  • In general, a damage that occurs due to landslide or slope failure in urban areas is larger than that in rural areas. In order to reduce the damage, a program is necessary to categorize slopes based on properties and to manage them systematically. Based on the above necessity, a slope management program which is applicable to slope management in an urban area has been developed at Hwangryung mountain in Busan as a target area. The program has a function of systematic slope information constructed by slope ID number of each slope or sub-region of a mountain, making a slope data sheet, analysis and grouping of slope stability, and establishment of a data base. It can also be utilized practically by end users due to the convenient input, edition, printing, management and operation of slope data. For practical utilization of the developed program, a research related to construction of the slope management system for a regional area is demanded to be performed continuously. The supply and utilization of a web based slope management system would contribute to damage reduction.

  • As social demands on forest are diversified, we need some economic and pro-environmental methods of forest management. In this study, developing an FMS(Forest Management System) using GIS techniques, we aimed at making workers handle quickly and exactly their works related to forest, offering customers the exact information and making clients modify or renew the variously changing information about forest. Therefore, we can efficiently handle the works related to forest management. For this, we designed and developed the system to be in accord with working-level and we can handle various information efficiently and conveniently. Accordingly we can process and print out data based on each subject. In addition to that, we can preserve the consistency of data by connecting work zones and providing database through network.

  • This study describes a methodology to develop a environmental and geographical information system for managing a national scale which is supports the environmental fate modeling. This system was developed via the integration of environmental and geographical information database(DB) and the DB usage software. For the sound environmental management, the DB were constructed by extracting the geometrical figures-such as points, polylines, and/or polygons-based on the geographical information previously developed in Korea. Then it was connected with the environmental information. Based on the Visual Basic Complier, the software can be a useful tool for visualizing the DB, for searching the environmental & geographical information, and supporting the environmental fate modeling.

  • Effective cost management requires reliable cost estimates at every stage of project development. The primary purpose of this research is to develop systematic modeling procedures and an automatic computing program for infrastructure estimating in the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT). The computing system toggles between project input information and segregated district unit prices for highway work item quantity estimates associated with earthwork and landscape, subgrade treatments and base, surface courses and pavement, structures, miscellaneous construction, and lighting, signing, markings and signals. This quantity-based approach was chosen because of the conventional approach lacking of quantity information until primary design is complete.

  • The purpose of this study is to indicate the problem and its improvement plan derived from pollution discharge industries inspection, implementation process on overall instruction including record management, and utilization of information about emission. This focuses on analyzing the inspection system of pollution discharge industries and the actual condition of management system with survey and interview from the managers. As a result of examining the administration information system from each of structural and practical perspectives, the users were not able to receive support for inspection through the system because it was designed based on licensing. Also according to results of survey and interview, it was difficult to input checkup data and to maintain the information of emission in a sustainable manner. This problem occurs since the current system is not utilized properly. Thus, this study examines similar systems operated in Korea and suggests measure to make improvements. The measures are considered as constructing simple user interface for systematizing of administrative works, simplifying the input matters, linking systems of inspection and emission information, establishing statistical function of emission information, and managing inspection functions through the mobile system.

  • Environmental Product Life Cycle Management is an activity for defining and describing the product, process of activity environmentally. The activity involves the full life cycle stages of the product; evaluating environmental releases at each stage, determining the aggregate and specific impacts of the releases, developing opportunities to effect environmental improvements. This paper presents a methodological approach for database modeling to build Product Life Cycle Management system and show a set of database modeling. Additionally, a key issue for database is the quality of the provided information.

  • Because the current disaster management task is being processed by using a separated operation system and an insufficient information system by each division, construction facilities suffer great damage by disaster. This research has classified the disaster management business phase and information by each phase through analyzing the existing disaster management information and business process. Then, it has built a disaster management information breakdown structure for integrating of individual disaster information, and also established a standard XML (eXtensible Markup Language) schema of disaster management electronic documents for a real-time utilization. The suggested methods in this research are verified by developing a manual system of electronic type. The disaster management IETM developed in this study provides the consistency for processing the disaster management tasks and the prevention of information omission. And it can be used as a electronic decision making tool for providing of integrated disaster management information.

  • In this study, for the integrated information management of underground pipelines, each information management server software must have it's inter-operability. So Many kinds of smart-city integrated platform softwares were surveyed and the best platform software was selected. The interface software modules developed in this study was installed at the test system. Through this test system, when a sub system transfers an event message to the upper integrated server system, the inter-operability test between the upper system and a sub operating system was performed and its operability was resolved.

  • A number of absurdities surrounding the humidifier disinfectant (HD) incident may have occurred because 1) a judicial system operates on the underlying false assumption that the involved parties are equals in knowledge, information and resource mobilization capabilities, regardless of respective real status as company or individual; 2) there is a lack of a system that mandates a company to prevent and actively manage possible catastrophes; 3) the regulatory scheme makes companies believe that as long as they are complying with the existing regulations, they have satisfied all of their responsibilities. I believe that this issue is an opportunity to bring about changes in the judicial redress system, the system of internal management of manufacturers, and the regulatory system of the government. The following regulation amendments are needed to move towards the changes stated above. First, legislation relating to victim relief that is applicable to the HD incident must be established. Second, a risk management system must be formed within the manufacturing company and to this end an institutional environment for the system must be established within regulatory framework. Furthermore, legislation must be passed that could punish companies themselves that have caused severe damage to individuals because they had failed to take necessary actions to avoid foreseeable harm. Finally, the framework of regulation must be changed so that the company, who has the necessary information regarding the product and the component chemicals used in the product, must self-directed experiment and assessment of the safety of their own products.
