The objective of this study is to analyze demands and important level of rural amenity resources information in rural development consulting. For this study, the questionnaire survey was implemented to regional development consulting companies and organizations with three parts. The first part is about the methodologies in using for the rural development consulting, particularly, the collect processes of the amenity resources information and methods to establish development strategy are included in the questionnaire. In second part, essential factors for constructing the information system of rural amenity resources are investigated. Finally, the rural development project types were classified, and performed an analysis of important level for the rural amenity resources utilizing AHP technique. According to results of this study survey, the demands from residents are the most important factor for establishing rural development plan, and the relationship among neighboring regions and the amounts of rural amenity resources are also considered as important factors. The most important rural amenity resources are different as rural development project types.

The objectives of this study are to analyze and compare importance degrees of rural amenity resources for rural development project using AHP and ANP (Analytic Network Process) which can be applied a complex decision making problem. For this study, I chose the 5 rural development project types and the 10 rural amenity resources as major criteria and formed the ANP network from relations with criteria. The importance degree matrix were derived by the results of AHP and several ANP analysis. As the results of this study, the importance degrees of 10 rural amenity resources are determined and the indigenous product resource is identified as the most important resource in general rural development project.

Rural amenity resources are damaged without organized management infra. National rural resources institute perform the project of developing rural amenity infra techniques from 2005 to 2009 targeting 1,230 eup-myun rural community. There are many resource surveying project in national level. For avoiding duplicated investment, clear definition of rural amenity and essential surveying items are needed. In this study, concept of rural amenity and relation with resource are considered and 10 rural amenity resource tables and items considering management, accessibility, and amenity period are developed. Finally, developed tables and items are compared with items in previous developed surveying system.

This study has intended to find strategies improving rural amenity through establishing eco-village. This research presented eco-village establishment as an alternative to solve the problems that current rural villages face, such as FTA farming crisis, aging, weakening of farming competitiveness. Thus, this study has set up ecological rural amenity strategies, based on the principles and cases of both eco-village development and rural amenity through suitability analysis and statistical analysis with survey analysis. This study has defined the eco-rural amenity and set up such categories as environment, history-culture, society, image, and economy. Based on the definition and categories, this study has found the strategies to improve ecological rural amenity in accordance with categories.

Recently, many of rural villages are pursuing rural tourism to attract citizens and increase nonfarm income. A key of rural village plan utilizing rural amenity resources is to make sustainable villages considering regional character and potential for development that will work for the residents. In this study, we analyzed Rural Amenity Design Competition winning works which will be possible solutions to make proper plans for rural village and applied these contents to study areas. Three villages were selected as study areas and more than two types of amenity utilization were settled for planning direction for each village to have specialized and unique plan. Through Rural Amenity Design Competition which is being held annually, we will be able to get more data throughout rural area and verify trend of rural village planning. By selecting theme of the competition reflects needs of the time, more detailed and original ideas on amenity village planning can be drawn and this will contribute to proper and stable village planning.

The objectives of this study was to explore the concept, the origin and history, and classification of amenity. Amenity is a new approach about nature, environment and the world. The concept, origin and classification of amenity was widely diversified, however, the concept of amenity was inclusive and abstract, so amenity was easier to recognize than to define. Even though many people were interested in amenity, however, the movement or practice of amenity in Korea was still in infancy stage. This paper was an exploratory study of amenity and more detailed further studies on amenity should conducted in Korea. It was suggested that we should not start on philosophical question of amenity. We should rather start on practical problems of how to put into practice to insure quality of life in the community, to conserve nature, to study practical dimensions of amenity, and to develop indicators to measure amenity.

Rural amenity is regarded as a breakthrough that can revitalize the rural communities. The demand for rural amenity development is also increasing since the urban people have growing incomes and leisure time. This study was implemented to survey the needs and application directions of rural amenity database. The survey questionnaires were collected from various related groups including industry, universities, administration and research institute. Two kinds of analysis of variance (ANOVA) were carried out in order to prioritize the building rural amenity resource map among four user groups and ten rural amenity resources. The result of survey showed that most of respondents had been aware of amenity resources and the industry group had the highest level of utilization in making decisions for rural development. Although the significant difference among groups was not shown in the priority, the priority in the construction of information map was shown the significant difference among 10 kinds of amenity resources. Landscape's map and traditional resource map were relatively higher priority than the other resource map.

The objective of this study was to ad dress concepts and classifications of rural amenity that has been issued in rural development. There are varieties of amenity concepts which are established not only in foreign countries but also in domestic. The concepts amenity have evolved several different aspects depends upon the societal situation and needs by the time goes on. In this paper, amenity concepts were explored and classified to find a suitable rural amenity concept to Korea so that the concept can provide a basic framework for the rural development and rural amenity resources uses.

According to the growing concerns of the public with efficiency and effects of regional policies, their assessment works have become an important issue. Up to now, several studies have been carried out on economic effects of policies using conventional cost/benefit analysis, while there have been few studies on assessment of amenity oriented policies. From the above consideration, this study tried to develop An Annual Expenditure Assessment Model (AEAM) for amenity-oriented policy-making in rural area. As a pre-work for model development, the hierarchical indices system for rural development and the classification system of expenditure were designed. Being based on high significant relationship between rural amenities and local government expenditure, a linear optimization model for maximization of regional amenity was constructed. Through a case study of Sunchang-gun, Chonbuk-province, the model applicability was ascertained.
