In this paper, we describe two exploratory examples in the use of Augmented Reality (AR) for geographical visualization regarding refinement of visual content in geography textbooks and learning motivation of geography students. Currently, teaching and learning materials with AR technology and their utilization in the geography classroom have become a new topic in geographical research themes, and this trend has increased. Adequate development and utilization of geographical materials is an important starting point for smart education research in geography. This paper describes the system and software, and the implication of marker AR applications for teaching and learning geography in the classroom. For the AR applications to be utilized in geography education, two marker based AR examples, virtual globe and visualization of topographical features, are presented and their utilization aspects are discussed. Finally, from the discussion stated in this paper, it can be inferred that AR is useful for exploring geographical materials, and marker based AR will contribute to progress in spatial science and geographical education research.

Geographical travel(Geotravel) is new theme tourism based on geographical fieldwork. Geotravel is an emotional journey to explore physical and human landscapes, and is also a comprehensive environmental one beyond the scope of historical tourism. Geotravel provides an optimized regional content and programs for experiential tourism of the family. Taking advantage of geographical characteristics as spatial tourism, the geotravel methodology in catchment unit is strongly recommended. The geotravel content has to be developed in convergence standpoint. The integrated key words of geotravel are human and water. Geotravel is a pattern of specialized edutainment tourism for the public and elementary, secondary school students as well. The development of geographical travel courses is necessary for the popularization of geotravel. Mobile apps will be the medium that delivers easy geographical travel information. And geotravel curator has to be raised quickly for the generalized easy and interesting geotravel.

It was investigated to develop the contents for the local government for the purpose of providing various and correct information. Especially it was focused to take advantage spatial information techniques, Geographic Information Systems and Remote Sensing. The research site for this study was Muan-gun located at the south-western part of Korea and this site has very high opportunities to became the central point for the economical and tourist industry. The regional information contents for Muan-gun was developed and composed of three elements； internet related, geographic information related and satellite image related elements. These contents will make a contribution for the local government to present the regional information effectively and efficiently.

Coastal cities need disaster planning that accounts for the complex causes of environmental disasters such as high tides or tsunamis generated by typhoons, and of river or lowland flooding caused by heavy rains, etc. The elements of the disaster map were initially defined using a Geographic Information System (GIS) to allow for efficient information management. Complex disaster information elements were thus established in this study to create a disaster map of coastal cities. The range of information required for coastal cities includes the type of disaster, evacuation methods, available sheltering facilities, and learning content. These informational elements are intended to build on spatial information based on data available from the Ministry of Public Safety and Security as well as local governments.

현재 웹은 단순히 정보를 수집하여 제공하던 웹 1.0을 지나 정보의 사용자가 곧 생산자가 되어 개방된 웹 환경을 기반으로 사용자 스스로 콘텐츠를 제작, 재창조, 공유하는 인터넷 서비스 모델인 웹 2.0으로 발전하였다. 이러한 웹의 발전 과정에서 시맨틱 웹이 등장하게 되었고 시맨틱 웹이 지리 정보와 접목되어 시맨틱 지리 정보 시스템이 등장하게 되었다. 기존 지리 정보 시스템에서는 사용자들이 국한된 정보만을 제공받아 왔지만 웹이 발전하고 수많은 콘텐츠가 생성되면서 웹의 데이터를 지리 정보 시스템과 연결시켜서 사용자에게 풍부한 정보를 제공 할 수 있는 시스템이 연구, 개발되고 있다. 하지만 기존 연구들은 사용자가 시스템에 접속하여 비공간 정보를 입력해야 하는 특정 시스템에 종속적이라는 단점을 가지고 있어 시맨틱 웹에서 지향하는 풍부한 서비스 제공에 어려움을 격고 있다. 따라서 이 논문에서는 웹 자원을 정의된 지리정보 온톨로지(Geo-Ontology)의 인스턴스로 추가하여 지리 정보 시스템의 비공간 정보를 확장함으로써 특정 시스템에 종속적이지 않고 사용자에게 보다 풍부한 서비스를 제공하기 위한 모델을 제안하고 프로토타입을 구현한다.

With the rapid development of computer, information and communication technologies, the production and distribution of digital contents among various kinds of networks have become more common. In such environment, we need to store and to manage efficiently a large volume of geograpruc data because the amount of geographic data grows faster and faster. In this paper, as a key solution to manage efficiently such a huge amount of geograpruc data, we adopt the mechanism which compresses only the difference between original and updated data with high compression ratio. By transferring highly compressed updated part only instead of the entire of geographic data, we can reduce the network traffic during the download of contents and service.

This paper will show examples and methods of spatial relationship operations that extract spatial information from satellite images. Geographical information system phenomena of complex and variant real world can abstract and implement simple features. The abstract features classify geo_objects and geo_field. The geo_object and the geo_field can represent vector and raster respectively. The raster based satellite image can use remote sensing applications. This paper needs topology operations and geometric operations for extracting the remote sensing. The spatial information transforms the raster based image to the vector based object, and extract from the spatial information. The extracted information will contribute on the application of the remote sensing satellite images.
