Recently, large-scale multi-hazards have been occurred in the various areas of the world. A variety of Earth observation sensors such as satellite EO, aerial and terrestrial LiDAR have been utilized for global natural disaster monitoring. Especially, commercial satellites which observe the Earth regularly and repeatedly, and acquire images with cm-level high spatial resolution enable its applications to extend in the fields of disaster management from advanced disaster monitoring to timely recovery. However, due to existing satellite operation systems with some limitations in almost real-time and wide regional disaster response, close international collaborations between satellite operating organizations like NASA, JAXA, KARI etc. have been required for collecting satellite images in time through a satellite platform with multi-sensors or satellite constellation. For responding domestic natural disaster such as heavy snowfall and extreme rainfall in 2011, this paper proposes a disaster management system for timely decision-making; rapid acquisition of satellite imagery, data processing, GIS analysis, and digital mapping through cooperation with NDMI in Korea and International Charter-Space and Major disasters.

Recently, policy of the marine advanced countries were switched from the preemption using ocean to post-project development. In this study, we suggest improvement and the pending issues when are deducted to the database of the marine spatial information is constructed over the GIS system for the Korean Marine Spatial Planning (KMSP). More than 250 spatial information in the seas of Korea were processed in order of data collection, GIS transformation, data analysis and processing, data grouping, and space mapping. It's process had some problem occurred to error of coordinate system, digitizing process for lack of the spatial information, performed by overlapping for the original marine spatial information, and so on. Moreover, solution is needed to data processing methods excluding personal information which is necessary when produce the spatial data for analysis of the used marine status and minimized method for different between the spatial information based GIS system and the based real information. Therefore, collection and securing system of lacking marine spatial information is enhanced for marine spatial planning. it is necessary to link and expand marine fisheries survey system. It is needed to the marine spatial planning. The marine spatial planning is required to the evaluation index of marine spatial and detailed marine spatial map. In addition, Marine spatial planning is needed to standard guideline and system of quality management. This standard guideline generate to phase for production, processing, analysis, and utilization. Also, the quality management system improve for the information quality of marine spatial information. Finally, we suggest necessity need for the depths study which is considered as opening extension of the marine spatial information and deduction on application model.

In Korea, the cities continue to deteriorate, while the vacant houses in the small local towns emerge as a serious social problem. Despite the vacant houses emerge as a serious social problem in the small local towns as well as in the large cities, the basic researches into them are yet to be conducted on a full scale. Thus, in order to know about the spatial distribution of the vacant houses, this study conducted the square analysis and the kernel density analysis. As a result, it was confirmed that the vacant houses in Okcheon-gun had certain crowding forms and characteristics at the level of statistical significance. Next, in order to examine the distribution of the vacant houses in terms of the accessibility to the living SOC facilities, the GIS network analysis was performed, focusing on the major facilities and road networks. As a result, it was found that the better the accessibility to the living SOC facilities such as medical and well-being was, the ratio of the vacant houses was lower. In contrast, it was found that the accessibility to the obligatory facilities such as public administration and educational facilities did not have any important effects on the distribution of the vacant houses. All in all, through this study, the spatial distribution of the vacant houses in the small local town and their accessibility to the major SOC facilities could be analyzed.

In this study, the weight of evidence(WofE) technique based on GIS was applied to spatially estimate the groundwater yield characteristics at the Pocheon area In Gyunggi-do. The groundwater preservation depends on many hydro-geologic factors that include hydrologic data, land-use data, topographic data, geological map and other natural materials collected at the site, even with man-made things. All these data can be digitally processed and managed by GIS database. In the applied technique of WofE, the prior probabilities were estimated as the factors that affect the yield on lineament, geology, drainage pattern or river system density, landuse and soil. We calculated the value of the weight values, W+ and W-, of each factor and estimated the contrast value of it. Results by the groundwater yield characteristic computation using this scheme were presented feasibility map in the form of the posterior probability to the consideration of in-situ samples. It is concluded that this technique is regarded as one of the effective techniques for the feasibility mapping related to the estimation of groundwater-bearing potential zones and its spatial pattern.

Hongdo and Huksando belong to the Dadohae national park parks in Korea and are famous sightseeing spots in Shinahn-gun. One of the keystone species in this area is otter (Lutra lutra). We accomplished field works for finding its present habitat and condition analyses for the potential habitat in the area via spatial analyses with digital elevation model and satellite imagery. Isolated condition with coastal cliffs was one of the superior conditions over habitat in the main land, but the road kills of small animals were also observed. Three underground eco-corridors were suggested for the protection of otter habitat in the Shinahn-gun area. Regional development strategies of Shinahn-gun should be focused on the protection of safe and pristine habitat for otter population.
