The Ministry of Construction and Transportation (MOCT) has been constructing a nationwide soil information DB since 2000, as basic data for the construction of 'underground geographical information,' a project under the 2nd National Geo-spatial Information System (NGIS) master plan. The inputted soil information includes not only underground conditions such as the layer depth, type, color, and groundwater level, but also engineering information that can be applied to construction work design, such as on the standard penetration test and the compression test. It is difficult to use this information in soil analysis and design, however, because only the test results are currently available. A web-based geo-spatial information system was developed in this study to facilitate the effective application of the soil information database (DB). First, the space information, layer information, and engineering test information were loaded from the soil information DB in real time, and the earth volume, bearing capacity, and settlement were calculated to develop a web client that will evaluate the ground softness and liquefaction. It seems that the soil information DB can be actively applied to the planning and design of construction works using this system.

The data model is a system model which abstracts the spatial and nonspatial fea¬tures of the real world. A system defines through its data model a framework for the inner rep¬resentation of and connections with the outside world. The spatial query language is one of the most efficent framework for defining connection with outside world in the GIS. Existing GIS uses a spatial data model based on relational data model. Therefore, it has some difficulties in data abstraction and representing complex objects through inheritance. In this paper, we pro-pose an object oriented data model-Topological Object Model(TOM). TOM combines object model in ODMG and the planer topological object. Based on this model, we present an object-oriented spatial query language-OQL/Geo. OQL/Geo extends OQL in ODMG and represents TOM effectively. It also provides several operators such as geometric, topological and visible ope-rators. Moreover, it represents with diverse flexivility the request for complex spatial analysis and presentation of query results.

The 'Open Source' of programing is a method that is not only sharing the source, but also making the S/W by the low cost and easy way. In this study, we made the urban facilities management system(FMS) based on the GeoFOSS of Open Source. This system has the GIS function of the urban facilities management, the u-GIS function using the USN for processing the spatial information. Also, as we use the GeoFOSS of 'Open Source', we can have received many benefits. First, this system has the economic impact, because it is not necessary to buy the commercial GIS software. Second, this system can make most functions of the GIS, the performance does not bad compared to other products. Also, this system strictly conforms to the international standards, it is easy to get a repair, maintenance and interoperability.

Geo-based application services linked with the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) Web Processing Service (WPS) protocol have been regarded as an important standardized framework for of digital earth building in the web environments. The WPS protocol provides interface standards for analysis functionalities within geo-spatial processing in web-based service systems. Despite its significance, there is few performance tests of WPS applications. The main motivation in this study is to perform the comparative performance test on WPS standards. Test system, which was composed of WPS servers, WPS framework, data management module, geo-based data processing module and client-sided system, was implemented by fully open source stack. In this system, two kinds of geo-based image processing functions such as cloud detection and gradient magnitude computation were applied. The performance test of different server environments of non-WPS, synchronous WPS 1.0 and asynchronous WPS 2.0 was carried out using 100 threads and 400 threads corresponds client users on a web-based application service. As the result, at 100 threads, performance of three environments was within an adjacent range in the average response time to complete the processing of each thread. At 400 threads, the application case of WPS 2.0 showed the distinguished characteristics for higher performance in the response time than the small threads cases. It is thought that WPS 2.0 contributes to settlement of without performance problems such as time delay or thread accumulation.

Wavelet approach is regarded as a useful methodology for geo-environment analysis with respect to spatial objects with periodicity and spatial pattern, compared to autocorrelation analysis, Fourier analysis, variogram analysis and so on. However, there are a few case studies for geo-lineament characterization with the actual geo-based information such as remotely sensed imagery and DEM. In this study, wavelet approach in the Uiseung caldera region are carried out to delineate characterization for geolineament spatial pattern. There are high possibilities of the development of radial lineaments from the centre of round crater due to the eruption of a volcano and the subsidence of a crater. We have grasped the directionality of the whole linear structures of the caldera via rose diagram, and then performed wavelet analysis on the profiles of orthogonal directions for main directions of the lineaments. The result of this study is likely to be used as a fundamental data in order to grasp the outline of caldera structure prior to the close estimation

In these days, various kinds of web applications based on web 2.0 paradigm have been developed. In web 2.0 paradigm pursuing participation, sharing, and openness on the web-as-platform, web mapping or web GIS application are regarded as top most applications, so that web applications, handling geo-spatial contents, with user-interaction interface and search engine of high performance have been provided for both public users and expert users in the special domains. Public and industrial needs for web mapping mashup application by open API, linked with the practical web computing technologies, are gradually increasing. In this study, a user interface in mashup for geo-spatial feature generation was implemented by using mainly Google maps API. Spatial database resources in this implementation are those of Google mapping server. As the results, public users on web client can create their own geo-spatial data sets in web vector formats, without the help of any GIS tools or access to proprietary databases. It is concluded that web-based mashup application in client-side using open API can be used as an alternative for geo-browsing system or portable feature generation system.

The multi-disciplinary research project Strengthening Local Authorities in Risk Management (SLARIM), initiated by ITC, includes three case study cities in Asia. An important question is: what are the essential data for risk management and how to access such data. The role of common sources (e.g. census data), data derived from remote sensing (high-resolution satellite imagery, aerial photos), and data from close sensing (field observation, including mobile GIS) to acquire essential risk management data will be discussed. Special attention is given to the question of the minimum area and to disaggregating population data. A few examples are given of Kathmandu / Lalitpur, Nepal.

As a recent dominant web trend, mobile first strategy has been emphasized, and interests with respect to responsive web that provides effective methodology to various mobile devices and their display resolution are also increasing. However, it is an early adoption stage in web mapping for geo-spatial applications. This study is to present some practical examples of layouts using responsive web technologies linked to geo-spatial open platform. Suggestive consideration points for further application of responsive web to geo-spatial services are presented. On test implementing, HTML5, JavaScript, and CSS3 were used, and web mapping processing using OpenLayers was performed. It is expected that responsive web applications for contents derived from geo-spatial information or location data increase.

This study defines concept and service framework of Geo-Spatial Big Data(GSBD). The major concept of the GSBD is formulated based on the 7V characteristics: the general characteristics of big data with 3V(Volume, Variety, Velocity); Geo-spatial oriented characteristics with 4V(Veracity, Visualization, Versatile, Value). GSBD is the technology to extract meaningful information from Geo-spatial fusion data and support decision making responding with rapidly changing activities by analysing with almost realtime solutions while efficiently collecting, storing and managing structured, semi-structured or unstructured big data. The application area of the GSBD is segmented in terms of technical aspect(store, manage, analyze and service) and public/private area. The service framework for the GSBD composed of modules to manage, contain and monitor GSBD services is suggested. Such additional studies as building specific application service models and formulating service delivery strategies for the GSBD are required based on the services framework.

Recently, as the spatial information and various multimedia are fused together, the demand for the high value-added spatial information contents and the necessity of technology for spatial information security are increasing. However, since the current security policy is being managed independently by each system, there is a problem with unreliable or costly to modify or revise the security policy. Such problems occur frequently in the process of coordination or integration of the spatial information management systems that are used in public institutions and private companies. Therefore, in this paper, the access control system that could provide an integrated security policy for many spatial platforms and systems with expandable grammar and semantics was designed and implemented based on GeoXACML proposed by OGC. As the GeoXACML-based access control system designed and implemented in this paper follows the international standard specifications, it provides high portability and interoperability. Finally, in this paper, the efficiency of the system was proved by applying it to a virtual scenario on the military area requiring the access control.
