Abstract

Geosimulation model has been widely used to understand and predict various geographical phenomena (i.e., urban expansion, disease spreads) through an individual-level behaviors, properties and interactions. These models not only serve as conceptual models for intellectual interactions, but they also function as simulation-based policy analysis tools, such as COVID-19 prevention tools. Despite the abundance of research and widespread application of geosimulation in recent years, few studies have been conducted in Korean geographical societies. To this end, this study introduces the fundamentals of geosimulation modeling and its applications to public health, disaster evacuation, urban planning, and transportation. We expect that this paper helps many students and early career scholars to get an improved understanding of geosimulation modeling perse, and enabling them to apply this approach for their won research.

공간 시뮬레이션 모델은 개인 수준에서의 행동규칙, 속성, 상호작용 등을 중심으로 하여 다양한 지리적 현상(도시의 발전, 질병의 확산 등)에 대해서 이해, 해석, 예측 등을 위한 목적으로 널리 활용되어 오고 있다. 특히, 구축된 모델은 시뮬레이션을 통한 정책적 시나리오의 평가 등이 가능하다. 최근 국제 학회 및 학술지에서는 공간 시뮬레이션 모델링과 관련한 연구가 활발한 반면, 국내의 지리학계에서는 여전히 관련 연구가 미비한 것을 확인할 수 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 공간 시뮬레이션 모델링에 대한 기본적인 내용을 설명하고, 질병 및 보건, 재해 대피, 도시 및 교통 분야로 한정하여 공간 시뮬레이션 모델링의 활용 분야에 대해 소개하고자 한다. 본 연구를 통해 학문 후속세대가 공간 시뮬레이션 모델의 기초적인 내용을 학습하고, 향후 지리학 분야에서 공간 시뮬레이션 모델을 구축 및 활용하는 후속 연구가 많이 진행되는 것을 기대한다.
