An integrated sewer management system was developed for the analysis of sewer flow and for optimal operation of sewer works using ArcView and SWMM. SWMM and ArcView were dynamically linked together using Avenue in order to construct user-friendly management system. The developed system was applied to a residential area in Choonchun city to verify its utilities. All the relevant field data were analyzed on the basis of developed system, and the modeling of sewer flow was implemented using MET, RUNOFF, TRANSPORT in SWMM. As this system can provide comprehensive prediction of flow and pollution profiles, it could serve as a tool not only for optimal management, but also for decision support system to examine the efficiency of planning and implementation of sewer projects.

Mean annual soil loss was calculated and critical soil erosion areas were identified for the Congaree River Basin in South Carolina, USA using the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) model. In the RUSLE model, the mean annual soil loss (A) can be calculated by multiplying rainfall-runoff erosivity (R), soil erodibility (K), slope length and steepness (LS), crop-management (C), and support practice (P) factors. The critical soil erosion areas can be identified as the areas with soil loss amounts (A) greater than the soil loss tolerance (T) factor More than 10% of the total area was identified as a critical soil erosion area. Among seven subwatersheds within the Congaree River Basin, the urban areas of the Congaree Creek and the Gills Creek subwatersheds as well as the agricultural area of the Cedar Creek subwatershed appeared to be exposed to the risk of severe soil loss. As a prototype model for examining future effect of human and/or nature-induced changes on soil erosion, the RUSLE model customized for the area was embedded into ESRI ArcGIS ArcMap 9.0 using Visual Basic for Applications. Using the embedded model, users can modify C, LS, and P-factor values for each subwatershed by changing conditions such as land cover, canopy type, ground cover type, slope, type of agriculture, and agricultural practice types. The result mean annual soil loss and critical soil erosion areas can be compared to the ones with existing conditions and used for further soil loss management for the area.

Techniques for rock slope management and assessment must be developed for the prevention and mitigation of rock fall hazards. To enable this, the rock discontinuity such as fault and joint data must be surveyed, analysed and managed. For this, the discontinuities were detected by automatic and semi-automatic method using DEM and ortho-rectified image of rock slope and the rock slope analysis and management system was developed using GIS. Using the system, slope locations and discontinuities data were constructed to spatial database. The system is consist of ‘Data Management’, ‘Rock Slope DB’, ‘Basic Information’, ‘Image Processing’, ‘Image Analys ing’, ‘Edit’, ‘View’, ‘Theme’, ‘Graphic’, ‘Window’ and ‘Help’. The system was developed using avenue of ArcView 3.2.

교통정책과 계획수립에 가장 중요한 의사결정 과정은 통행수요 분석이고, 이에 활용되고 있는 필수적인 기초 데이터베이스는 분석용 네트워크와 기종점 통행량이 있다. 통행수요 추정과정의 합리성이 보장되도록 하기 위해서는 이러한 기본 입력 자료의 신뢰성은 중요하다. 하지만, 일반적으로 분석용 네트워크를 구축할 때 예산과 분석기간의 제약 때문에 실세계의 교통망 중 많은 부분을 단순화 시켜서 구축한다. 또한 기 구축된 네트워크에 대해서도 변경되는 교통망을 반영하기 위해 네트워크를 수정, 편집할 때에도 많은 재원과 시간이 소요된다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 문제점을 보완하고자 교통분석 목적의 패키지(EMME/2, TranPlan) 혹은 범용의 GIS 패키지(ArcGIS)에서 직접 이용할 수 있도록 기 구축된 네트워크를 기반으로 GIS 데이터로의 변환 혹은 네트워크를 추출하는 양방향 데이터 교환 시스템을 개발하였다. 이러한 GIS-T 통합 시스템은 네트워크의 편집과 분석에 효율적인 환경을 제공하여 보다 현실적인 교통망 모델링을 반영할 것으로 기대되며 다양한 교통문제에 대한 분석에 효과적인 도구로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

Esophageal cancer is a mjaor health problems in many parts of the world. A geographical information system (GIS) allows investigation of the geographical distribution of diseases. The purpose of the present study was to explore the relationship between esophageal cancer and effective climatic factors using GIS. The dispersion distribution and the relationship between environmental factors effective on cancer were measured using Arc GIS. The highest degree of spread was in Germi town and the least was in Ardabil city. There was a significant relationship between effective environmental factors and esophageal cancer in Ardabil province. The results indicated that environmental factors probably are influential in determining the incidence of esophageal cancer. Also, these results can be considered as a window to future comprehensive research on esophageal cancer and related risk factors.

