  • This study aims to determine problems of the damage investigation system of aquaculture products resulting from natural disaster and to deduce improvement plans for such problems. The main problems revealed from this study were as follows: 1) detailed damage investigation is carried out only by one particular organization, 2) for aquaculture insurance subscribers another detailed damage investigation is conducted to reveal the causes of natural disaster by a joint investigator team formed according to a different legislation with a different purpose, 3) damage investigation is usually suffered from lack of labor, budget and time due to the restriction of natural damage to a certain period of season leading to the absence of quick reaction capability for irresistible natural disasters, and 4) there are no specified procedures and protocols for deciphering causes of a natural demage. The improvement plans to find solutions for such problems are as follows: 1) for the investigation, the object, method and role of the investigation organization should be clarified by improving the present legislation, 2) investigation methods for determining the demage causes should be systematized by making a manual to minimize disputes, and 3) supports for the investigation organization should be institutionalized to guarantee sufficient budget and manpower. Under the present circumstance with continuous natural damages, smooth procedures of damage compensation would lead to the management stability of aquaculture farms.

  • Global warming affects climate change and has an overall impact on all aspects of life. On the other hand, community behavior and disaster aspects also have an important role in people's lives. This will also have an impact on regional development. This study aims to find the effect of climate, disaster, and social community on rural development. This study uses data on the potential of rural development from PODES 2014, and 2018 data collection on climate conditions and regional status is sourced from relevant ministries. This research uses Ordinary Least Square (OLS) Regression Analysis method, then continued with CHAID analysis to find the segmentation of the role of climate, disaster, and social factors on rural development. The results of this study found that all research regressor variables significantly influence the Rural Development Index (IPD2018), with an R-squared value of 32.9 percent. Efforts need to be taken in order to implement policies that are targeted, effective, and efficient. The results of this study can be a reference for the government in determining policies by focusing on rural development that have high duration of sunshine, cultivating natural disaster warnings, especially in areas prone to natural disasters, and need to focus on underdeveloped areas.

  • Korean government compensates 100% for natural disaster relief fund to public facilities, and provides 70 percents to crops through unit price calculation. This study estimated disaster damage according to the standard production cost of crops. Disaster damage was estimated according to the unit price of crops. Those crops are lettuce, pumpkin, red pepper, spinach, tomato and cucumber. As a result, the ratio of natural disaster relief fund to damage was revealed as $3.3%{\sim}13.8%$ with present method, 5.7%{$\sim}34.1%$ with suggested method. Suggested method is the first one considered damage ratio of crops, producer price and raising period.

  • Compound coastal disasters are a type of natural disaster featuring both internal and external flooding due to rises in sea-level, torrential rains, typhoons, and tsunamis. The, incidence and scale of damage from such disasters is increasing. This aim of this study was to review the current laws and systems managing the phenomenon of the coastal complex disaster, and to derive recommendations for improvements to manage and prevent them. In this study, the Framework Act on the Management of Disasters and Safety, the Countermeasures against Natural Disasters Act, the National Land Planning and Utilization Act, the Coast Management Act, the River Act, and the Sewerage Act were reviewed, with focus on the district-zoning system designated by ministries for the management of natural disasters along the coast. Through a comparison of the purpose and nature of the laws, spatial scope, and management resources, it was judged that it would be desirable to comprehensively manage compound coastal disasters based on the Countermeasures Against Natural Disasters Act. In order to overcome the limitations of the current system and to derive specific measures to improve laws and systems, a questionnaire survey on detailed factors was conducted targeting experts in natural disaster management. The results indicated that it is necessary to improve the current system or introduce a new system for the management of coastal complex disasters, with integrated management of land and sea areas through the installation and operation of integrated decision-making governance by related ministries such as MOIS, MOLIT, MOF, and ME.

