Most of the damage caused by typhoons on the Korean Peninsula is caused by large amounts of rain and strong winds. To reduce the damage of typhoons, it is very important to predict the possibility of damage by the factor in advance and to understand the detailed Spatio-temporal distribution characteristics related to rain and wind accompanied by affected typhoons on the Korean Peninsula. In this study, a preliminary study was conducted to develop a KTTI that can provide information that can be used in actual disaster prevention administrative sites by classifying typhoon types and analyzing characteristics of detailed regional units. Rain and wind accompanied by typhoons affecting the Korean Peninsula did not show uniform effects and characteristics in one form throughout the Korean Peninsula, but also different ranges and characteristics for each factor for the same wind speed and precipitation.
Therefore, based on the results of this study, it is believed that more useful tools and information related to the influence of typhoon on the Korean Peninsula can be derived if a more specific and diverse KTTI analysis is performed on the entire Korean Peninsula after modern weather observation in Korea. In addition, KTTI will be useful as prior information on typhoons on the Korean Peninsula.