The purpose of this study is to develop rail rockfall and landslide information system to manage spatial database using GIS. For this, a spatial database containing information such as railroad, map, topographic analysis, meteorological data, and rockfall has been constructed for 2.5 km or 5 km buffer zone from the Kyungchun, Youngdong, Jungang, Taebak and Jungsun Rairoad where risk of landslide occurrence potential is high. For management of the spatial database, railroad rockfall and landslide information system has been developed. The information system consists of view, table, chart, layout and project environment. The functions provided in the system are data conversion, editing, labeling, zoom in and out, map making, graphic editing, text DB management, charting, on-line help as well as input, retrieve and output of spatial database. The system was developed using ArcView script language Avenue, and consisted of pull-down menus and icons for easy use. The spatial database and the information system can be used to rockfall and landslide management and analysis near the railroad as basic data and tool.

GIS technique was applied to identify the geotechnical characte¬ristic of subsurface in a study area, and has produced a Geotechnical Esti¬mat ion Index(GEI) map. Groundwater level, soi I depth & weathered zone, and engineering properties of soils & rocks, were incorporated in the map through GIS. EGIS(Environmental Geologic Information System), developed by ARC/INFO GIS system, was used for this work. Environmental geologic database by EGIS was verified to be effective in analysis of engineering geological properties of the subsurface. Quantitative analysis of environmental and geotechnical information enable to develop a scoring system of GEI model, which was developed through evaluation of each goelogical factor with respect to the other factors.

Response of buildings under seismic load is different according to fundamental period. It is provided in Korean Building Code(KBC2009) seismic response coefficient by fundamental period for seismic design of buildings. Recently, many researchers have studied on fundamental period and seismic response coefficient. However, studies on seismic design using Geographic Information System(GIS) are not sufficient. Therefore, this paper has analyzed on seismic response coefficient of buildings using ArcGIS. This paper can be evaluated efficiently for seismic analysis of structures. And this study will be used as basics of a reasonable seismic design using Geographic Information Systems(GIS).

Periodic assessment of reservoir capacity is essential for better water resources management and planning for the future water use. Reservoirs and water storage structures raised on the rivers are subjected to sedimentation and he sedimentation is caused by deposition of eroded sediment particles carried by the streams. Knowledge of reservoir sedimentation is important to estimate avaliable storage capacity for optimum reservoir operation and scheduling water release. In recent years, remote sensing and GIS techniques have emerged as an important tool in carrying out reservoir capacity analysis and water management. The reduction in storage capacity as compared to the original capacity at the time of reservoir impounding is indicative of sediment deposition. In this study, the application of GIS and remote sensing techniques were applied to assess the sediment deposition, losses in the reservoir storage and the revised cumulative capacity. Satellite images covering Pyodongdong reservoir were analyzed using Erdas Imagine and ArcGIS softwares.Cumulative capacities at different levels were also calculated and we estimated that the revised live storage was 84.2Mft3 in 2021 and 64.3Mft3 in 2022 while the original capacity was 22.8 and 53.6Mft3 in 2021 and 2022.

A GIS is capable of extracting various hydrological factors from DEM(digital elevation model). One of important tasks for hydrological analysis is the division of watershed. It can be an essential factor among various geometric characteristics of watershed. In this study, watershed itself and other geometric factors of watershed are extracted from DEM by using GIS technique. The manual process of tasks to obtain geometric characteristics of watershed is automated by using the functions of ARC/INFO software as GIS package. Scanned data was used for this study and it is converted to DEM data. Various forms of representation of spatial data are handled in main module and GRID module of ARC/INFO. GRID module is used on a stream in order to define watershed boundary, so it would be possible to obtain the watersheds. Also, a flow direction, stream networks and orders are generated. The results show that GIS can aid watershed management and research and surveillance. Also the geometric characteristics parameters of watershed can be quantified with ease using GIS technique and the hardsome process can be automated.
