Abstract

Korea has been known as volcanic disaster free area. However, recent surveying result shows that Baekdu mountain located in northernmost in the Korean peninsula is not a dormant volcano anymore. When Baekdu mountain is erupting, various damages due to the volcanic ash are expected in South Korea area. Especially, volcanic ash in the air may cause big aviation accident because it can hurt engine or gauges in the airplane. Therefore, it is a crucial issue to interrupt airplane navigation, whose route is overlapped with volcanic ash, after predicting three dimensional dispersion of volcanic ash. In this paper, we deals with 3D visualization techniques for volcanic ash dispersion prediction results. First, we introduce the data acquisition of the volcanic ash dispersion prediction. Dispersion prediction data is obtained from Fall3D model, which is volcanic ash dispersion simulation program. Next, three 3D visualization techniques for volcanic ash dispersion prediction are proposed. Firstly proposed technique is so called 'Cube in the Air', which locates the semitransparent cubes having different color depends on its particle concentration. Second technique is a 'Cube in the Cube' which divide the cube in proportion to particle concentration and locates the small cubes. Last technique is 'Semitransparent Volcanic Ash Plane', which laminates the layer, whose grids present the particle concentration, and apply the semitransparent effect. Based on the proposed techniques, the user could 3D visualize the volcanic ash dispersion prediction results upon his own purposes.

대한민국은 화산재해로부터 안전한 지역으로 알려져 왔다. 그러나 최근의 관측 결과들은 한반도 최 북 단에 위치한 백두산이 더 이상 휴화산이 아님을 보여주고 있다. 백두산 화산이 폭발한다면 남한지역에서는 화산재에 의한 다양한 피해가 예상된다. 특히 공중의 화산재는 운항되는 비행기의 계기판 및 엔진을 마비시킴으로써 대형 항공사고를 유발할 수 있다. 따라서 화산재의 삼차원 확산을 예측하여 화산재가 있는 항로를 비행할 것으로 예상되는 비행기 운항을 중지시키는 것이 매우 중요하다고 할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 화산재 확산 예측결과의 삼차원 가시화 기법을 다룬다. 우선 화산재 확산 예측 데이터의 취득에 대하여 소개한다. 확산 예측 데이터는 화산재 확산 시뮬레이션 프로그램인 Fall3D를 이용한다. 다음으로 세 가지 화산재 확산 예측결과의 가시화 기법을 제안한다. 첫 번째 기법은 '공중의 큐브' 방식으로 화산재의 입자 농도별로 다른 색을 가진 반투명 큐브를 공중에 배치하는 방식이다. 두 번째 기법은 '큐브안의 큐브'방식으로 '공중의 큐브' 방식을 개선하여 농도의 정도에 따라 큐브의 분할 정도를 달리하여 배치하는 방식이다. 마지막 방식은 '반투명 화산재 평면' 기법으로 화산재 농도를 가지고 있는 레이어 들을 적층하고 투명효과를 적용하는 방식이다. 본 논문에서 제시한 방법을 기반으로 사용자는 목적에 맞는 방식대로 화산재 확산 예측 결과를 삼차원 가시화 할 수 있을 것이다.
