Abstract

This study suggested the proper number of the forest fire surveillance cameras. The visualities and effectiveness of surveillance cameras were analyzed according to basic administrative units in Samcheok City. First, we assessed the visual range and effectiveness of each surveillance camera. The results showed that visibility of the seventh surveillance camera was narrow and overlapped because of short distance from other camera. Consequently, The results of these analysis shows that the cameras which had a poor visual range located must be relocated in area where that had a high visual range. As new surveillance cameras are installed in this region, the location of these would have to be considered by these conditions; the overlapping of visibility with other cameras or other organizations, the adequacy of its location, etc. And over 32 surveillance camera would be need for the most effective monitoring in Samcheok City. These results would be utilized for improving an efficiency of surveillance camera and forest fire management techniques.

산불에 취약하고 피해를 많이 입었던 삼척시를 중심으로 행정구역별(읍 면 동) 기존 산불감시카메라에 대한 가시권과 효과성을 분석하였다. 그 결과 총 9개의 카메라 중 7번 카메라의 경우 카메라간의 거리가 가깝게 위치하고 있어 가시면적이 좁고, 카메라 간 중복성이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 본 연구를 통해 기존 설치된 산불감시카메라에 대한 가시권을 분석함으로써 효과성이 낮은 곳에 설치된 카메라는 잘 보이는 지역으로 이동 설치해야할 필요성을 제시하였다. 또한, 삼척시 산불감시카메라의 설치 적정대수를 산정한 바, 최소한 32대 이상은 되어야 가장 효율적인 산불감시체계가 가능할 것으로 분석되었다.