  • The amount of damages caused by natural hazards is consistently growing due to the unusual weather and extreme events. At the same time, property damage by natural hazards is rapidly increasing as well. Hence, we need systematic anti-disaster activities and consulting that can react to such a situation. To address these needs, we investigated and analyzed insured claim payouts from natural hazards by administrative area, and calculate the risk index utilizing GIS. According to the index, this map is identifying the areas of greatest natural hazard risk. The ranking of natural disaster vulnerability based on the risk index, and risk grades were divided into five based on the ranking. This map integrates the natural hazard losses to assist in comprehensive and effective loss prevention activities using analysis of regional loss claims from natural hazards. Moreover, this map can be as utilized as loss mitigation and prevention activities to verify the distribution of exposure and hazards.

  • Recently, disasters have become bigger and more complex, and the economic damage has increased due to the increase of urbanization and the concentration of infrastructure. These large complex disasters occur simultaneously in the second and third disasters due to the first single disaster, but the existing disaster management system in Korea is less adaptable because it is divided into natural disasters and social disasters. The cause of the complex disaster is the rapid urbanization of the residential environment caused by the change of the industrial structure, and the threat factors are various and unpredictable in the living environment. Natural disasters are becoming larger and more complex due to climate change due to global warming. Unlike the past, natural disasters are likely to develop into multiple disasters such as urban paralysis. Therefore, this paper considers natural disasters and social disasters in a comprehensive concept in order to overcome limitations of disaster management by existing single factors and manage disasters effectively and rationally. It is expected that it will play a big role in protecting the lives and property of the people through the establishment of a preemptive disaster management framework.

  • Recently, 'Government 3.0' has become the topic since the inauguration of the new government. According to Government 3.0 Promotion Master Plan, this means providing bilateral customized administrative service based on the values of opening-up, sharing, and cooperation for the individuals of the people. Currently, if disaster victims, who have private property damaged by natural disasters such as typhoon and torrential rain, want to receive disaster relief service supports such as financial support, tax cut, reduction in electric and communication charges, they have to visit each of applicable organizations and apply for the relief service supports. The application forms and procedures are so diverse and complex that disaster victims undergo many discomforts. So this thesis established the solution of residents' discomforts and the providing of practical benefits through disaster victims' one stop application for service as the research objective. Accordingly, the solution plan was concretely presented through preparing the relief service promotion strategies comprising the establishment of administrative service supporting system and the preparation of legal and institutional device, the establishment of computing system for one stop service and the reinforcement of general publicity for successful promotion of cooperation projects.

  • Damage on assets and lives caused by natural disasters can be minimized by the provision of early warning information and preventive activities. In this sense, the importance of a disaster early warning system continues to increase. This study specifies the kinds of early warning systems depending on the type of natural disasters such as typhoon, flood and heavy snow. The mechanism for information transmission and status of early warning operations are analyzed. Through this analysis, the urgent need to establish a national integrated early warning transmission system is emphasized. In addition, this study offers methods to prevent unnecessary overlapping of investments by establishing an organic mechanism among individual early warning systems. Based on the standardization of disaster-related information, this study also provides methods to improve the efficiency of disaster early warning systems by organizing a permanent team for handling the systematic management and operation of the system.

  • One of the purposes of Information Technology (IT) is to support human response to natural and social problems such as natural disasters and spread of disease, and to improve the quality of human life. Recent climate change has happened worldwide, natural disasters threaten the quality of life, and human safety is no longer guaranteed. IT must be able to support tasks related to disaster response, and more importantly, it should be used to predict and minimize future damage. In South Korea, the data related to the damage is checked out by each local government and then federal government aggregates it. This data is included in disaster reports that the federal government discloses by disaster case, but it is difficult to obtain raw data of the damage even for research purposes. In order to obtain data, information extraction may be applied to disaster reports. In the field of information extraction, most of the extraction targets are web documents, commercial reports, SNS text, and so on. There is little research on information extraction for government disaster reports. They are mostly text, but the structure of each sentence is very different from that of news articles and commercial reports. The features of the government disaster report should be carefully considered. In this paper, information extraction method for South Korea government reports in the word format is presented. This method is based on patterns and dictionaries and provides some additional ideas for tokenizing the damage representation of the text. The experiment result is F1 score of 80.2 on the test set. This is close to cutting-edge information extraction performance before applying the recent deep learning algorithms.
