Abstract

The extreme cold regions, including the South and North Poles, are rich in resources, but there are many constraints on resource development projects due to difficult access and a construction environment that is completely different from that of Korea. In recent years, global warming has increased the demand for the construction of resource exploitation plants. For resource development construction activities, a preliminary site analysis is required to minimize the risk of project implementation. In this study, the factors were analyzed to be considered in construction activities in extreme cold and optimal location selection system based on Geographic information system(GIS) has been developed. As a result of applying the development system to Alberta, Canada, where oil sand development is actively underway, it was confirmed that the results were consistent with the currently operating oil sand mining area.

남·북극을 포함한 극한지는 풍부한 자원이 매장되어 있지만 접근성이 어렵고, 국내와 전혀 다른 건설 환경 때문에 자원개발 사업 추진에 많은 제약이 있다. 최근 지구온난화로 극한지의 접근성이 용이해짐에 따라 자원개발 플랜트 건설 수요가 증가하고 있다. 이러한 지역에서의 자원개발 건설 활동을 위해서는 사업추진의 리스크를 최소화할 수 있도록 사전 입지 분석이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 극한지 건설 활동에서 고려해야 할 주요 요인들을 분석하여, 공간정보(GIS, Geographic Information System) 기반의 건설환경 플랫폼 및 최적 입지 선정 시스템을 새롭게 개발하였다. 오일샌드 개발이 활발하게 진행되고 있는 캐나다 앨버타주(Alberta) 대상으로 개발 시스템을 적용한 결과, 현재 운용되고 있는 오일샌드 플랜트 채굴 지역과 일치함을 확인하였다.
