  • On the basis of vegetation data in the 9.12 ha (380 m ${\times}$ 240 m) permanent sample plot of the spruce-fir valley forest in Liangshui National Reserve of Xiaoxing'an Mountains, the study was conducted to evaluate spatial distribution pattern and spatial association by using point pattern analysis for living and dead trees of Larix gmelini by DBH size class. The number of L. gmelini were counted as 59 living stems/ha (6.42 $m^2$/ha of basal area) and 34 dead stems/ha (2.86 $m^2$/ha of basal area). The distributional curve of diameter class exhibited bimodal shape. The analysis of spatial distribution patterns of all living larch stems noted the clumped distribution on the whole. The size of larch aggregates of dead stems was decreased as diameter class was increased. The distribution of dead stems became gradually randomized with decreased clumped size as the scale increased. Living stems and dead stems of the larch had positive spatial association at most of scales, illustrating that the occurrence of mortality of the larch tree was closely related to the distribution pattern of living larch trees.

  • This study was conducted to evaluate spatial distribution pattern and spatial association of crowns (${\geq}10m$ of height) and saplings (<10 m of height and ${\geq}2cm$ of DBH) for four major tree species (Pinus koraiensis, Abies nephrolepis, Acer mono, and Tilia amurensis) in the mixed broadleaved-Korean pine forest of Xiaoxing'an Mts. Vegetation data were collected in the 9 ha permanent sample plot, and the analysis adopted the point pattern analysis method. Main results are as follows; 1) crowns and saplings of major species showed clumped distribution pattern in small scale, became random distribution as the scale was increased. 2) Saplings of Pinus koraiensis performed poor regeneration under the crowns of Pinus koraiensis and Abies nephrolepis; Saplings of Abies nephrolepis did good regeneration under the crowns of Pinus koraiensis and Abies nephrolepis; and crowns of Acer mono and Tilia amurensis had little effect on the distribution of saplings of Pinus koraiensis and Abies nephrolepis. Saplings of Acer mono and Tilia amurensis made good regeneration under the crowns of Pinus koraiensis and Tilia amurensis; and the crowns of Acer mono and Abies nephrolepis had little effect on the distribution of saplings of Acer mono.

  • GIS 분야에서 지도 일반화는 공간자료의 상세도를 결정하여 효과적으로 자료를 가시화(Visualixation)하거나 자료의 해상력을 변화시켜 변환하는 기능을 수행한다. 최근까지 지도 일반화는 선사상 (Line Features)에 집중되었고, 수치지도를 구성하고 있는 정보량과 그 중요성에 비하여 점사상 (Point Features)에 대한 연구는 상대적으로 미미하였다. 이러한 맥락에서 본 연구는 점사상에 대한 구체적인 일반화 방안을 모색하는데 목적을 둔다. 특히 점사상의 일반화에서 원자료의 기하학적 특성을 파악하는데 가장 중요하게 고려한 요소로 점사상의 분포패턴을 선정하였다. 즉 'Grieg-Smith방법'을 활용한 방격분석 (Quadrat Analysis)과 최근린분석 (Nearest-Neighbour Analysis)를 통해 점사상이 갖고 있는 분포패턴의 특성을 찾아낸 다음, 이를 변형시키지 않도록 일반화의 기준거리(Threshold)를 설정하여 점사상을 제거하는 방법을 통해 점사상의 일반화를 시도하였다. 따라서 이 연구에서 제시한 점사상의 일반화 방안은 원래 점사상이 갖고 있는 기하학적 특성을 최대한 유지한다.

  • 우리나라에서 산불 발생 공간분포는 인간 활동과 큰 관련성이 있기 때문에, 지역별 군집형태의 강한 공간의존성을 갖는다. 본 연구에서는 공간의존성의 개념에 입각하여 점자료 분석법을 통한 산불발생의 공간분포패턴을 분석하였다. Ripley의 K 함수를 이용하여 산불 발생 원인별 공간분포 형태를 파악하였으며, Kernel 함수를 통해 산불발생의 공간적 집중도를 분석하였다. 그 결과 정도는 상이하지만 모든 원인의 산불이 임의(random) 분포가 아닌 군집화(clustered)되어 발생하는 특징이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 산불 발생의 군집성을 원인별로 크게 두 집단으로 나눌 수 있었다. 첫째는 전국적 발생 패턴을 가지는 원인으로 입산자 실화, 논밭두렁 소각과 같은 활동과 관련된 것이고 또 다른 하나는 국지적 군집성을 가지는 원인으로 담뱃불이나 어린이 불장난, 방화이다. 그 군집성의 범위는 30 km내외로 나타났으며, 그 범위 밖에서는 임의 분포하고 있었다. Kernel 함수에 의한 원인별 집중도 분석에서는 강한 군집도를 나타냈던 3가지 원인(담뱃불, 어린이 불장난, 방화)의 경우 대부분 인구밀도가 높은 수도권을 중심으로 발생하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

