Abstract
Recently, the welfare of the elderly and the disabled has been becoming more important. For this reason, many facilities to accommodate them are being constructed in government and public offices. However, the facilities are usually just installed without providing information to the elderly and the disabled. So they are still faced with many difficulties due to the insufficient information on these new facilities. In this study, we implemented the information system of facilities which provides information to the elderly and the disabled through web pages. The objective of this system is to provide visual information about facilities. This system uses web service technology for effective management of data. It is being offered in Incheon's local office. Also, we see a high level of system satisfaction via a survey.
