Mobile office is becoming common as advances in mobile devices such as PDAs, Smart-phones, or wireless Internet. In this paper, we construct a mobile office environment on a geotechnical information system(GIS). Especially, web services and XML technology combined with SOA (service oriented services) are adopted for various types of mobile devices and services in a minimum cost. Web service and XML can provide an excellent SW reusability, extensibility, and interoperability even for heterogeneous distributed systems. Applications can exploit web services by just knowing server's address. Prototype system integrates a client in Visual Basic.Net and server in Java via the web services and XML data exchange. We verify effectiveness of the approach through the implementation of prototype system.

At present, GML becomes the global standard for the XML encoding of geographic information and is the foundation for the Geo-Web. GML is being applied to a wide range of geographic applications including GIS and location-based services, telematics and intelligent transportation systems. In this paper, we propose the tourism information system for supporting the location based service application. We made an effort to design and implement a GIS computing environment by thin client for mobile web mapping service. We are interested in the GML applications that include traditional GIS system for navigation service and location finder for points of interest (POI) services. This paper summarizes the Tourism information system for location based service of a small area (Han-Ok Village with the Korean traditional houses in Jeonju-city), in which moving travelers can obtain proper information services at the current location associated with traditional monuments, cultural products, food, and conveniences. In the paper, we report on the design of the thin client/server system for a mobile environment. This paper is divided into three parts. First, we give a general overview of the organization of the system and of the important concerns of our design. Second we focus on our system supports for location and POI determination, and design concerns. Finally, we show the graphic user interface of PDA, the procedures involved in the service, and the executed results.

In accordance with the completion of the spatial database building works in the central and/or local government authorities as well as the rapid popularization of various information services through internet, it is heavily required to provide spatial information services through World Wide Web. To provide a qualified spatial information service, it is crucial to have a Web-based GIS (Geographic Information Service) service system equipped with the publicity, the convenient accessibility, and the easy-to-use user interface. In this paper, we introduce a new component system for Web-based spatial information services based on the OpenGIS Simple Feature specification for OLE/COM[3] and OLE DB specification[4]. The important functionality of a Web-based spatial information service system includes its accessibility of various existing GIS server system and huge databases in addition to the resolution of response-time delay problems caused by transmitting a large amount of digital maps via internet[6]. To cope with these problems, our component system has been designed to access heterogeneous databases in transparent manner and to support vector-based and/or image-based image production techniques for shortening transmission time.

In this paper, we design and implement an Internet GIS based on ObjectWeb, which makes to use various distributed services and object paradigm. We use CORBA, which is the standard of distributed object middleware and supports interoperability and reusability regardless of the execution environment and the implementation language of a distributed code, so that it easily extends established systems in networking environment and accesses distributed heterogeneous spatial data. Our method distributes parts of user interactive tasks to clients to reduce and to improve the system performance while existing approaches concentrate all workloads on a server. We implement a travel information system on the developed IGIS. Users receive services from remote servers employing a Java client system running on a web browser.

Although the reuse of the cached data for scrolling the map reduces the amount of passed data between client and server, it needs the conversions of data coordinates, selective deletion of objects, cache compaction and object structuring step in the clients. The conversion is a time- intensive operation due to limited resources of mobile phones such as low computing power, small memory. Therefore, in order to control the map efficiently in the vector map service based mobile phones, it is necessary to study the methods which reuse cached objects for reducing wireless network bandwidth and overwhelming the limited resources of mobile phones as well. This paper proposes the methods of reusing pre-received spatial objects for map control in the mobile vector map service system based on client-server architecture. The experiments conducted on the Web GIS systems with real data show that the proposed method is appropriate to map services for mobile phone. We also analyze the advantages and drawbacks between the reuse of cached data and transmission of raw data respectively.

This paper designs and implements an integrated map server to produce an integrated map. Two requirements for the proposed map server are as follows. First, the system should support a customization of metadata to meet user's requirements. The map server designed here will predefine information such as representations, regions required for client-side processing in the metadata. This will allow users easily acquire an integrated map in the required form of clients. Second, the system should be able to support not only the integration of spatial data but also their non-spatial data. Fusion service is realized by using the concept of linking. The integrated map server suggested in this paper can improve the quality of the fusion service by integrating the results of the map servers according to user's requests. Our experiments shows that the integrated map server reduces the response time in web mapping environments.

기존의 통합 시스템은 이미 구축된 자윈을 재활용하여 데이타의 구축비용을 줄이고자 하는 의도에서 연구되었다. 특히 GIS에서는 공간 데이타의 규모가 방대하므로 그 구축비용이 더욱 증가한다. 이로 인해 공간 데이타를 위한 통합 시스템의 필요성이 대두되다. 최근 웹의 사용자 수와 그 응용의 수가 증가함에 따라 웹에서의 공간 데이타를 이용한 응용의 필요성이 승가하고 있다. 이에 따라 웹 환경에서 분산된 공간 데이타의 통합 시스템이 요구된다. 기존의 미디에이터(Mediator)를 사용한 통합에 비하여 웹을 기반한 공간 데이타의 통합은 웹의 환경적 특성과 공간 데이타의 크기와 형태 등을 고려해야 한다. 본 논문에서는 OGC(OpenGIS Consortium)의 웹 매핑 기술인 WMT(Web Mapping Testbed)의 중첩 맵 서버 (Cascading Map Server)를 사용하여 공간 데이타를 통합한다. 통합 과정에서 요구되는 표준화된 데이타 모델과 인터페이스는 OGC가 최근 제안한 GML(Geography Markup Language)과 웹 맵 서버 인터페이스를 이용한다. 본 논문은 XML의 XLink와 XPointer의 개념을 가진 융합 서비스(Fusion Service)기법을 중첩 맵 서버에 도입한 융합 맵 서버(Fusion Map Server)를 제안한다. 이러한 통합 방식은 데이터 사이의 관계성을 고려한 링킹 기반 통합이므로 통합 응용의 복잡성을 줄일 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 물리적 변환 등에서 생성되는 연산 비용을 줄일 수 있는 장점이 있다.

This paper refers and implements XML Web services, which supports networked interchanges of moving object information. XML Web services are expected to be fundamental building blocks in the move to distributed computing on the Internet. As an interchange format, GML encodes semantics, syntax, and schema of geospatial and geoprocessing-related information resources. It can give great benefits to utilize raw data easily as an XML encoding format does. This paper proposes a full coverage of interoperable location trajectory services consisting of 3 independent modules: a moving object database, a data processing server, and a web services interface module. For communications, SOAP protocols and WSDL documents are used, which can guarantee an interoperability of a system regardless of different platforms and service channels. This paper also designs a GML data format that represents location information of probe cars.
