Web-based map services provide various geographic information that users want to get by continuous updating of data. Those map services provide different information for a geographic object respectively. It causes several problems, and most of all various information cannot be integrated and provided. To resolve the problem, this paper proposes a system which can integrate diverse geographic information and provide users rich geographic information. In this paper, a hybrid schema matching (HSM) algorithm is proposed and the algorithm is a mixture of the adapter-based semantic processing method, static semantic management-based approach, and dynamic semantic management-based approach. A comparative evaluation is described to show effectiveness of the proposed algorithm. The proposed algorithm in this paper improves the accuracy of schema matching because of registration and management of schemas of new semantic information. The proposal enables vocabulary-based schema matching using various schemas, and it thus also supports high usability. Finally, the proposed algorithm is cost-effective by providing the progressive extension of relationships between schema meanings.

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.

The planning process for roadway construction involves a large amount of information on design, construction methods, quantities, unit costs, production rates, and site conditions. Therefore, it is very important to acquire, manage, and process the necessary information efficiently to produce a rigorous construction plan. GIS (Geographic Information System) is a very effective tool for integrating and managing various types of information including spatial and non-spatial data required for roadway construction planning. This paper proposes a GIS-based system for improving roadway construction planning with its 'Interactive Space Scheduling' and 'Operation Level Planning' functions. The proposed system can assist construction planners in a unique way by integrating design and construction information and creating modularized design elements for space scheduling in real time. It is expected that the proposed system could improve the efficiency of roadway construction planning.

The study of Web GUI(Graphic User Information) system for Virtual Reality System is mainly performed on effective methodology which transform real world data to computing world data. MGIS(Marine Geographic Information System) has its own target on reliable data service by acquisition of geometric information using accurate measurement and graphical visualization. This type of raw data visualization can be built without software tools, yet is incredibly useful for interpreting and communicating data. Even simple visualizations can aid in the interpretation of complex 3D relationships that are frequently encountered in the geosciences. The Virtual Reality Modeling Language provides an easy way for geoscientists to construct complex visualizations that can be viewed with free software. This study propose a three dimensional Web GUI system using MGIS-based three dimensional data models and virtual imaging system. Finally, we design a Web GUI system integrating above data models.

For a proper use of the integrated real estate information, there must be a process on linking the information of buildings and land data. This study aims to enhance the location information of the buildings on the digital topographic map by assigning the coordinates on the building layout plan of the Building Registers which does not have a positional information based on the cadastral boundary of the cadastral map. Also, the land and building attribute information are managed in various official registers and systems which are overlapped each other. The overlapped information must be corrected based on legislation. Therefore this study introduces a comprehensive attribute information excluding any overlapped information. In other words, this study proposes a single advanced real estate information by integrating the attribute information and the separated real estate information(buildings and land).

Recent cohort studies have relied on exposure prediction models to estimate individual-level air pollution concentrations because individual air pollution measurements are not available for cohort locations. For such prediction models, geographic variables related to pollution sources are important inputs. We demonstrated the computation process of geographic variables mostly recorded in 2010 at regulatory air pollution monitoring sites in South Korea. On the basis of previous studies, we finalized a list of 313 geographic variables related to air pollution sources in eight categories including traffic, demographic characteristics, land use, transportation facilities, physical geography, emissions, vegetation, and altitude. We then obtained data from different sources such as the Statistics Geographic Information Service and Korean Transport Database. After integrating all available data to a single database by matching coordinate systems and converting non-spatial data to spatial data, we computed geographic variables at 294 regulatory monitoring sites in South Korea. The data integration and variable computation were performed by using ArcGIS version 10.2 (ESRI Inc., Redlands, CA, USA). For traffic, we computed the distances to the nearest roads and the sums of road lengths within different sizes of circular buffers. In addition, we calculated the numbers of residents, households, housing buildings, companies, and employees within the buffers. The percentages of areas for different types of land use compared to total areas were calculated within the buffers. For transportation facilities and physical geography, we computed the distances to the closest public transportation depots and the boundary lines. The vegetation index and altitude were estimated at a given location by using satellite data. The summary statistics of geographic variables in Seoul across monitoring sites showed different patterns between urban background and urban roadside sites. This study provided practical knowledge on the computation process of geographic variables in South Korea, which will improve air pollution prediction models and contribute to subsequent health analyses.

Recently in order to extinguish the large scale of forest fire efficiently and rapidly the forest fire extinguishment equipment such as helicopters and vehicles has been mobilized. In this situation, the most consideration for the effective extinguishment is to understand the forest fire surrounding area and situation very well and arrange and manage the extinguishment equipment timely. In this paper, the client/serve-based forest fire extinguishment helicopter management system was constructed by integrating GPS(global positioning system) and GIS(geographic information system) technologies. This system manages and considers not only extinguishment equipment information such as helicopters and vehicles including manpower arrangement but also extinguishment environment information such as storing reservoir status and road situation and so on. For this, the real time tracking of helicopter location was first acquired through GPS technology then all the information about forest fire surrounding area was offered through the user-friendly interface of GIS concept. The result of constructing this system helps to extinguish a large scale of forest fire rapidly and effectively within shorter time then reduces physical damage and much manpower mobilization.

Owing to the higher temporal resolution, meteorological satellite data is widely used to monitor the disasters happened on the earth's surface. However, the precision of identifying disaster information is limited by the poor spatial resolution. As known, GIS technology is good at processing and analyzing the geographic information. The result shows, integrating with GIS technology, the ability of monitoring forest fire using meteorological satellite data has been greatly improved.

This paper considers a door-to-door service system in which pickups or deliveries are performed by a trip of a single vehicle. Each customer request specifies the quantity of the load transported, the location, and the time window within which it is to be picked up or delivered. Since the system is demand responsive, i.e., new or emergent requests become available in real-time, the current vehicle route has to be reconstructed to include these requests. In this case, only continuous vehicle tracking enables control over the requests and ensures that the requests are satisfied on time. This paper suggests a pilot pickup/delivery management system integrating a geographic information system(GIS) and a global position system(GPS) to efficiently deal with such a dynamic environment. The GIS offers a way of displaying the vehicle route on digital maps for the region under concerned. Also displayed is the current location of the vehicle obtained from the GPS. A heuristic algorithm is used to dynamically determine the vehicle route. A practical example is provided to show the feasibility of the system.
