This study used GIS method for the characteristic analysis of farmstead location in study area. The present study surveyed the coordinates of location for 76 livestock farmsteads with big size in rural areas within city of Cheonan. Based on the surveyed data, this study analyzed the spatial characteristics of location for the farmsteads by using both new evaluation criteria and their corresponding GIS (geographic information system) layers developed in this research. The criteria consist of six factors, which are 2 geographic factors for slope(SLO) and aspect(ASP) of earth surface, 3 accessability factors for distance from water area(DWA), road(DRO), and built-up area(DBA), including type of landuse(TLA). In the analysis results of six criteria using the grid funcations of GIS, the highest distributed ratios of the farmsteads per criterion were found at the lower slope area less then 2% in SLO, the area with south and south-east direction in ASP, the area with distance between 500m and 1,000m in both DWA and DRO, the area within 500m in DWA, and the paddy and upland area in TLA. As new finding of this study, these analysis results seemed that the farmsteads have been located at the better places with the priority to build and manage conveniently and economically.

The actual condition of farmstead, mainly livestock facility, was surveyed in ChungChongBukDo in order to find out factors and problems of farmstead planning design. From the data collected, a type, plot, size and scope of farmstead, relationship of house and farmstead, topography, climate, proprietor's opinion on them were analyzed or obtained as the basic design criteria for planning: designs. The best type of farmsteads was individual farm having livestock facilities. They were mostly breeding a kind of livestock without their plan and Bone planning at residing area. The south aspect of the facility was extremely much and slope of the land was mostly 15。 below. Wind blows from East-South in summer and winter wind are West-North extremely much. Sun heat was mostly above 6 hours. In the case of collective and composite farmstead, proprietors wanted that a head of cow has 1,000-3,000 pyeong, the area of facility has 1,500-2,000 pyeong, total area of farmstead has 45,000-400,000 pyeong and an estimated expense is 0.2 - 1.5 billion won. Farmstead planning design was proposed through field survey results and contents of'references. Examples of farmstead planning design were composite and concentrated type and existed according to the situation of road(North, South, East, and West).
