본 연구는 센서스와 GIS가 어떻게 연계활용 될 수 있는지, 센서스 자료의 원할한 활용을 위한 전용의 수치지도가 왜 필요하며 그 제작은 어떠하여야 할지, 인구주택센서스 자료들의 발표기본단위가 될 센서스트랙과 블락 그룹이 왜 필요하며 어떻게 결정되어야 할 지에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 본 연구의 결론에 의하면: 첫째, 센서스와 GIS가 결합됨으로 인하여 센서스의 방법이며 절차가 좀더 명확히 효율적으로 진행될 수 있고, 각종 분석과 표현이 다양해지고 용이해질 수 있으므로 이에 대한 고려와 연구가 요구되며, 둘째, 한국에서 제작되고 있는 각종의 수치지도들은 방대한 정보들을 포함하고 있어 제작기간이 길고 갱신상의 어려움이 존재하므로 센서스만을 위한 간결한 수치지도를 간략히 개편하여 활용하여도 좋다고 보며, 셋째, 센서스자료의 기본발표단위를 현재의 읍, 면, 동 보다 좀더 세분화된 센서스트랙과 블락그룹 등으로 지정하여야 자료의 유용도가 높아질 것으로 본다. 이들 경계선응 현재 인구주택총조사에 쓰이고 있는 조사구의 경계와 근린주구 이론과 아울러 여러 가지 물리적, 사회적, 경제적, 행정적 요소들을 감안하여 결정하는데, 한 개의 센서스트랙에 인구를 4,000명 정도로 하고 블락그룹은 1,500명 정도로 하되, 한 개의 센서스트랙에 1-9개의 블락그룹이 탄력성 있게 포함되도록 하면 좋을 것으로 본다.

Digital maps produced in Korea are various in scale and include a lot of geographic and attribute data. In this study, it is argued that, to reduce the production cost and the difficulties for renewal, it is necessary to establish the already nationally drawn 1:5,000 scale digital maps as the base maps and simplify them as much as the TIGER files in the U.S. The comprehensive data included in the digital maps in Korea are mostly land use information, which are supposed to be established separately from the digital maps. The land use information system could be maintained and updated cheaply and frequently at the local government level. In response to common needs, the land use information could be imported to GIS and used for analyses. As technologies and societies changes, the Census questions and methodologies should be changed for better uses. Along with GIS, the Census would be developed and processed more reliably and efficiently. Also, it is recommended for Korean government to develop the Census Tract and Block Group system. Current Eup, Myon, Dong as basic units for Census information may not be useful or effective for micro level urban analyses and public service planning activities because of their large population and land areas. It is recommended that optimum population of a Census Tract be 5,000 and a Block Groups 1,500, and one Census Tract includes 1~9 Block Groups. It is recommend that Census Tract and Block Group boundary lines be decided flexibly in light of population, physical features, socio-economic attributes, and tradition. For urban analyses using GIS, socio-economic census data, city government's information such as parcel data and building permit data, survey data, and satellite image data could also be used. The existence of Census Tracts and Block Groups as well as GIS could help for the data and methods to be useful for urban analyses and public service provisions.

The purpose of this study is to show how could GIS along with digital maps and census data be used for scientific urban analysis and location analysis for a proposed project. Results are summarized as follows. First. after digital maps being completed, the census tract system being adopted, and major urban data being inputted in the computer file, GIS could be used intensively for various reliable urban analysis. With graphic statistical, and overlay functions of GIS, various physical and socio-economic characteristics of urban areas could be presented for analysis in the form of thematic and datapoint maps on the computer screen. Second, the locational analysis for a proposed project is a major part in the building permit review process, which tends to become disputable and time consuming as society become pluralized. Along with various GIS functions scientific decision-making methods could be developed, and the methods could play an important role for faster and scientific location analysis. As such, GIS would play an important role for faster and reliable urban analysis and location analysis and these functions finally would play important roles to improve public services and administration of local governments.
