For construction project in extreme cold region, it is essential to establish basic data on the site such as topographical data from the early stage of construction of planning and designing, and it is needed to frequently perform site investigation when necessary. However, extreme cold regions are characteristic of being at long distance and difficult in approaching, and special regions such as Antarctica, in particular, are hard to conduct site investigation. Although a site investigation may be conducted, those who can visit Antarctica are sufficiently limited so that most of the staff may participate in construction without knowledge of the site and increase the risk of errors in decision making or designing. In order to resolve such problems, the authors in this study identified methods of building wide-area topographical data and bedrock classification data of exposed areas via remote sensing and of building precise topographical data on the construction site. Also, the authors attempted to present methods by which such data can be managed and visualized integrally via three-dimensional GIS technology and all the participants in construction can learn sense of field and conduct necessary analysis as frequent as possible. The areas around the Jangbogo Antarctic Station were selected to be the research area for conducting effective integrational management and three-dimensional visualization of various spatial data such as wide-area digital elevation model, ortho-images, bedrock classification data, local precise digital elevation model, and site images. The results of this study may enable construction firms to analyze local environments for construction whenever they need for construction in extreme cold regions and then support construction work including decision making or designing.

Recently in order to more effectively and scientifically process forest official tasks, which have been focused on documents and inventories, they should be applied with the up-to-date spatial information technologies. Especially, the forest resource information management based on GIS(geographic information system) and aerial orthophoto is expected not only to play an important role as DSS(decision support system) for domestic forest conservation policy and forestry development industry but also to service forest resource information toward people such as the owners of a mountain rapidly. In this study, the important forest information such as digital topography map, digital forest type map, digital forest cadastral map, digital aerial photographs and attribute data were first reprocessed and constructed in DBMS(data base management system). In addition, forest officials could analyze and retrieve forest information by using detail sub-application systems such as forest cadastral retrieval, forest land development information management, reserved forest information management and forest resource information retrieval. For this, the user interface is developed by using Visual Basic 6.0 and MapObjects 2.1 of ESRI based on CBD(component based development) technology. The result of developing this system will not only perform constructing economical forest and better environment but also be the foundation of domestic spatial technology for forest resource management.

As greenhouse gas emissions have been increasing in the world, global warming is being recognized as a cause of the global problems like climate change. This is closely associated the fossil fuels. Thus renewable energy has been brought to the attention of many people as the upcoming alternative energy source to cope with the fossil drain and increased environmental regulations. Especially, the solar energy among renewable energy has drastically increased. In this study, we calculate on daylight ratio about the solar energy for buildings based on digital surface model. The digital surface model was made using the spatial information data. And it was simulated the shadow analysis using SAS. Therefore, it was suitable places to utilize the solar energy in the Gyeongsan city. Consequently, the daylight ratio was considered important factor to select region of the industry of the solar light power generation.