  • Spatial point-patterns analyses were conducted to provide insight into the ecological process behind competition and mortality in two lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta Dougl. ex Loud. var. latifolia Engelm.) stands, one in the Lower Foothills, and the other in the Upper Foothills natural subregions in the boreal forest of Alberta, Canada. Spatial statistical tests were applied to live and dead trees and included Clark-Evans nearest neighbor statistic (R), nearest neighbor distribution function (G(r)), and a variant of Ripley's K function (L(r)). In both lodgepole pine plots, the results indicated that there was significant regularity in the spatial point-pattern of the surviving trees which indicates that competition has been a key driver of mortality and forest dynamics in these plots. Dead trees generally showed a clumping pattern in higher density patches. There were also significant bivariate relationships between live and dead trees, but the relationships differed by natural subregion. In the Lower Foothills plot there was significant attraction between live and dead tees which suggests mainly one-sided competition for light. In contrast, in the Upper Foothills plot, there was significant repulsion between live and dead trees which suggests two-sided competition for soil nutrients and soil moisture.

  • When a spatial regression model that uses kernel density values as a dependent variable is applied to retail business data, a unique model cannot be selected because kernel density values change following kernel bandwidths. To overcome this problem, this paper suggests how to use the point pattern analysis, especially the L-index to select a unique spatial regression model. In this study, kernel density values of retail business are computed by the bandwidth, the distance of the maximum L-index and used as the dependent variable of spatial regression model. To test this procedure, we apply it to meeting room business data in Seoul, Korea. As a result, a spatial error model (SEM) is selected between two popular spatial regression models, a spatial lag model and a spatial error model. Also, a unique SEM based on the real distribution of retail business is selected. We confirm that there is a trade-off between the goodness of fit of the SEM and the real distribution of meeting room business over the bandwidth of maximum L-index.

  • 도시화 지역은 지역발전과 더불어 공간적 범위가 확대되고 있다. 수도권 역시 예외는 아니어서 1960년대 이후 우리나라의 경제개발을 주도하며 도시화 지역의 공간적 범위가 확대일로에 있다. 그러나 도시화 지역의 공간적 분포를 평가함에 있어 그 분포 양상이 집적형태인지 임의적 형태인지 아니면 분산된 형태인지는 정확히 판단하기 어렵다. 즉, 시기가 지남에 따라 도시화 지역이 확대되기는 하지만 정량적으로 그 분포를 판단하기란 쉽지 않다. 본 연구는 GIS의 통계적 분석 기법을 이용하여 도시화 지역의 확대와 성장이 도시화 지역의 분포 패턴에 어떠한 영향을 주었는지를 살펴보고자 하는 것이다. 시계열적 도시성장 과정에서 수도권 내 도시화 지역의 분포패턴을 파악하고자 래스터 기반의 GIS 분석방법, 방격 분석(quadrat analysis), 그리고 최근린 분석(nearest neighbor analysis)을 사용하였다. 실험 결과 수도권의 도시화 지역의 집적정도는 1980년대 초반까지는 증가하다가 그 후로는 약화되는 것으로 분석되었다. 또한 1980년대 중반 이후 수도권 내에서는 외연적 성장이 약화되고 비지적 도시성장 또는 도로망과 연계한 소규모 개발이 증가함을 알 수 있었다.

  • Nowadays, urbanized area expands its boundary, and distribution of urbanized area is gradually transformed into more complicated pattern. In Korea, SMA(Seoul Metropolitan Area) has outstanding urbanized area since 1950s. But it is ambiguous whether urban distribution is clustered or dispersed. This study aims to show the way in which expansion of urbanized area impacts on spatial distribution pattern of urbanized area. We use quadrat analysis, nearest-neighbor analysis and fractal analysis to know distribution pattern of urbanized area in time-series urban growth. The quadrat analysis indicates that distribution pattern of urbanized area is clustered but the cohesion is gradually weakened. And the nearest-neighbor analysis shows that point patterns are changed that urbanized area distribution pattern is progressively changed from clustered pattern into dispersed pattern. The fractal dimension analysis shows that 1972's distribution dimension is 1.428 and 2000's dimension is 1.777. Therefore, as time goes by, the complexity of urbanized area is more increased through the years. As a result, we can show that the cohesion of the urbanized area is weakened and complicated.

  • A stability analysis of a non-linear prey-predator system under the influence of one dimensional diffusion has been investigated to determine the nature of the bifurcation point of the system. The non-linear bifurcation analysis determining the steady state solution beyond the critical point enables us to determine characteristic features of the spatial inhomogeneous pattern arising out of the bifurcation of the state of the system.

  • This paper proposes a way to measure the displacement of a multi-point by using a pattern recognition from video signal. Generally in measuring displacement, gab sensor, which is a displacement sensor, is used. However, it is difficult to measure displacement by using a common sensor in places where it is unsuitable to attach a sensor, such as high-temperature areas or radioactive places. In this kind of places, non-contact methods should be used to measure displacement and in this study, images of CCD camera were used. When multi-point is measure by using a pattern recognition, it is possible to measure displacement with a non-contact method. It is simple to install and multi-point displacement measuring device so that it is advantageous to solve problems of spatial constraints.
