This study aims to develop a set of criteria for evaluating the sustainability of forest landuse, which could facilitate the environmentally friendly development of forest lands in Korea. The concept of sustainable development in forest landuse was reviewed from literature and by interviews with experts in forest-related fields. Delphi technique was employed for gathering experts' opinions. According to the results of Delphi test, the concept of sustainable development in forest landuse was confirmed as "Use of forest lands in a lasting manner within the carrying capacity of the ecosystem involved". There are 16 factors which should be considered with care when the development of forest lands is planned. They include the ratio of forest cover left undeveloped, ecological stability, and landscape naturalness. Among them are the ecological factors rated most important. The experts emphasized the importance of local characteristics in setting up the criteria for sustainable forestland development. The study did not attempted to apply the criteria to real settings. Therefore, before applications in real situations, further case studies should be made for the criteria to be safely used in landuse planning.

Landuse information is used to plan land use, urban and environmental management as base data. And, demand for landuse information is rising due to ecological consideration in urban area. But existing method to extract landuse information from aerial photographs or satellite images is difficulte to describe sufficient urban landuses. Also landuse information need to be linked with statistical data because statistical data is used to make decision for urban planning and management with landuse. Therefore this study aims to examine the landuse classification method using statistical unit data and 1:1,000 digital topographic data. for the purpose, the method was applied to a part of metropolitan Seoul. The results of study shows that total accuracy is 95%. For the future, the method will be effectively applicable for the city maintenance.

This study analyzes the problems of environmental laws, development planning laws, Metropolitan Area Development Planning(MADP), and the level of environmental pollution at Pusan and Asan-Bay Metropolitan Area where MADP will be realized in the near future. In order to prevent the environmental pollution by realization of MADP, Environmental Impact Assessment Act and environmental impact assessment systems in Korea should be revised so as to reflect the followings. First, the impact of national landuse planning change on the environment should be considered at the beginning of environmental impact assessment procedures. Second, the overlapping and greater impact of many projects, whose part is the subject of environmental impact assessment, upon surrounding metropolitan area should be simultaneously evaluated and the environmental pollution protection and abatement alternatives must be made according to the above impact of the projects. Thirdly, total effluent regulation of water pollution, air pollution and solid wastes should be enforced based on the self-purification of the metropolitan area environment.

The purpose of the study is to analyze the existing situation of the green buffer zone in the large scale industrial site and other major residential apartment areas. In this study, it is specifically intended that the planning guideline be upgraded to adopt future landuse trends and thus to suggest design criteria for management of the buffer zone. The framework of the analysis is to review the current landuse, noise reduction, ecological implications and landscape in general. Although the major function of a green buffer zone is considered to protect the residential area from various hazards of industrial, traffic, and visual environment, the situation is that most of the zones are maintained at a minimum level of services by local government. The study carried out intensively almost every type of case studied throughout the country, which implies that the management of the green buffer zone should be expanded physically enough to function for its original objectives. The study recommends that ecological management of the green buffer zone be emphasized and therefore the criteria for this purpose as well as noise issue should be developed prior to the landuse aspects. The study suggests specific guidelines for planning and design for the green buffer zone development. This study should be verified positively through the sustainable monitoring and requires nationwide and overall examination so that it may be applied to whole green spaces.

Landuse information is used to plan land use, urban and environmental management as base data. And, demand for landuse information is rising due to ecological consideration. But existing method to extract landuse information from aerial photographs or field survey is consume a lot of time and cost. In urban area where the pattern of landuse is densely aggregated, a landuse information needs to be classified in detail for urban planning and management. Therefore this study aims to examine the method to extract landuse information in detail from 1:1,000 digital topographic data. For the purpose, the method was applied to a part of metropolitan Seoul. The results of study shows that extraction of landuse information except forest area is possible. Forest area is needed to describe smaller spatial unit. For the future, the method of describing forest area is improved it will be effectively applicable for the city maintenance.

The methods of landuse change detection have been used with the algorithm of GIS (Geographic Information System). It is used for the Environmental Planning. Ultimately, it is useful to establish environment management system in landscape architecture. As one of environmental elements, the landuse is repeatedly being changed by the interaction of natural and social environments. In addition, the landuse change shows a tendency to certain characteristic. However, the data of analysis environment system are too broad to access the practical use. Therefore, the possibility of using the method of GIS has been increasing. This study is to make the prediction model by using the interpolation of GRASS version 4.1.5 and to consider about a tendency for each element in landuse change of HAKONE national park. The results of study explain as below : 1. The natural forest and the meadow have a larger tendency of decrease. 2. The area of golf club and facility land has not been changed and the some other areas have been changed to the commercial forest. 3. However, because of the natural forest preservation plan since 1970, the destruction shows comprehensively a tendency of decrease.

In this study, we deduced the best estimation methodology for amount of carbon sequestration by vegetation, through the case study using the data obtainable from the environmental assessment procedure. Our results showed that the estimation methodology using the national vegetation map was the best for the strategic environmental assessment, whileas those using the vegetation growth equation were applicable for environmental impact assessment procedure. Furthermore, we found that the amount of carbon sequestration by farmland and/or grassland, not by vegetation, was not negligible. Therefore, we concluded that the area of farmland and/or grassland need to be taken into account during the landuse planning.

The Zone-Based. landuse Information System(ZBLIS) is an useful information system for city administrators and researchers for planning and analysis. The purpose of this study is to establish concept and methodology of the ZBLIS. The concept of Planning Analysis Zone(PAZ), as a basic unit of analysis, was defined to establish the ZBLIS. Then, various PAZs were suggested through a case study of Pohang city. Also, various useful attribute data were recommended in this study for ZBLIS. Digital Maps were used to establish ZBLIS. Among 730 subcategory items in the Digital Maps, some necessary items were selected for ZBLIS. A 84 items was recommended to be use of the ZBLIS. And 250 more items were recommended for more detailed analysis of the ZBLIS. While previous studies of landuse infonnatiom systems have focused on establishing Parcel-based Landuse Infonnation Systems, it is meaningful that this study is trying to recognize the significance of the ZBLIS and suggest the concept and methodology of the ZBLIS.

Although development density control has received murk attention in urban planning, there has been little research on empirical methods that can examine local changes in development density. Recently, attempts have been made to develop cellular automata (CA) models that can be applied to urban landuse change. This paper aims to develop an extended landuse change model based on urban CA considering development density. The proposed model not only includes density control component in a model framework, but also directly estimates local density changes in land use. The developed model was applied to the study area, which was a part of central Seoul. The calibration of the model was carried out over the period $1900s\sim2000s$ using parcel-based land use data and related variables The results of the calibrated model have been tested by comparison with actual landuse data, and have demonstrated that the developed model can produce realistic simulations of urban landuse changes. But model output is dependent on the spacio-temporal resolution of input data. Further research is necessary to improve the calibration procedure and methods for evaluating model validity.
