초록

최근 오픈소스 소프트웨어에 대한 수요가 높아지면서 오픈소스 소프트웨어 시장은 더 커지고 있으며, 국내에서도 오픈소스 소프트웨어를 활성화하기 위한 다양한 정책이 추진되고 있다. 하지만 아직까지 공간정보 분야의 오픈소스 소프트웨어 활성화를 위한 노력은 거의 이루어진 바 없다. 본 논문은 국내 오픈소스 공간정보 소프트웨어 사용자 요구사항을 분석하여 활용 현장에 적합한 활성화 지원방안을 도출하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 이를 위하여 오픈소스 소프트웨어 분야에서 추진된 활성화 관련 연구를 검토하고, 오픈소스 공간정보 소프트웨어의 인지도, 활용현황, 도입의향 및 활성화 지원방안 등에 대한 설문조사를 실시하였다. 오픈소스 공간정보 소프트웨어의 도입 의향은 기업에서 97%, 학교에서 89%로 높았으나 공공기관에서는 69%로 나타나 공공기관의 인지도 개선을 위한 홍보 활동이 필요함을 시사 하였다. 또한 대부분의 응답자가 활성화 지원방안으로 교육 기회와 기술 지원이 가장 필요하다고 느끼는 것으로 나타났다. 본 논문은 향후 국내 오픈소스 공간정보 소프트웨어 활성화를 위한 정책 수립의 기초 자료로 활용될 것으로 기대된다.

Recently, the open source software market is becoming bigger and bigger as its demand keeps increasing worldwide. A variety of policies have been driven in Korea in order to vitalize the open source software. However, the performance for vitalizing the open source GIS software has not been initiated yet. The purpose of this research is to generate the support plan to vitalize the domestic open source GIS software which is appropriate for real field by analyzing the actual demand and user requirements. For this purpose we reviewed all the researches related to the vitalization of the open source software and conducted a survey based on the awareness of the open source GIS software, the current vitalization status, the adoption intent and necessary strategies for vitalization. According to the survey, the intent of adopting the open source GIS software is relatively high in both enterprises(97%) and universities(89%). On the other hand it is very low in public organizations(69%). As a result, the survey implies that more intense public relations are needed to escalate the awareness of the open source GIS software in the public organizations. In addition, the survey shows that both education and technology support are definitely needed as a strategies for the vitalization of the open source GIS software. We expect that this research can be utilized as a basic material for the policy making of the vitalization of the open source GIS software in Korea in the future.
