The main objective of this study is to determine the methodology to increase the practical use of future Marine GIS based on the user's point of view of the analysis of maritime & fishery government agencies's roles. GIS related job duty of two Busan District offices of MOMAF(Ministry of Maritime and Fisheries), NFRDI(National Fisheries Research & Development Institute), Korea Institute of Maritime and Fisheries Technology and marine & fisheries local government offices of Busan Metropolitan city were analyzed for the establishment of MGIS, future extended service targeting user's increased practical utilization. Several suggestions in the area of production mechanism and technical policy for marine geographic information among the government agencies are developed to settle down successfully MGIS in Busan. Furthermore, 10 fields of Marine Geographic issues are rearranged for intending the desirable system and service.

In South Korea, Mine industries were encouraged to obtain the natural resource from 1960 to 1980. However, the depletion of natural resource and decreasing price have been caused by the voluntary closure of non-economical mines and a cut of their production since 1990. Harmful wastewater containing such heavy metals as iron, aluminum, arsenic, and cadmium are being discharged from abandoned pits and waste stone and tailing dumping sites following the closure of mines. Therefore, the objective of this paper suggests a policy of mine hazard prevention(PMHP) and method that allows the combination of new spatial data and as well as collected data on resources for the sustainable mine reclamation and management using EGIS/MGIS technique to develop an integrated plan and management techniques.

Information integration for distributed and heterogeneous data sources is still an open challenging, and schema matching is critical in this process. This paper presents and approach to automatic elements matching between XML application schemas using similarity measure and relaxation labeling. The semantic modeling of XML application schema has also been presented. The similarity measure method considers element categories and their properties. In an effort to achieve an optimal matching, contextual constraints are used in the relaxation labeling method. Based on the semantic modeling of XML application schemas, the compatible constraint coefficients are devised in terms of the structures and semantic relationships as defined in the semantic model. To examine the effectiveness of the proposed methods, an algorithm for XML schema matching has been developed, and corresponding computational experiments show changes of calculated values.

Shoreline changes its shape and attribution dynamically by natural, unnatural acts and is the most important information for defining a countries territory. These shorelines can apply to frame work of MGIS, and they are getting important because we can implement the data for creating monitoring systems around coastal areas. This study proposed an algorithm for extracting shorelines automatically using a new developed Lidar data which is applied in ocean and coastal areas. Its result was compared to shorelines which were derived from ground survey. It showed stable shorelines in both natural, and artificial coast areas. It showed the possibility of extracting shorelines with LiDAR data and proved the method was more efficient and economical compared to recent studies and methods.

According to revisions of survey law taking effect on January 1, 2003, the Korean geodetic datum has been changed from a local geodetic to a world geodetic system. In this study, the datum transformation parameters especially for the maritime geographical data are determined. From database constructed through MGIS, a total of 492 coordinate pairs were selected and used in the parameter determination after outlier testing. Based on the parameter estimation, the Molodensky model is selected for datum transformation. For higher accuracy, Application of network optimization and a least squares collocation with Gaussian model has resulted in the accuracy better than 15 cm in coordinate transformation.

삼면이 바다인 우리나라의 국토환경에서 해양공간정보에 대한 국민들의 수요가 증가하고 다양해짐에 따라, 육상 및 해상의 지리정보는 관련기관, 민간부분 및 일반인에게 확산하여 부가가치를 창출할 수 있는 사회간접자본으로서의 역할이 요구되고 있는 실정이다. 이에 해양수산부는 제2차 국가지리정보체계 기본계획에 입각하여, 21세기 디지털 해양건설의 초석을 마련하기 위하여 해양지리정보 사업을 추진하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 해양지리정보체계(MGIS: Marine Geographic Information System)사업의 일환으로 해양기본지리정보에 관한 연구를 통하여 해양기본지리정보의 구축 시 필요한 필수항목으로 도출되었던 항목을 기준으로 데이터 모델링 및 데이터구축지침서를 작성하였다. 또한, 향후 NGIS의 통합을 고려한 국가차원의 해양기본지리정보 구성(안)을 제시하였으며 데이터의 품질기준, 유지관리를 위한 방안을 마련하였다.

This study discusses the spatiotemporal characteristics of the geomorphological changes in Gwangyang Bay. In this study, we analyzed four aerial photos and nautical charts. The geomorphological changes that have occurred over time were identified using an MGIS (Marine geographic information system) overlay analysis. As a result, we were able to identify the geomorphological changes that have resulted from the coastal development and fairway dredging of Gwangyang Bay. This paper demonstrates that the marine geographic information system can be effective in monitoring the geomorphological changes in coastal zones.

Several studies have been performed globally on the construction of integrated systems that are available for the integrated use of 3D geographic information on terrain and oceans. Research on 3D geographic modeling is also facilitated by the application of Lidar surveying, which enables the highly accurate realization of 3D geographic information for a wide area of land. In addition, a few marine research organizations have been conducting investigations and surveying diverse ocean information for building and applying MGIS(Marine Geographic Information System). However, the construction of integrated geographic information systems for both terrain and oceans has certain limitations resulting from the inconsistency in reference systems and datum levels between two data. Therefore, in this investigation, integrated geospatial information has been realized by using a combined topographical map, after matching the reference systems and datum levels by integration of airborne Lidar data and multi-beam echo sounder data. To verify the accuracy of the integrated geospatial information data, ten randomly selected samples from study areas were selected and analyzed. The results show that the 10 analyzed data samples have an RMSE of 0.46m, which meets the IHO standard(0.5m) for depth accuracy of hydrographic surveys.

Constructing the national inventory that can be used as a tool to identify and assess existing or potential contamination is necessary for efficiently managing the soil and groundwater contamination. In order to start this construction, the first step is how we define and classify potential contamination sources of soil and groundwater. After selecting the basic classification model of contamination sources from developed countries, we suggested the classification and list of the potential contamination sources of soil and groundwater which are appropriate for specific conditions of South Korea. In addition, we investigated several databases to confirm the existence of available data sources and then examined established attribute data through chemical accident response information system (CARIS) and water information system (WIS) in National Institute of Environmental Research and mine geographic information system (MGIS) in Mine Reclamation Corporation. All sorts of attribute data in the existing databases can be utilized as significant assessment factors for determining the management priority of potential contamination sources in the future. Therefore, it is required the expanded investigation of additional database sources and the continual modification so that the classification system of potential contamination sources can be improved.
