  • This study was conducted to develop a Web-GIS based monitoring module of smart city that can effectively respond, manage and improve situation in all stages of illegal dumping management on a city scale. First, five technologies were set for the core technical elements of the module configuration. Five core technical elements are as follows; video screening technology based on motion vector analysis, human behavior detection based on intelligent video analytics technology, mobile app for receiving civil complaints about illegal dumping, illegal dumping risk model and street cleanliness map, Web-GIS based situation monitoring technology. The development contents and results for each set of core technical elements were evaluated. Finally, a Web-GIS based 'illegal dumping monitoring module' was proposed. It is possible to collect and analyze city data at the local government level through operating the proposed module. Based on this, it is able to effectively detect illegal dumpers at relatively low cost and identify the tendency of illegal dumping by systematically managing habitual occurrence areas. In the future, it is expected to be developed in the form of an add-on module of the smart city integration platform operated by local governments to ensure interoperability and scalability.

  • The variable message sign(VMS) is a facility to smoothen traffic flows and enable safe passing by providing real-time necessary information on roads, weather, transportation, and traffic regulations. The VMS also solves a feeling of uneasiness and gives a sense of psychological security by providing information to drivers. However, the VMS has a strong character of being a non-market product but a public product, so it has not normally been evaluated for its value. This research has evaluated a value of satisfaction level for traffic information users, using a contingent valuation method(CVM). As a result of evaluating the value of satisfaction level for users through division into an urban roadway and an urban highway for the cities where an intelligent transportation system(ITS) has been established, the urban highway had a value of 96.7 won/system and the urban roadway had a value of 76.3 won/system.

  • IoT(Internet of Things) is applied to technologies such as agriculture and dairy farming, making it possible to cultivate crops easily and easily in cities.In particular, IoT technology that intelligently judge and control the growth environment of cultivated crops in the agricultural field is being developed. In this paper, we propose a method of predicting the growth environment of plants by learning the moisture supply cycle of plants using the intelligent object internet. The proposed system finds the moisture level of the soil moisture by mapping learning and finds the rules that require moisture supply based on the measured moisture level. Based on these rules, we predicted the moisture supply cycle and output it using media, so that it is convenient for users to use. In addition, in order to reduce the error of the value measured by the sensor, the information of each plant is exchanged with each other, so that the accuracy of the prediction is improved while compensating the value when there is an error. In order to evaluate the performance of the growth environment prediction system, the experiment was conducted in summer and winter and it was verified that the accuracy was high.

  • Smart cities collect data from thousands of IoT-based sensor devices for intelligent application-based services. Centralized cloud servers support application tasks with higher computation resources but introduce network latency. Fog layer-based data centers bring data processing at the edge, but fewer available computation resources and poor task allocation strategy prevent real-time data analysis. In this paper, tasks generated from devices are distributed as high resource and low resource intensity tasks. The novelty of this research lies in deploying a virtual node assigned to each cluster of IoT sensor machines serving a joint application. The node allocates tasks based on the task intensity to either cloud-computing or fog computing resources. The proposed Task Allocation Strategy provides seamless allocation of jobs based on process requirements.

  • This study examined correlations between U-Service for U-City and assessment indicators for urban competitiveness. The results of this study show that U-Service is used as a means of strengthening urban competitiveness in six types of cities, despite the differences in degree of contribution. The proper use of U-Service in Safety & Health City and Vitality (Economy) City has significantly contributed to strengthening the competitiveness of such cities. Of the assessment items for urban competitiveness, common items and Culture City type show that U-Service has not contributed much to strengthening urban competitiveness. The analysis shows that because common items are part of the assessment items for urban policies, these items are not suitable to the character of a U-City that implements U-Service through intelligent physical facilities. On the other hand, U-Service related to the Culture City type is relatively less developed. This study found out that U-Service could be used to reinforce urban competitiveness.

  • In many metropolitan cities around the world, ground and underground transportation networks are saturated due to urbanization. In addition, regulations on carbon emissions to prevent global warming are becoming stricter, and eVTOL, which will be operating in complex cities, is gaining popularity as the next generation of eco-friendly transportation. In this study, the hover lift efficiency and disc loading of eVTOLs for each type were calculated by classifying eVTOLs into following types: multicopter, lift+cruise, and vectored thrust. In addition, using the aerodynamic analysis programs OpenVSP, Fluent and Javaprop, the specific battery energy required for the smooth operation of eVTOL, which will be realized in the near future, was calculated and analyzed base on reports published by Uber and airworthiness authorities of each country.
