The purpose of this paper is to present guidelines on technical GIS policy for integrating GIS with emerging information technologies and infrastructure systems for national GIS development. These guidelines are expected to advance the development of GIS and stimulating GIS industry, by anticipating potential problems. This paper consists of foul parts. After Introduction, section two covers the present and upcoming status of essential information technologies including communications, security, LBS, Ubiquitous and standardization. Section 3 describes the guidelines for combing GIS and emerging IT for national GIS development. The final section summarizes and derives conclusions.

Korean government has conducted National Geographic Information System(NGIS) project since 1995. The NGIS was set up and directed by central government to stimulate the growth of GIS field in Korea. Thanks to the project, all aspects of GIS in Korea has been rapidly developed. However, this government-led strategy now reveals some limitations on the advancement of GIS in Korea It is time to prepare new approaches for the further development of GIS in Korea. This study aims at introducing the concept and model of National Spatial Data Infrastructure(NSDI) and suggesting strategies fir it. By doing so, this research attempts to reestablish the role of government and draws new policy directions for the NGIS.

The purpose of this study is to present the role of NGIS(National Geographic Information System) and the development strategy for Business GIS in the ubiquitous society. We analyze the level of GIS technology with the ICT(Information Communication Technology) as well as GIS application trends especially in location-based circumstances. Also, we advocate not only making GIS contents to meet the international standards such as GML(Geography Markup Language) and TPEG(Transport Protocol Experts Group) but applying GIS as a killer application to oncoming diverse ICT areas including LBS(Location -Based Service), Telematics, ITS(Intelligent Transport System), gCRM(geographic Customer Relationship Management), DMB(Digital Multimedia Broadcasting), u(ubiquitous)-City and u-Town. Finally, we build a conceptual Business GIS model based on NGIS for QoS, standardization, R&D, education, and security.

Informatization today has been developed in a ubiquitous environment unifying real and virtual space from digital space. To reflect on this trend, the government has promoted the u-Korea Project, which is a national strategy based on ubiquitous technology. With this national informatization policy, 'The Creation of the Infrastructure for Realization of Ubiquitous Country' for establishing a ubiquitous world is presented in the 3rd National Geographic Information System (NGIS) Master Plan, which manages national spatial information. However, we have not yet discovered distinct change for ubiquitous environments and practical technologies. The purpose of the study is to explain the current status of Ubiquitous policies and National GIS policies as a representative national information strategies directed toward the ubiquitous society by comparing Korea and Japan, and then develops improved strategies for the future.

This study is to suggests the vision and policy issues on National Geographic Information System in Korea. Firstly, this study is to describe the current situation and problems of national geographic information. ${\ulcorner}$The Second national geographic information plan${\lrcorner}$ consist of 47 projects include national level. For the purpose of third NGIS plan, diverse problems suggested on spatial information computierization, application, distribution. Secondly, we conducts an analysis of national geographic information demand. According to the analysis results 'cyber geospace' is the key issues in near future. In order to construct the ${\ulcorner}$Integrated Digital Territory${\lrcorner}$ in the 21st Century, the current promoted project for the national geographic information constuction needs to be more developed. In this regard, it is necessary to implement ${\ulcorner}$Integrated Digital Territory${\lrcorner}$, enhancing the usability of NGIS, creating the 'cyber geospace' and intelligent territory.

The NSDI concept has changed with the development of the NSDI. While the NSDI was initially established as a separate entity, recently more attention has been given to the SDI hierarchy, from a local level to a global level. As an advanced NSDI, the USA, the UK and Canada emphasize more on better citizen services through an e-Government GIS portal such as the USA's Geospatial One-Stop. This study hypothesizes that the characteristics of NSDIs can be different from each nation in terms of vision, structure, evolution stages and a degree of integration with the e-Government. Rather than to describe differences just fur comparison, more characteristics of NSDIs are identified and the comparisons are developed as recommendations for the future NGIS(National Geographic Information System) in Korea.

This article reviewed issues in Korean geographical journals: web GIS and National GIS. Web GIS in Korea is now evolving to mobile GIS, which requires portable hardware, wireless Internet, and GPS receiver. The new trend of mobile GIS is using a smart phone. Recently, a variety of studies for the mobile App and mobile Web in Korea has been developed. With explosive information on the Web 2.0, the Korean government has built the Human-Oriented Geographic Information System (HOGIS) in which Ontology was implemented for semantic query on the Web. On the government side, Korean government has produced various nationwide data through 4-phase NGIS project. Current NGIS ($4^{th}$ phase: 2011-2015) moves toward a Korean Green Geospatial Society using geospatial information as a new growth engine for the future.

Standards are essential to facilitate the efficient use of GIS data. International Standards such as ISO TC211's 19100 series and various technical specifications from OpenGIS Consortium are some of the examples of efforts to maintain the interoperability among GIS applications. This paper aims to provide the effective policy directions that can increase the use of GIS standards by providing the comprehensive list of priorities in developing GIS standards. This paper reviews the current status of the use of GIS standards in the field and analyses the use pattern. Also this paper examines the need for revision of the existing standards and new standardization efforts based on the current status of International Standards. Based on the analysis of the use pattern of the current GIS standard, this paper suggests a policy directions which emphasizes the need for more efforts in standardization of geographic information services standards and more coordination among all standard-related stakeholders in government and industry.

By the rapid progress of U-IT(Ubiquitous Information Technology), a variety of national development policies have been devised on the basis of the utilization of the technology Above all things, a number of local governments are driving to construct a 3D GIS(Geographical Information System) that is as a infrastructure for the regional development which is including a u-City construction as a future city model, the competitiveness reinforcement of local governments, a reasonable means of urban management, etc. In this study we tried to find the fundamental direction of construction and utilization of 3D GIS in local governments. As the result of study, we suggested the advanced vision of 3D GIS has a role of treating the public affairs of local governments and of supporting the various private business scope.

GIS의 역사는 1970년대 컴퓨터의 본격적인 등장 및 급격한 사회환경 변화에 대한 자료 처리도구의 필요성이 대두됨에 따라 전문 GIS산업이 등장하게 되었고 자원, 환경관리 및 공공시설 관리에 주로 활용되었다. 1980년대에는 GIS의 저변확대기로 관계형 데이터베이스 및 워크스테이션이 개발되었고, 1990년대에는 H/W, S/W의 발전과 더불어 저장매체 및 통신기술이 발달하게 되었고 이때 GPS 및 3D GIS가 나타나게 되었고 Internet GIS 및 Mobile GIS 응용프로그램 등장과 더불어 GIS 생활화가 시작되었다. 미국, 영국, 캐나다 등 주요 선진국에서는 GIS 구축을 사회간접자본이라는 개념하에 국가발전 전략사업의 일환으로 추진중에 있으며 1998년 기준으로 40억달러 규모의 GIS 시장이 매년 20%이상 시장확대가 이루어질것으로 예상하고 있다. 이에 우리나라도 1980년대 후반부터 GIS에 대한 정부차원의 관심이 증대하여 국가지리정보시스템 구축에 약5,000억의 예산을 배정하여 진행하고 있다. 이에 발맞추어 21C 전력사업 환경변화에 적극적으로 대처하고 배전설비 관리업무의 혁신을 위하여 신배전정보시스템 사업의 일환인 설비DB 구축을 시행하였으며 현재 운영중에 있다.
