In this study, a predictive analysis was conducted on sediment disaster hazard area by selecting six research areas (Chuncheon, Seongnam, Sejong, Daejeon, Miryang and Busan) among the urban sediment disaster preliminary focus management area. The models that were used in the analysis were the existing models (SINMAP and TRIGRS) that are commonly used in predicting sediment disasters as well as the program developed through this study (LSMAP). A comparative analysis was carried out on the results as a means to review the applicability of the developed model. The parameters used in the predictions of sediment disaster hazard area were largely classified into topographic, soil, forest physiognomy and rainfall characteristics. A predictive analysis was carried out using each of the models, and it was found that the analysis using SINMAP, compared to LSMAP and TRIGRS, resulted in a prediction of a wider hazard zone. These results are considered to be due to the difference in analysis parameters applied to each model. In addition, a comparison between LSMAP, where the forest physiognomy characteristics were taken into account, and TRIGRS showed that similar tendencies were observed within a range of -0.04~2.72% for the predicted hazard area. This suggests that the forest physiognomy characteristics of mountain areas have diverse impacts on the stability of slopes, and serve as an important parameter in predicting sediment disaster hazard area.

For the purpose of the study, of the 76 areas subject to preliminary concentrated management on sediment disaster in the downtown area, 9 areas were selected as research areas. They were classified into three stratified rock areas (Gyeongsan City, Goheung-gun and Daegu Metropolitan City), three igneous rock areas (Daejeon City, Sejong Special Self-Governing City and Wonju City) and three metamorphic rock areas (Namyangju City, Uiwang City and Inje District) according to the characteristics of the bedrock in the research areas. As for the 9 areas, analyses were conducted based on tests required to calculate soil characteristics, a predictive model for root adhesive power, loading of trees and on-the-spot research. As for a rainfall scenario (rainfall intensity), the probability of rainfall was applied as offered by APEC Climate Center (APCC) in Busan. As for the prediction of landslide risks in the 9 areas, TRIGRS and LSMAP were applied. As a result of TRIGRIS prediction, the risk rate was recorded 30.45% in stratified rock areas, 41.03% in igneous rock areas and 45.04% in metamorphic rock areas on average. As a result of LSMAP prediction based on root cohesion and the weight of trees according to crown density, it turned out to a 1.34% risk rate in the stratified rock areas, 2.76% in the igneous rock areas and 1.64% in the metamorphic rock areas. Analysis through LSMAP was considered to be relatively local predictive rather than analysis using TRIGRS.
