There are not enough information and service in current e-government practice because it only relier on text based information services. To make e-government more attractive and successful, scope of information and service should be broaden. To do so, GIS is necessary in the development process of e-government. This paper aims at exploring theories and technologies related to e-government and suggesting strategies for developing GIS based local e-government. In this paper, we particularly pay attention to the role of GIS for local e-government. Since many of local government data has spatial components, we believe that GIS would play a crucial role in developing local e-government. Thus, this paper tries to examine how GIS contribute to successful implementation of e-government. Then, it attempts to build a developmental model for GIS based e-government. Finally, it suggests strategies and policy measures for each development stage.

Geospatial information and technologies are considered as a fundamental element in the foreign advanced e-governments. Integration of e-Government and GIS technology should be an important task for the Korean e-government. Purpose of this study is to propose integration strategies for Korean e-Government and National GIS projects in a GIS perspective. For the successful integration this study analyzes the evolutional stages of e-Government and changes of GIS paradigms in a more comprehensive way. This study hypothesizes that integration of e-Government and GIS can create greater synergic effects fur the improved citizen services and increased efficiency of governmental administration. To verify the hypothesis, cases of advanced e-Governments in the foreign countries and progress of the Korean e-Government projects are compared and integration strategies are suggested. The strategies are as follows: expanded integration of geospatial and text-based information in e-Government for the greater synergic effects, implementation of GIS portal for e-Government, and development of a variety of geospatial information services for easy access and public participation. Most importantly, innovation of the institutional environments can be considered as an essential requirement to enhance and broaden interdepartmental partnerships. To realize the integration strategies suggested, this study presented the future projects under the following 5 topics: 'service', 'integration of information', 'technology', 'organization' and 'infrastructure for integration'. It is expected that results of this study can contribute to the bigger picture of Korean e-Government and the third National GIS master plan in 2006.

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.

GIS has been rapidly developed since 1995 when the Ministry of Construction and Transportation started the First National GIS Construction Project and built large scale topographic map at local governments level. From that time local governments have been built several application system such as road management system, waterworks management system, sewer management system, underground facilities management system, and urban planning information system, etc. However, the construction of GIS application system at different department level brings the problem of data sharing and overlapping database construction. To overcome this environment Enterprise GIS concepts has been introduced. In case of Seoul Metropolitan government Spatial Data Warehouse have been constructed. However, Seoul Metropolitan government still have the problem of inactive use of GIS system and adaption to the rapidly changing information environment. This study aims to present Strategic plan to uggrade Enterprise GIS concenpt from data centric to service centric architecture at local government level.

The purpose of this study is to find the policy implications for carrying out the 3D GIS in local governments. For this, we made up questions to the local officials related to GIS in local governments and analyzed the questions by the hierarchy of local government. As the result of this, we found that the recognition about 3D GIS concept and the necessity of 3D GIS development was shown at the high rate without the hierarchy, but 3D GIS construction and propulsion was differently shown by the hierarchy. In conclusion, we found it was necessary to develop the 3D GIS with the different approach by the hierarchy of the local government. Especially, the 3D GIS applications has to be focussed on the improvements of the existing GIS in local government. In carrying out the 3D GIS, the support programs considered the local government's peculiarity should have to accompany.

The Ministry of Construction and local governments have spent lots of money to construct 1: 1,000 scale digital topographic map. However the digital map is used only in facility management departments and the department in charge of GIS. In local governments, almost 70 ∼ 80 % of data are related with maps, which represents GIS technique and the digital maps could be used 70 ∼ 80 % of local government tasks. In this circumstances, it is necessary to spread out GIS usage through GIS education. However, there are lots of limits in GIS education such as number of people which can take classes at one time, physical location and size of classroom, and curriculums etc. To overcome these limits, cyber GIS education is becoming more important. This study presents how the cyber GIS education should be composed for the local government officers. For this purpose, this study accomplished followings ; grasp current GIS education status, analyze the needs of GIS education for local government officers, propose cyber GIS courses and curriculums according to the level of officers.

Seoul metropolitan government has produced fundamental digital map products and developed various GIS applications for years according to the GIS implementation plan established in 1995. However, the city's recent organization restructuring and prioritized large scale database construction projects for unemployed workers have changed the original GIS implementation schedule. The information strategy plan for the Seoul metropolitan government that represents development and use of common organization -wide database and seeks for providing high quality information services for citizens also require reestablishing the city's GIS implementation strategy. This paper discusses a new implementation strategy and suggests conceptual system architecture for the Seoul metropolitan government's GIS in order to implement a comprehensive urban information system(UIS) based on contemporary GIS technologies.

Local government needs to an official document to conserve and manage its assets under the control of it by performing public duties. The central government adopted double entry bookkeeping in January of 2007 is demanding that local government should make reports of asset management that are related to assets and debts by using double entry bookkeeping. It is also imperative to assess assets of local government's public facilities in order to adopt double entry bookkeeping. But it is hard to exactly inspect some facilities that are constructed underground. In case of Geoje City, this study also found out that $70{\sim}80%$ of the clauses about facilities such as road and water supply in GIS database can be applied fur assessing assets by double entry bookkeeping. Due to the weak connection between double entry bookkeeping and GIS database, local governments have to make more study in order to practically use double entry bookkeeping system.

In the Recent rapidly changing technology environment the computerization of administration business which is driven or will be driven to give improved information services to people by local government or central government with a huge budget. The possibility of applying GIS application component to the computerization of administration business is investigated to prevent local government from investing redundant money and to reuse the existing investment at this point of time. Land civil service application component was developed at the $\ulcorner Development of Open GIS Component S/W \lrcorner$ project which was managed by Ministry of Information and Communication . GIS application component was based on Open GIS OLE/COM specification for development of standard interface and USD(Unified System Development ) for development method and UML (Unified Modeling Language) for system design and Visual C++ for component implementation. Implemented components were Process Control, Map, Print, Statistics component and were verified by using Visual Basic and Delhi. tis study shows that the development of component is very useful at the GIS application development for local governments. But the standard of business and data and system is the essential prerequisite to maximize business application.

Hsinchu Science Park, one of the most productive electronic sites in the world, is located at Hsinchu County. Hsinchu County Government is entitled for daily management to pursue the objectives of making every county citizen prosperous. Several web-based management information systems have been developed for county management and were widely implemented. However, forest management is one of several tasks which need development of web-based geographic information systems. The objectives of this paper are to develop GIS for forest management at Hsinchu County in order to solve problems encountered in the rapid changing circumstance. The objectives of forest management at Hsinchu County have been changed a little bit in the last decade. Now, it mainly focuses on public and private forest, tree planting, wind break forest management, and plane forest planting. The major ingredients of GIS for forest management are user-friendly, task-oriented, and direct linking to the existing GIS at Hsinchu County. AreIMS and ArcGIS were used for web-based GIS. Field operations of forest management depend on PDA and GPS such that ArcPAD is implemented both on personal computers and PDA. Computer programming is required for database management and development of application modules in forest management. Color digital orthophoto maps at scale of 1:5000 provide very useful background information. Forest management at Hsinchu County now is operated in an efficient way that GIS, remote sensing, GPS and PDA are working smoothly.
