The purpose of this paper is to systemize the spatial studies of logistics industry by arranging the partially scattered current studies on spatial studies of logistics industry overall. Logistics industry now builds a complex spatial organization which has been developed to the stages of independent optimization by materials management and physical distribution providing specialized logistics services, logistics, and supply chain management including IT and management step by step. The complex spatial organization of logistics industry has been systematized with geographical space and virtual space, disintegration and integration, and intermediation and disintermediation. The three areas reported a dynamic characteristic overlapped in space. The dynamic characteristic has a dose relationship with interaction between IT and space of economic activities.

EIASS(Environment Impact Assessment Supporting System) provided the various updated quality environment impact assessment data and the assessment reports through database system to support cost effective and stable services. Through this system users can access environment impact assessment information and have great convenience in their relevant works. This study introduces geo-spatial information usages in EIASS and how this system developed the use of convenience and expansion of service ranges by user surveys. This study also demonstrated step-wise delivery and links on one-stop database inventory for data collection, manipulation, and usages of geo-spatial information among environmental information.

Using geospatial information in the early design phase is crucial because it requires considerable time, money, and effort. We use VWorld, part of the National Spatial Information Distribution system provided by the Korean Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transportation, for providing geospatial information to building designers. We provide methods to adopt VWorld geospatial information to building design and develop plugins for a BIM authoring tool to transform and construct necessary BIM data in a user-friendly format. BIM users are benefitted from extra design information supplied from sibling disciplines such as urban design. GIS users are benefited by feedback building information continuously supplied from building projects based upon standard GIS coordinates. It is clear that an architectural designer with BIM tool can save time and efforts to obtain the geospatial information related a project using the developed system as result of this research.

The Location Based Services comprised GIS and Telecommunication allow users to receive various services based on their geographic location. It is need to legislation to encourage the provision and use of location information by providing privacy protection to users. But the contents of the legislation proposed by Korean government have problems conflicted between protection of a person's location information and invigoration of location-based services. The purpose of this study is to search complementary measures for privacy protection of location information from a viewpoint of effective management strategy for geographic information.

Recently, two international standard organizations, ISO and OGC, have done the work of standardization for GIS. Current standardization work for providing interoperability among GIS DB focuses on the design of open interfaces. But, this work has not considered procedures and methods for designing GIS DB. Eventually, GIS DB has its own model. When we share the data by open interface among heterogeneous GIS DB, differences between models result in the loss of information. Our aim in this paper is to revise the design guidelines for geographic information databases in order to make consistent spatial data models, logical structures, and semantic structure of populated geographical databases. In details, we propose standard guidelines which convert ISO abstract schema into relation model, object-relation model, object-centered model, and geometry-centered model. Furthermore, we provide sample models for applying these guidelines in commercial GIS S/Ws. Building GIS DB based on design guidelines proposed in the paper has the following advantages: the interoperability among databases, the standardization of schema definitions, and the catalogue of GIS databases through.

The main objective of this study is to determine the methodology to increase the practical use of future Marine GIS based on the user's point of view of the analysis of maritime & fishery government agencies's roles. GIS related job duty of two Busan District offices of MOMAF(Ministry of Maritime and Fisheries), NFRDI(National Fisheries Research & Development Institute), Korea Institute of Maritime and Fisheries Technology and marine & fisheries local government offices of Busan Metropolitan city were analyzed for the establishment of MGIS, future extended service targeting user's increased practical utilization. Several suggestions in the area of production mechanism and technical policy for marine geographic information among the government agencies are developed to settle down successfully MGIS in Busan. Furthermore, 10 fields of Marine Geographic issues are rearranged for intending the desirable system and service.

GIS is the tool widely used for the practical solution of spatial problems in every region regardless of the language and ideology. In this paper research trends and tendencies of GIS in North Korea are reviewed compared with those in South Korea. For this purpose, academic publications on GIS in North Korea are surveyed and classified according to main subjects in GIS. Such classification by main subjects of GIS in North Korea are conducted on the basis of the classification of research trends and tendencies of GIS in South Korea. As a result, researches in North Korea are mainly focused upon such fields as geodetic surveying and measurement, map manufacture, atmospheric phenomena, agriculture and disasters, while there are few studies related to such fields as national GIS policy and circulation, GIS education, internet-based GIS, and traffic, to name but a few. Most parts of applied data are based on low and medium resolution image such as meteorological satellite images, Landsat images, and so on. This reflects the low level of the development of GIS DB infrastructure in North Korea.

This research investigates that role of space-based social capital presented in Dapsimni auto-parts shopping area considering Korean auto-parts industry and the regional characteristics of retailing industrial cluster. For this, it went through the process with in-depth interview and surveys of the owner of Dapsimni, social capital of retailing industrial cluster studied using Lin(1999)'s social capital model by separating formation, accessibility and mobilization of it. The result is that auto-part sellers in Dapsimni make themselves space-based social capital, which provides the profit from certain area: strengthening auto-parts of transaction cost and information exchange among them, creating new market for selling auto-parts. This meant that main factor sustaining the characteristic of retailing industrial cluster despite gradually decline of its role.

Many countries in the world have already begun digitizing spatial objects and features located in either above -or under- ground in order to conduct various spatial analyses including disaster prevention planning. At the same time, the amount of information to be exchanged will be astronomical once the information super highways will be completed to connect many countries in the world Ways to exchange and transfer of spatial information. efficiently will have to be developed in order to avoid duplicated efforts and money and to maximize the use of spatial information 1hat has already been collected. One way to maximize the efficiency in sharing spatial information is to develop a transfer standard. thus, the purpose of this paper is to review spatial data transfer standard(SDTS) with the hope that it would shed light on the development of a transfer standard for Korea

Korea, China and Japan are in great demand for each other’s science and technology information since they geographically lie adjacent and have common interest in a variety of science and technology fields. Yet, they have difficulties in obtaining the other two countries’ information due to the lack of an appropriate system to access the information and also to restrictions such as a language barrier. The purpose of this study is to suggest the ways of sharing science and technology information among Korea, Japan and China. It surveys the national science and technology information systems and policies of each country and proposes four stages of resource sharing.
