Abstract

As abnormal climates occur frequently around the world, the frequency and intensity of natural disasters are increased. In this study, trends of natural disasters are analyzed and identified the applied technology of smart water grid and digital water management, which are the latest water management systems to respond to climate change. Water-related damages such as typhoons and floods accounted for a large proportion of natural disasters around the world. In the case of Asia, it was found that over the past 50 years, typhoons caused the largest casualties of human life, and the biggest economic loss was caused by floods. In the case of Korea, the biggest economic loss over the past 10 years was disasters caused by floods and typhoons. In order to minimize the damage caused by these disasters, digital water resource technology is being applied worldwide. In this study, application cases of smart water management and digital technologies were investigated. In addition, the application direction of digital water management technology was proposed.
