Abstract

In Korea, 63% of the nation's land is made up of forests, and the average temperature of the earth has been increasing. Forest service has been operating a proactive control system for preventing the spread of forest pests such as Pine wilt disease. but there were some hurdles in timely control due to weather, topography and manpower management difficulties. In this paper, we propose a model for building fast, accurate and efficient control system by categorizing the damage and dead wood automatically based on the images acquired using small unmanned aerial vehicles based on information and communication technology. In particular, the proposed model establishes an effective response system for government affairs through cooperation in the private sector. It can also create new jobs in the unmanned aerial vehicle business and service industries.

우리나라는 전국토의 63% 가 산림으로 이루어져 있으며, 지구의 평균 기온은 증가하고 있다. 소나무재선충병과 같은 산림재해충의 확산 방지를 위한 효과적 운영 방법으로는 선제적인 방제가 요구된다. 선제적인 방제 체계는 기상, 지형적 및 인력운영의 어려움 등으로 적시 방제에 쉽지 않다. 본 논문에서는 정보통신기술 기반으로 소형 무인항공기를 이용하여 획득한 영상을 기반으로 피해목과 고사목을 자동으로 분류하는 체계를 갖춰 신속·정확하고 효율적인 방제체계를 갖추는 모델을 제시한다. 특히 제안된 모델은 민간분야 협력을 통해 정부업무에 대한 효과적인 대응체계를 구축함으로써 무인항공기 사업 및 서비스 산업 등의 새로운 일자리 창출을 기대할 수 있다.
