ABSTRACT

KTX, high-speed rail of Korea, affects regional space, and the result is developed as an agglomeration in a region. This study focuses on the Dongdaegu Station area and analyzed spatial changes of the census output area of population and companies after KTX opening in 2004. The analysis was conducted with LQ(Linear quotient) to select regional specialized industries in KSIC, Moran’s I to examine geographical patterns and Hotspot Analysis to analyze agglomeration and changes of space. Firstly, an agglomeration of population within 2km radius of Dongdaegu Station has decreased. Considering that the population of Daegu Metropolitan City has decreased during 10 years, the result mirrors decreasing tendency. Secondly, a cold spot was shown in the agglomeration of manufacturing in 2000, but it was decreased in 2014. And hotspot areas of other industries have increased. Thirdly, spatial changes near Dongdaegu St. show the positive results of KTX opening, which expand social-economic activity. Lastly, a period of the spatial changes has coincided with a period of development near Dongdaegu St. This means that a planning of development near the high-speed rail St. can support the effects of high-speed rail opening.
