Background Technology

[0003] Facilities such as water and sewage pipes, gas pipes, electrical lines, and communication lines are buried underground for reasons including safety and urban aesthetics. The piping of these underground facilities is replaced due to unexpected accidents or the aging of the infrastructure.

[0004] Underground facilities are managed by different entities. For example, the Korea Water Resources Corporation manages water and sewage pipelines, the Korea Gas Corporation manages gas pipelines, the Korea Electric Power Corporation manages electrical lines, and the relevant telecommunications companies manage communication lines.

[0005] Accurate installation information is required for the repair or replacement of underground facilities. For example, when replacing a fault site to repair a gas pipeline, communication or electrical conduits buried near the gas pipeline may have been relocated from their original positions. Furthermore, even after excavating the expected fault site, the faulty or damaged section may not be discovered. As such, locating facilities buried underground is not easy. Prior art literature

[0019] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the attached drawings. Components referred to as parts or modules in this specification may be implemented in software or hardware.

[0021] The underground facility burial information display device according to the embodiment provides location information of a facility installed underground and provides the installation status and location information of the underground facility to an administrator. The underground facility may be gas, electricity, telecommunications, water supply, or sewage piping.

[0022] FIG. 1 is a configuration diagram of a geographic information display device according to the present invention.

[0023] The underground facility burial information display device according to the present invention converts previously collected pipe information data into three-dimensional solid information and provides it to an administrator using a display device such as a display panel.

[0024] The underground facility burial information display device includes an input unit (100), a storage unit (200), a conversion unit (300), and a display unit (400). Additionally, it may further include a control unit that controls the signal and data flow of the input unit, storage unit, conversion unit, and display unit.

[0025] The input unit (100) can receive commands from a user. The input unit may include a mouse, keyboard, scatter, and touchpad of a computing device. Additionally, the input unit (100) can receive previously collected underground pipe information data. The pipe information data may include location information of the pipe buried underground, depth information of the buried pipe, and attribute information of the buried pipe.

[0026] The location information of the above-mentioned pipe may include the length of the pipe, the latitude and longitude at which the pipe is installed, and the direction information of the buried pipe. The location information of the above-mentioned pipe may be two-dimensional geographic information.

[0027] In addition, the pipe depth information may be length information regarding the depth at which the pipes are buried from the surface. The pipe depth information may be depth information of the buried pipes corresponding to latitude and longitude coordinates.

[0028] In addition, the attribute information of the above-mentioned pipe may include the material, length, diameter, etc. of the buried pipe. Here, the types of pipe may be classified into gas pipes, electrical line pipes, communication line pipes, water supply pipes, and sewage pipes.

[0029] The above storage unit (200) may record two-dimensional map data, location information of a pipe buried underground, depth information of a buried pipe, and attribute information of a buried pipe. The storage unit may record pipe installation information according to the type of pipe. The storage unit may be configured to include any one of an HDD (hard disk), RAM (random access memory), and SSD (solid state drive).

[0030] The above conversion unit (300) can generate three-dimensional solid information based on pipe information data. Specifically, the conversion unit can generate three-dimensional solid information using pipe location information, pipe depth information, and pipe attribute information.

[0031] Figure 2 is a configuration diagram of a conversion unit according to the present invention.

[0032] The conversion unit (300) creates a pipe object and obtains a pipe installation model using the created pipe object. The conversion unit may include a data table acquisition module (310), an object creation module (320), and a modeling module (330).

[0033] The data table acquisition module (310) converts previously collected pipe information data into a data table. The data table may record location information of the pipe, depth information of the pipe, and attribute information of the pipe. The information recorded in the data table may be expressed and recorded as numbers, characters, or codes consisting of numbers and characters.

[0034] The generated data table may contain missing values. These missing values ​​may be omitted values. For example, while the location information of a pipe may be verifiable, the depth information of the corresponding pipe may be missing. In this case, the pipe depth information is considered a missing value.

[0035] If missing values ​​exist in a data table, incomplete objects may be generated later due to these missing values. The data table creation module can record missing values ​​by replacing them with standard values. The standard values ​​may be predetermined settings. Different standard values ​​may be set depending on the type of piping. For example, pipe diameters may be set in the order of sewage pipes, water supply pipes, gas pipes, electrical pipes, and communication pipes. Additionally, gas pipes may be set to steel pipes, while electrical and communication pipes may be set to PVC pipes.

[0036] The object creation module (320) creates a pipe object using a data table. The pipe object may be a three-dimensional pipe object with a three-dimensional shape. As an example, a pipe object having a three-dimensional shape may be created based on the diameter and length of the pipe.

[0037] The above pipe object can be classified into a gray pipe object and a color pipe object depending on the presence or absence of missing values. If missing values ​​exist, it is defined as a gray pipe object, and if missing values ​​do not exist, it can be defined as a color pipe object.

[0038] The above-mentioned colored pipe object may be displayed in different colors depending on the type of pipe. For example, gas pipes may be displayed in yellow, and electrical pipes may be displayed in red. Additionally, communication pipes may be displayed in blue.

[0039] The above gray object can be represented by a gray solid line or a gray dotted line. The administrator can distinguish the type of piping and missing data based on the type of color and the presence or absence of color.

[0040] The modeling module (330) creates a pipe installation model using pipe objects. The modeling module may have a program for modeling the three-dimensional pipe installation state of the pipe.

[0041] The modeling module (330) can model the three-dimensional installation state of the pipe by applying depth information and direction information of the pipe to the pipe object. Additionally, a characteristic label of the pipe can be added to the pipe object implemented through modeling. The characteristic label may be information regarding the material of the pipe.

[0042] The pipe installation model generated by the above modeling module can represent pipes in a three-dimensional piping state on a map.

[0043] The above display unit (400) displays a pipe installation model. The display unit can display a pipe installation model according to an input command from the input unit. The display unit may be composed of a monitor consisting of an LCD panel or an LED panel.

[0044] Hereinafter, a method for obtaining a pipe installation model according to the present invention will be described.

[0045] FIG. 4 sequentially illustrates the acquisition method according to the present invention.

[0046] The method for obtaining a pipe installation model of an underground facility according to the present invention comprises the step of obtaining a data table using previously collected pipe information data (S100), the step of creating a pipe object using the data table (S200), and the step of creating a pipe installation model using the pipe object (S300).

[0047] 1. A step of obtaining a data table using previously collected pipe information data (S100);

[0048] This step is performed in the data table acquisition module. First, location, depth, and attribute information of the piping are collected. The collected information can be recorded and displayed using a designated code. The acquired data table may contain missing values. In this case, if there are missing values ​​in the data table, they can be recorded as standard values.

[0049] 2. Step of creating a piping object using a data table (S200);

[0050] This step is performed in the object creation module. Pipe objects can be created based on the pipe length and diameter recorded in the data table. At this time, if there are missing values ​​in the data table during the creation of the pipe object, the pipe object may be displayed in grayscale.

[0051] 3. Step of creating a pipe installation model using a pipe object (S300);

[0052] This step is performed in the modeling module. A 3D pipe installation model is created using the pipe depth and direction information and matched to map information. Additionally, characteristic information such as the pipe material and installation date can be labeled on the 3D pipe installation model.

[0053] According to the present invention, pipes buried underground can be displayed three-dimensionally so that they can be easily distinguished visually. In addition, uncertain information regarding the buried pipes is distinguished and displayed separately from clear information, allowing the manager to easily recognize it and modify it after a verification process.

[0055] Although the present invention has been described in detail through specific embodiments, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and various modifications can be made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technical concept of the present invention.