우리나라는 정치, 경제, 사회, 문화 등 여러 분야에서의 발전과 국민들의 생활수준의 향상으로 최근 들어 물 소비량이 급격히 증가하고 있다. 또한, 수자원 관련 정보에 대한 국민들의 관심이 크게 증가하고 있으며, 이에 따라 국가에서는 수자원 관련 정보제공 창구를 마련하여 다양한 물 관련 정보를 제공하고 있다. 그러나 아직까지 다양한 분석 정보에 대해서는 제공되는 정보 항목이 다양하지 않으며, 이러한 분석 정보에 대한 제공 요구는 증가 추세에 있다고 할 수 있다. 또한 효율적인 수자원 계획을 수립하고 시행하기 위해서는 먼저 지역의 수자원 관련 현황을 분석하여 활용 가능한 수자원의 양을 명확하게 파악하여야 한다. 이와 함께 해당지역의 물 이용량을 파악하고 시간 및 공간에 따른 이용 경향을 분석하여 그 정보를 제공함으로써 보다 효율적인 수자원 계획 수립의 기반이 마련될 수 있다. 한편 수자원 관련 정책 수립 시 의사결정을 지원하기 위해서는 관련 정보를 분석한 후 지표 및 지수화하여 제공할 필요가 있다. 그러나 우리나라에서는 아직까지 수자원 관련 분양에 대한 지표 및 지수가 적극적으로 활용되고 있지는 못한 상황으로 최근 들어 수자원(물이용, 치수 및 하천환경) 분야에서 지표 및 지수를 이용한 관련 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 지역 및 유역의 물이용 관련 현황 자료를 수집하여 분석함으로써 각종 수자원 관련 계획수립 및 정책 수립에 도움을 줄 수 있는 기반정보를 제시하고, 대중에게 정보를 제공하고자 한다. 물이용 특성을 평가할 수 있는 할 수 있는 개별지표를 개발하여 유역별로 분석하여 물이용 관련 현황을 분석하였으며 개별지표를 압력(pressure)-현상(state)-대책(response) 구조체계로 구성하여 중간지표를 분석하였다. 또한 이를 종합하여 유역의 물이용 현황을 파악할 수 있는 지수인 물이용 취약지수(Water use vulnerability index:WUVI)를 개발하여 물이용 관련 정보를 시공간적으로 분석함으로써 정부 및 지자체의 수자원 관련 정책 수립 등 업무 수행을 보다 효과적으로 지원할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Recent earthquake events revealed that severe seismic damages were concentrated mostly at sites composed of soil sediments rather than firm rock. This indicates that the site effects inducing the amplification of earthquake ground motion are associated mainly with the spatial distribution and dynamic properties of the soils overlying bedrock. In this study, an integrated GIS-based information system for geotechnical data was constructed to establish a regional counterplan against ground motions at a representative metropolitan area, Seoul, in Korea. To implement the GIS-based geotechnical information system for the Seoul area, existing geotechnical investigation data were collected in and around the study area and additionally a walkover site survey was carried out to acquire surface geo-knowledge data. For practical application of the geotechnical information system used to estimate the site effects at the area of interest, seismic zoning maps of geotechnical earthquake engineering parameters, such as the depth to bedrock and the site period, were created and presented as regional synthetic strategy for earthquake-induced hazards prediction. In addition, seismic zonation of site classification was also performed to determine the site amplification coefficients for seismic design at any site and administrative sub-unit in the Seoul area. Based on the case study on seismic zonations for Seoul, it was verified that the GIS-based geotechnical information system was very useful for the regional prediction of seismic hazards and also the decision support for seismic hazard mitigation particularly at the metropolitan area.

Negative space in the discipline of art defines the space around and between the subject of an image. The use of negative space is an element of artistic composition, since it is occasionally used to artistic effect as the "real" subject of an image. In painting, it is a technique that negatively touches the background of an object to be expressed, so that it gives a feeling of unique texture and silhouette by touching unnecessary parts while leaving necessary parts. As in art, negative space in a design can also be useful to identify an image of infeasible design ranges with a straightforward view. Similarity between two disciplines leads to the introduction of the negative space concept for design space exploration. A rough design space exploration using statistics and visual analytics may support more efficient decision-making, and can provide meaningful insights into the direction of early-phase system design. For this, the approach guarantees dynamic interactions between visualized information and human cognitive systems. Visual analytics is useful to summarize complex and large-scale data. It is useful for identifying feasible design spaces, as well as for avoiding infeasible spaces or highly risky spaces. This paper investigates the possible use of the negative space concept by using an application example.

The OGC(OpenGIS Consortium), which is standardization organization of geographic data, have been studied standard for geographic data such as GML and GML based annotation for image and map. Annotation for map is applicable in various ways, understanding about geographic data, decision making and exchange of communication. For instance, Map annotation can be used for highlighting tour-course as symbols or explaining it as text on a map in tourism. This study suggests some annotation methodology for national digital map and presents a simple implementation of it. Firstly, this study suggests a way of updating OGC annotation schema which corresponds with DXF format and creating a GML application schema using the updated OGC annotation schema. Also it suggest a way of converting instance documents of annotated map to VML document with XSLT and VML for display. Later, it is needed to study for supporting another formats as well as DXF format. In addition, it is needed to study for managing the history of updated map entity with annotation in Local governments UIS(Urban Information System) in practical aspects.
