the basin is analysed for each scenario.

This study is for the inundation damage analysis caused by levee break, and for the applicability of GIS tool to make inundation map in the Jungrang stream basin which is one of the representative urbanized area in Korea. The FLDWAV was applied to the actual flood in 1998 to calibrate the parameters, and was used under the flood conditions of 100, 200 years and PMF for the analysis of inundation caused by the levee breach. As the conditions of the levee break, the duration of break(10, 30, 60 min), the width of break(10, 20, 30m) and the location of the break are considered. We found out that the range and the volume of the inundation are strongly influenced by the location of the levee break, the break width in order. And, we compared the two processes of making the inundation map using WMS and ArcView model. The Process 1 which use only WMS has the benefit by its simplicity but there could be considerable errors in making the inundation map, while Process 2 where the ArcView model is introduced to WMS has the capability of making detailed topography map but needs more process time. This study could contribute to levee breach flood analysis and making flood map to establish the EAP(Emergency Action Plan) in the urban basin.
