Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of a cultural competence improvement program for maternity nurses. Methods: A quasi-experimental study using a non-equivalent control group pre and posttest design was used. Participants were 67 maternity nurses caring for multicultural pregnant women in G city. The cultural competence improvement program was developed based on the 3-D Puzzle Model and was provided using case-based small group learning methods for the experimental group (n=31). The control group (n=36) did not receive any intervention. Data were collected using self-report structured questionnaires at two time points: prior to the intervention and after the intervention and were analyzed with descriptive statistics, ${\chi}^2$-test, and t-test. Results: Compared to the control group, the experimental group reported significant positive changes for cultural knowledge (t=6.39, p<.001), cultural awareness (t=3.50, p<.001), and cultural acceptance (t=4.08, p<.001). However, change in cultural nursing behaviors (t=0.92, p=.067) was not significantly different between the two groups.

Recently, policy trends related to various information including the geospatial information have changed to openness and sharing. Therefore, it is necessary to apply geospatial standards to ensure a high level interoperability across heterogeneous geospatial information systems. These geospatial standards are essential to advancing data access, query, management, processing and interoperability of geospatial information systems. However, geospatial information companies which provide GIS software and service or construct geospatial data have been many difficulties to implement and adopt geospatial standards, because the geospatial standards of Korea were not systematically managed. So this study analyzed the various problems such as redundancy, version-mismatch and similarity of domestic geospatial standards through reviewing the present status of domestic geospatial standards as well as the international geospatial standards. Moreover, it is judged that the result of this study will be able to efficiently contribute to the domestic policy on geospatial standards for management, organization and laws in the National Spatial Data Infrastructure.
