Abstract
Purpose: This study aims to investigate the effect of road and space characteristics at the point of fire on fire dispatch time. Method: Multiple regression analysis was performed using the time required for dispatch as a dependent variable by linking the city's fire and dispatch records with GIS-based road and land use data. Result: Only 30% of the dispatch was made within the golden time (300 seconds), and network distance from fire stations and 119 safety centers, access to upper roads, and blind spots and slopes had a significant impact on the dispatch time. Conclusion: The road and space structure at the point of fire occurrence is the key to securing golden time, and it is necessary to reflect the fire response perspective in the relocation of fire infrastructure, road networks, and maintenance of old residential areas.
연구목적: 본 연구는 화재발생지점의 도로·공간 특성이 소방 출동소요시간에 미치는 영향을 규명하는데 목적이 있다. 연구방법: 서울시 화재·출동기록과 GIS 기반 도로·토지이용 자료를 연계해 출동소요시간을 종속변수로 한 다중회귀분석을 수행하였다. 연구결과: 골든타임(300초) 이내 출동은 30%에 그쳤으며, 소방서·119안전센터와의 네트워크 거리, 상위도로 접근성, 맹지·경사지 여부 등이 출동소요시간에 유의한 영향을 미쳤다. 결론: 화재발생지점의 도로·공간 구조가 골든타임 확보의 핵심이며 소방 인프라 재배치와 도로·가로망, 노후 주거지 정비에 화재대응 관점 반영이 필요함을 시사한다.
