Abstract

Time series satellite image data were used to discuss the possibility of the industrialization of the Kunsan area. The satellite observation was performed from 1979 to 1987 and it revealed a big change in the geographical features due to the rapid development of this area. From the previous experience regarding the industrialization of the coastal district of the Seto Inland Sea, the Kunsan area is very promising as an industrialized world trade center.
