GIS is the tool widely used for the practical solution of spatial problems in every region regardless of the language and ideology. In this paper research trends and tendencies of GIS in North Korea are reviewed compared with those in South Korea. For this purpose, academic publications on GIS in North Korea are surveyed and classified according to main subjects in GIS. Such classification by main subjects of GIS in North Korea are conducted on the basis of the classification of research trends and tendencies of GIS in South Korea. As a result, researches in North Korea are mainly focused upon such fields as geodetic surveying and measurement, map manufacture, atmospheric phenomena, agriculture and disasters, while there are few studies related to such fields as national GIS policy and circulation, GIS education, internet-based GIS, and traffic, to name but a few. Most parts of applied data are based on low and medium resolution image such as meteorological satellite images, Landsat images, and so on. This reflects the low level of the development of GIS DB infrastructure in North Korea.

This paper aims to analyze academic and technological progresses of GIS as reviewing research trends of GIS journals for which four major GIS journals, KAGIS(The Korean Association of Geographic Information Studies), KSISS(Korea Spatial Information System Society), KOGSIS(The Korean Society for Geospatial Information System), GISAK(Geographic Information System Association of Korea) have been selected. As the authors suppose that subjects of academic articles reflect academic and social demands, total 1,222 articles that have been published by the four journals from 1993 to 2006 were reviewed and analyzed by content analysis method. Because of large volumes and variety of research scopes, all topics in the papers were classified into several categories with title and keywords referenced in each paper and the categories were analyzed into 5 years period. Thus, from the analysis results, this paper asserts that research trends and academic progresses are well-structured to review recent GIS areas in Korea and the outcomes of the analysis can be an adequate guidelines to establish NGIS policies and strategies.

This study reviews the research trends of landscape ecology, geographical information system(GIS) and remote sensing(RS) that have appeared in articles published in the Journal of the Korean Institute of Landscape Architecture over the last 30 years. The aim is to identify the research characteristics in Korea. There were 905 papers published in the journal during this period. There were 35 papers concerning landscape ecology, and 26 papers concerning GIS/RS, which are few compared to other research fields. The papers were classified chronologically, and reviewed in terms of their contents. In the seventies and eighties, papers were contributed from other disciplines, e. g., forestry, and also included translated papers from foreign sources. However, in the nineties, the number of papers grew continuously. During the fist half of nineties, six papers were published. However, 30 papers were published during the last half of nineties, which shows a rapid increase in the number of papers contributed. From 2001 to 2003, there were 17 papers published. Overall, there tends to be an increase in the number of papers contributed and published.

Lately, 3D GIS begins to be widely used in many application fields. In this research, we proposed a survey and analysis result of research trends for 3D GIS technologies-acquisition of 3D spatial data, 3D features structuring, 3D visualization, data query, and transmission etc. The result is expected to give the helpful information for constructing research road-map on development of 3D GIS technologies.

This research is primarily intended to investigate the potential of estimating green space threshold in terms of total volume control using degradation trends of green space derived from remote sensing and GIS. An empirical study for a case study site was conducted to demonstrate how a standard remote sensing and GIS technology can be used to assist in estimating the total control volume for green space in terms of area-wide information, spatial resolution and change detection etc. Guidelines for a replicable methodology are presented to provide a strong theoretical basis for the standardization of factors involved in the estimation of the green space threshold; the meaningful definition of land mosaic, redefinition of degradation trends for green space. It was demonstrated that the degradation trends of green space could be used effectively as an indicator to restrict further development of the sites since the visual maps generated from remote sensing and GIS can present area-wide visual evidences by permanent record. It is anticipated that this research output could be used as a valuable reference to support more scientific and objective decision-making in introducing aggregate control of green space.

The purpose of this study is to figure out the research trend of surveying in Korea through the analyses of research field and the published year of surveying related papers in journals and theses of master and Ph. D. The papers and theses published since 1957 were collected and analyzed to find out the major research topics and trends with time. The analyses of research trends in terms of time showed certain correlation between research areas, for example, remote sensing is highly correlated with GIS (98%), GPS correlated with GIS(95%). Through the regression analysis, it was found that the trends of the most fields were well-fitted with a third-order polynomial except the field of Geodesy. Furthermore, it was predicted that the number of studies in general surveying, photogrammetry, remote sensing and land information will be increasing while those in GPS, GIS, digital map and Geodesy will be decreasing.

Recently, as the renewable distributed energy resources has increased, the variability within the electrical power distribution system has increased, so that there is a growing concern about the stable electrical power distribution system. For efficient management of future electrical power distribution system, it is necessary to improve the electrical power distribution system operation using new visualization technology. In this paper, we describe the current status of GIS introduction and related technology trends in the field of electrical power distribution, and analyze the necessity of GIS system for electrical power distribution system operation and problems to be solved when introducing GIS technology.

This research focused on the effect of the GIS, uIT, and RS based smart disaster systems. Ubiquitous IT strongly involved in intelligent analysis for the natural disasters. Remote sensing technologies, such as hyper-spectral imaging, MODIS, LiDAR, Radar, and optical imaging processes, can contribute many means of investigation for the natural and unnatural problems in the atmosphere, hydrosphere, and lithosphere. Recent IT trends guides abundant smart solutions, such as automatic sensing using USN, RFID, and wireless communication devices. Smart monitoring systems using intelligent LBSs will produce many ways of checking, processes, and controls for the human safeties. In results, u-smart GIS, uIT, and RS based disaster systems must be using ubiquitous IT involved smart systems using intelligent GIS methods.
