Estimation of future land cover based on climate change scenarios is an important factor in climate change impact assessment and adaptation policy. This study estimated future land cover considering Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSP) using Scenario Generators. Based on the storylines of SSP1-3, future population and estimated urban area were adopted for the transition matrix, which contains land cover change trends of each land cover class. In addition, limits of land cover change and proximity were applied as spatial data. According to the estimated land cover maps from SSP1-3 in 2030, 2050, and 2100, respectively, urban areas near a road were expanded, but agricultural areas and forests were gradually decreased. More drastic urban expansion was seen in SSP3 compared to SSP1 and SSP2. These trends are similar with previous research with regard to storyline, but the spatial results were different. Future land cover can be easily adjusted based on this approach, if econometric forecasts for each land cover class added. However, this requires determination of econometric forecasts for each land cover class.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to report the effectiveness of Korean medicine (Beewha-eum) on the treatment of non-cardiac chest pain (NCCP) in a patient with non-erosive reflux disease (NERD). Methods: The patient was diagnosed with a spleen-stomach weakness pattern identified by Korean medicine and was treated with herbal medicine (Beewha-eum). The severity of symptoms was assessed with a numerical rating scale (NRS) for chest pain, self-reported dyspepsia degree (%), Korean gastrointestinal symptom rating scale (KGSRS), gastrointestinal symptom score (GIS), and Functional Dyspepsia-Quality of Life(FD-QOL) score. Results: After Beewha-eum treatment, the severity of chest pain was decreased from NRS 8 to NRS 0 and the self-reported dyspepsia degree also decreased from 100% to 65%. The KGSRS score was decreased from 49 to 35, the GIS score was also decreased from 16 to 9, and the FD-QOL score was increased from 20 to 25. Conclusions: The study findings suggested that Korean medical treatment with Beewha-eum could be an effective option for treating NCCP in patients with NERD.

During emergencies, the time from symptom onset to definitive treatment determines the final outcome. Therefore, the emergency medical service (EMS) system in Korea, aims to transfer patients requiring emergency care to appropriate medical facilities within 30 minutes. This is in an attempt to improve the chances of survival and reduce sequelae. We attempted to locate areas vulnerable to prehospital transportation and identify hot spots with high demand for emergency medical helicopters in Jeju, by using a grid-based geospatial analysis. This retrospective cross-sectional observational study employed EMS data of 119 ambulance run sheets spanning from January 1, 2010 to September 30, 2018 in Jeju. The location data of emergency patients was superimposed on the spatial analysis frame using the geographic information system (GIS). Subsequently, the locations of long-distance transfer and delayed transfers to the hospital were analyzed, to identify hot spots where the demand for helicopter emergency services would be high. Of the total analysis targets, 42.2% (20,288 people) took more than 30 minutes from reporting to 119 dispatchers to hospital transfer. As the transfer time interval increased, the patient occurrence time increased in the city of Jeju, increased in Seogwipo, and the ratio of patients/guardians to select a transfer hospital rose with significant differences. This study identified the characteristics related to time delays in prehospital transfer of emergency patients in Jeju, and the areas vulnerable to prehospital emergency care were derived and visualized through spatial analysis using the GIS.

Objective: The purpose of this study is to report the clinical improvement of aggravated functional dyspepsia due to COVID-19 with Korean medicine treatment. Methods: To assess treatment outcomes, we used the GIS (Gastrointestinal Symptom Score), European Quality of Life-5 Dimensions (EQ-5D) scale, and Numeral Rating Scale (NRS). Results: After treatment, the patient's clinical symptoms improved, as indicated by GIS, EQ-5D, and NRS scores. Conclusions: Korean medicine treatment improved late complications in COVID-19 patients. This finding suggests the possibility of Korean medicine treatment for long-term COVID infections.

The Broadcasting system is very important part of human life that preceding to people news, national plan, sport, drama, leisure and politics. The product of maded by broadcasting system conveyed the whole country by radio signal. A broadcasting station operate the broadcast product radio trial network in the mountain, Recently the height of new building, concrete structure is very large and higher than old one. Since one does or says, noise accur to radio and TV signal whole nation. In this study, Taejeon Sikjang mountain and Cheunan-Heuksung mountain where accured radio noise chosen as a sample, and analysis 3D simulation and plane check. Accordingly come to conclusion condition of noise occurred radio antenna.

수자원시설물의 유지관리와 조사, 계획, 설계, 제작, 설치, 운전, 보전을 거쳐 폐기에 이르는 시설물의 Life Cycle을 관리하기 위해 IT 기술을 이용하여 설비를 체계적으로 운영 관리하고 있다. 수자원시설의 점검관리에 있어 기존의 관리방법은 점검자가 관리항목을 대장에 기입하고 기입한 자료를 PC에 저장하여 관리함으로써, 업무의 복잡성 및 중복성이 발생됨으로써 업무효율이 저하되고 있는 실정이다. 이에 따라, 본 연구에서는 이러한 문제점을 효율적으로 해결하기 위하여 유비쿼터스 기술인 RFID를 현장에 적용하기 위하여 수자원시설에 대하여 표준코드를 정립하였으며, 수자원시설 이력관리 구축을 위하여 RFID 현장에 적용하고, RFID 리더기를 이용하여 시설물의 이력 관리 시스템과 연동하여 체계적인 시설관리 기반을 구축하였다. 이로써, 시스템을 통해 관리되는 시설물의 이력정보를 활용하여 설비 교체주기, 통계자료 조회, 예산 반영 계획수립 등의 업무에 즉시 적용이 가능하며 체계적이고 효율적인 업무수행이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

Spatially distributed characteristic of longevity regions analysed using GIS tools. Fundamental factors for long life are categorized into natural conditions and artificial conditions. Degree of longevity is defined and used as a key parameter in analyzing longevity region. It is visually shown that aging areas are moving with time and variances of social and economic status. It is concluded that the degree of longevity is increased with improving living quality because of improvement of economic activities and living environment. However, longevity regions of recent times have slightly reversed tendency against urban areas in the manner of moving toward areas where social and economical activities are relatively weaker.

The purpose of this study was to ascertain the ecological state and problems of eco-bridges on Korean roads. The study was conducted from March to April 2007 by checking ecological factors and wildlife around the eco-bridges and habitats. 8 representative eco-bridges were selected by their bridge shape and condition of location. After field survey, we analyzed ideal trails for wildlife using field data, digital topology maps, satellite images, and land use map. In addition to trail analysis, we identified the propriety of the eco-bridges through Population Viability Analysis. Because of unsuitable location and management, we found that most of the bridges are not proper for wildlife dispersal. Moreover, in some habitats, we could expect that some local populations might be extinct without appropriate treatments.

Today, the vehicle is used the mean of transportation as well as the mobile office with the third digital life space. So telematics is an emerging industry that has tremendous future potential. It is necessary the essential contents for telematics services : navigation map for navigation, POI, real-time traffic information etc. In this paper, we proposed the telematics contents server to manage the telematics contents with efficient performance in distributed environment. The telematics contents server transforms and stores the essential contents and provide it to user through standard interface. The telematics contents server is middleware to offer a rapid essential telematics contents management, client connectivity, and communications. It is useful for the telematics service provider to build telematics system under distributed environment.
