Pollutants discharge modeling was carried out in the watershed of Mankyung and Dongjin rivers. The watershed and pollutants source information extracted and analysed by the GIS tool was used as the model input parameters. This model was calibrated by comparison of the measured and computed monthly freshwater discharge and water quality(WQ) concentration. The compared WQ data are the ten-year-mean WQ concentration and monthly WQ concentration in 1999. The results show that the watershed runoff is underestimated in summer season, although the seasonal trends are relatively well estimated. The WQ concentrations were also relatively well estimated except Iksancheon. The computed concentration was much lower than the observed concentration in Iksancheon because of the effect of polluted sediment. Thus, the effects of polluted sediment on water column need further study through measuring and analysing the degree of the sediment contamination.

Rigorous sensor and dynamic modeling techniques are required if spatial information is to be accurately extracted from video imagery. First, a mathematical model for an uncalibrated video camera and a description of a bundle adjustment with added parameters, for purposes of general block triangulation, is presented. This is followed by the application of invariance-based techniques, with constraints, to derive initial approximations for the camera parameters. Finally, dynamic modeling using the Kalman Filter is discussed. The results of various experiments with real video imagery, which apply the developed techniques, are given.

The damages from the natural disasters, especially from the floods, have been increasing. Therefore, it is imperative to establish a BMP to diminish the damages from the floods and to enhance the welfare of the nation. Developed countries have been generating and utilizing flood risk maps to raise the alertness of the residents, and thereby achieving efficient flood management. The major objectives of this research were to develop a prototype management system for flood risk map to forecast the boundaries oi the inundation and to plot them through the integration of geographic and hydrologic database. For more efficient system development, the user requirement analysis was made. The GIS database design was done based on the results from the research work of river information standardization. A GIS database for the study area was built by using topographic information to support the hydrologic modeling. The developed prototype include several modules; river information edition module, map plotting module, and hydrologic modeling support module. Each module enabled the user to edit graphic and attribute data, to analyze and to represent the modeling results visually. Subjects such as utilization of the system and suggestions for future development were discussed.

Recently, BIM(Building Information Model) is widely applied to all stages of SOC (Social Overhead Capital)facilities life cycle from planning to maintenance. While BIM is an analysis tool focussing the inner space of facilities, GIS is principally applied to analyzing relationship between facilities. Therefore, integrating BIM and GIS, we expect to get a potential synergy effect in aspects of effective information management and various analysis for SOC facilities. This paper deals with prioritizing SOC facilities for applying BIM/GIS integrating platform to local governments. First, investigate facilities required by law, and identify SOC facilities suitable for SOC characteristics. Second, analyze the effectiveness and applicability of BIM/GIS integrating platform applying each facility. For the purpose, we quantify effectiveness and applicability in aspects of UIS management and GIS functions. Lastly, prioritize the SOC facilities applying BIM/GIS integrating platform.

Nowdays the need of modeling a real world using computers leads to increase the importance of GIS. Moreover, the wide spread of the Internet service has brought about Web GIS Development. Especially, the tuning of Web GIS system has a crucial role in improving the performance of high resolution image Web GIS system. Thus, this study provides a variety of ways to improve the performance of high resolution image Web GIS system. We have tuned IBM AIX operation system, Oracle, ArcSDE in the database level and Tomcat, ArcIMS in the application level. What is more, we propose ways of coding which can have a positive impact on performance. As a result, the proposed methods guarantee high resolution image Web GIS system to improve performance.

Recently, the new software paradigm in information technology (IT) is the component-based development (CBD) technology that has brought as a result of the distributed computing environment (DCE). The CBD has reduced a program developing time and has been designed to make a distributed computing environment easier in the Internet and Intranet environments. These changes of software technology have influence on the geographic information system (GIS) and the CBD technology is highly needed as a point of view of the technique and policy of the geographic information system. In this paper, we designed and implemented an Enterprise Server for the efficient development and management of GIS components. Especially, the Enterprise Server was developed with the Enterprise JavaBeans Specification 1.1 that had been proposed as an industry standard by the Sun Microsystems. The Enterprise Server can allows users to manage the Unified Modeling Language (UML) and Design Patterns for the development of GIS components, develop a GIS component container which obeyed the Open Geodata Interoperability Specification (OpenGlS), manage spatial metadata through a spatial XML (eXtensible Markup Language) engine, and implement a TESTBED server for testing and verification of developed GIS components.

In general, topographical phenomena are represented graphically by data in the spatial domain, while attributes of the non-spatial domain are expressed by alpha-numeric texts. GIS functions for analysis of attributes in the non-spatial domain remain quite simple, such as search methods and simple statistical analysis. Recently, graph modeling and network analysis of social phenomena are commonly used for understanding various social events and phenomena. In this study, we applied the network analysis functions to the non-spatial domain data of GIS to enhance the overall spatial analysis. For this purpose, a novel design was presented to integrate the spatial database and the graph database, and this design was then implemented into a WebGIS system for better decision makings. The developed WebGIS with underlying synchronized databases, was tested in a simulated application about the selection of water supply households during an epidemic of the foot-and-mouse disease. The results of this test indicate that the developed WebGIS can contribute to improved decisions by taking into account the social proximity factors as well as geospatial factors.

Recently, GIS has been increasing its applicability in water resource field. The GIS based modeling process can generally be used for extracting channel network and watershed delineation. Through the overlay analysis, the extracted channel network can be overlayed with topographic and landuse maps to generate the input files for running a hydrologic model. This lead to consider GIS as a tool which can include subjective factors of the model designers in hydrologic analysis. Therefore, this study has compared GIS based HEC-GEOHMS with the classical approach. In general, both approaches have similar results, however, HEC-GROHMS has showed some errors. Based on the results, a GIS based approach could be more effective method with better credibility to obtain input parameters from topographic information as subsequent efforts were made to lessen the errors.

This paper reviews the topic of GIS, the academic setting of GIS, GIS model curricula and the possibility GIS education in Korea. The topics which might be included in a science of geographic information consist of data collection and measurement, data capture, spatial statistics, data modeling and theories of spatial data, data structures, algorithms and processes, display, analytical tools, institutional, managerial and ethical issues. The problems in teaching a course on GIS in higher education are reviewed. Because of their technological, integrative, and rapidly changing nature, GIS pose major challenges to their education system which it is ill equipped to meet. In higher education a number of initiatives have been taken to provide education about and training with, GIS. The possible GIS curricula are suggested. These curricula are divided into 3 major sections, relating GIS context, technical issues and application issues. The prospects of GIS appears lo depend largely upon the future cooperation of academia, government, and industry
