This paper proposes a link model that can provide the spacial position along the surface of the earth as an information or data using ePosition ID through the Internet. Moreover, to support the information service of maritime position, it needs the ENC linked technique based on S-57 that is an IHO transfer standard for digital hydrographic data. Therefore, it designs the linked model for applying and utilizing the ePosition technology with ENC data, as well as supplementing the base technology in applying them to marine related fields. As a study method, this paper first analyses ENC data model and structure, and converses for processing of ENC file to ePosition data. Finally, it derives the interconnection method with ePosition database and shows the ePosition service application based on the linked ENC data and its validity.

With recent technological advances in the shipbuilding industry, vessels have been improved in size and performance. As a result, an accident such as grounding, caused by a single ship-to-ship collision, could lead to a large-scale maritime disaster. Considering the seriousness of the situation, the international community has been consistently updating the standards for Electronic Navigational Chart(ENC) to improve the maritime safety. S-57, the existing ENC standard governed by the International Hydrographic Organization(IHO), includes standards for generating conventional binary-type ENC data sets. The S-57 standard, however, has not been updated since the release of Version 3.1 in December 2000. Since then, the standard has failed to reflect technological development regarding maritime spacial information, which has been consistently improving. In an effort to address this concern, the IHO designated S-100, i.e., the next-generation ENC production standard. S-100 differs from S-57 in data exchange type. Contrary to the conventional ENC standards, which use binary-type data, S-10X, based on the next-generation ENC standards, uses ENC data composed of Feature Catalogue, Portrayal Catalogue, and GML. Considering this fact, it is necessary to update S-58, the ENC validation check standard, or designate a new standard for ENC validation checks. This study is developed own software to implement validation checks for new types of data, and identified improvement points based on the test results.

Currently, ECDIS and GPS plotters are much used as equipment providing operators with route information, but they do not have any function of automatic route creation and route explanation, so available for only experienced operators. Especially, the present situation is that no study is made of the automatic route creation and route explanation using ENC for ECDIS, substitution system of paper chart. ENC is the electronic navigation chart that is produced using S-52, 5-57 standard format required by IHO. In this paper, an Navigation Guiding System(NGS) is proposed to generate an optimal route where ENC and GPS data is fusioned including the wind direction and speed of an anemometer. The proposed system was testified by a simulation, and its effectiveness was verified.

The ENC standard, S-57 Specification was established to exchange hydrographic data between it's users such as HOs ECDIS users, etc. The digital navigation chart which is produced according to the S-57 Specification is called an ENC(Electronic Navigational Chart) and the SENC(System ENC) is a by-product of ENC suitable for computer graphics system Even though the efficient structure of SENC is a key element of measuring ECDIS performance, the amount of papers about these topics are small compared with other research fields. In this paper, the author designed an efficient spatial data structure of SENC, called Mesh This paper also includes the implementation result of the 'Mesh' which displays SENC on computer screen.

On the advent of digital era, ECDIS has emerged as a new navigation aid that should result in significant benefits to safe navigation. More than simply a graphics display, ECDIS is a new concept navigation system capable of providing integrated information of geographical and texual data. As an official vector data for ECDIS, ENC consists of spatial and feature data to describe objects in form of points, lines and areas. IHO published International Standards for ENC, such as S-52(Specification for Chart Content and Display Aspects of ECDIS) and S-57(IHO Transfer Standard for Digital Hydrographic Data). This paper deals with the implementation of an ENC representation system which meets S-52 presentation specification and S-57 transfer standards by analyzing S-57 data structures and converting them to an appropriate internal data structures and representing them onto screen adopting S-52 presentation specification.

ePosition is a technology that can provide the spacial position of the earth to the information of ePosition ID through the Internet. It is serving the information of land location based on the Internet using the ePosition technology now, but it needs the service technique which can supply the marine data and the information of maritime position. Moreover, to support the information service of marine position, it needs the ENC linked technique based on S-57 that is an IHO transfer standard for digital hydrographic data. In this paper, therefore, it develops a linkage method for applying and utilizing the ePosition technology to ENC data, and supplements the base technology for applying it to marine related fields. As study method, firstly, this paper analyses ENC data model and structure, and converses for processing ENC file to ePosition data. Lastly, it derives the interconnection method with ePosition database and shows the ePosition service application based on the linked data and its validity.

Abstract KOMAC(Korea Multi-Purpose Accelerator Complex, KAERI) has been operating a 100 MeV proton accelerator and is going to produce ⁶⁸Ga isotope which is useful for diagnosis of cancer. So, it is necessary to develop a transport container for radio-activated targets. In this study, we carry out shielding analysis and structural analysis for the radio-activated target transport container using simulation programs. According to the Type A standard, the transport container includes an inner container and an overpack container. The main material of inner container is lead, and the shape is cylindrical with diameter of 152mm, height of 142mm and weight about 29 kg. It is planned to verify the possibility of field application through production of the transport container prototype in the future.

Recently, there has been much interest in the e-Navigation that applies a variety of digital devices to shipboard thanks to the high interest to maritime safety and the rapid development of ICT technologies. The e-Navigation proposes a new ICT paradigm in maritime information service and maritime safety. This study proposes the shore-based maritime information service platform that enables the converged services of various kinds of maritime data and the standard ENC based on IHO S-100. The proposed maritime information service platform enables the harmonized integration, presentation and web services of ENC, sensed data such as AIS, ocean weather and currents, and geospatial data. Also, the platform enables the mobile maritime information service through WebApp or App software operating in mobile devices of smart phone or web pad. Finally, the proposed platform accommodates the standard ENC of the existing S-57 and the new S-101, and the standard web services of WMS and WMTS of ISO 19100 and OGC.
