The uniqueness of Korean funeral culture has produced the problems such as forest indiscreet cemetery development and increase of cemeteries for those without surveying family due to negligent management. To solve these problems, government and social organization have recommended a use of cremation, charnel house and cemetery. The objective of this study is to develop a cemetery information management system which cemetery managers who are GIS laypersons are able to understand GIS functions easily and use conveniently. Cemetery tasks should be done not only in the office but also at the field. In the office, they perform GIS functions like input, modification and so forth using a desktop. And at the field, they perform the functions like simple input, inquiry using a PDA(Touchscreen) that can receive GPS signal. As various open source softwares were used to build the system, the expense was reduced largely, and we could expect the possibility that it can be utilized in more cemeteries by adding more various functions.

Recent spread of GIS and the increasing demand of spatial data have brought about the development of web GIS. In addition to sharing and mapping spatial data, web GIS is also required to provide spatial analytic functions on the web. The FOSS(free and open source software) can play an important role in developing such a system for web GIS. In this paper, we proposed a web-based system for raster data analysis using map algebra. We employed GRASS as an open source software and implemented the GRASS functionalities on the web using java methods for invocation of server-side commands. Map algebra and AHP were combined for the raster data analysis in our system. For a feasibility test, the landslide susceptibility in South Korea was calculated using rainfall, elevation, slope angle, slope aspect, and soil layers. It is anticipated that our system will be extensible to other web GIS for raster data analysis with GRASS.

최근 GIS 포털에 대한 수요자 요구 사항이 증가하고 있고 기존의 웹 GIS 응용 프로그램 개발 기법과의 연계와 통합이 중요한 연구 주제로 부각되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 공개 소스인 PostgreSQL - PostGIS를 이용하여 GIS 포털 구축을 위한 응용 설계 연구를 수행하였다. PostgreSQL를 데이터베이스 시스템으로 하여 공간 질의 및 분석 기능 등 GIS 기능을 연동시키는 PostGIS는 서버 GIS 엔진으로 점점 활용 가치가 증가하고 있으나 GIS 포털에서 이를 적용한 사례는 현재까지 보고된 바가 거의 없다. 본 응용 설계는 전체 시스템 설계 보다는 주로 포털에서의 인터페이스 부분을 주로 다루고자 하며 시험 구현 프로그램의 라이브러리는 PostGIS의 C Language Interface(LIBPQ)와 OGC library를 이용하여 공간 데이터에 대한 기본 기능을 구현하였다. 본 연구를 통하여 구글, 다음, 네이버 등과 같은 일반 검색 엔진에서 경쟁적으로 제공하는 웹 맵핑 수준에서 위성영상정보와 지도정보 서비스가 보다 체계적으로 웹 GIS 기술과 연계될 수 있는 기반을 마련하고자 한다.

Google Maps have changed the response time of Web-GIS using AJAX technologies. In addition, Google released the Open API named Google Maps API(Application Programming Interface) and it lead to the big paradigm on the Open API, where the SDK(Software Development Kit) and ASP(Application Service Provider) had ruled at the related map market. In short, the Open API has been paradigm-shifting for the web mapping. After this, government, many companies and open source foundations have guided Web-GIS market's growth through releasing the relevant Open APIs. So many comparative analysis on web-mapping API carried out by many researches. However there were no researches that can be applied to our current domestic environments. This paper investigates components of web-mapping API. Then we compare how many components supported and enumerate features for each of those APIs. Finally this paper presents direction of future development of Web Mapping API.

We present our experiences with open-source spatio-temporal database systems for managing and analyzing big astronomical data acquired by wide-field time-domain sky surveys. Considering performance, cost, difficulty, and scalability of the database systems, we conduct comparison studies of open-source spatio-temporal databases such as GeoMesa and PostGIS that are already being used for handling big geographical data. Our experiments include ingesting, indexing, and querying millions or billions of astronomical spatio-temporal data. We choose the public VVV (VISTA Variables in the Via Lactea) catalogs of billions measurements for hundreds of millions objects as the test data. We discuss issues of how these spatio-temporal database systems can be adopted in the astronomy community.

Currently Spatial Data is collected and processed in various methods, and its usability is very high. However, the existing Spatial Data analysis Software usually requires professional knowledge in the collection, refinement, and application of spatial Date, making it difficult to access and apply it. Therefore, this study established a new WebGIS platform with improved accessibility and usability to solve these problems. This platform supports various services such as master map sharing, spatial data generation, automatic coordinate system conversion, WMS issuance, grid generation, and grid analysis. These services increase operational convenience, such as simplifying repetitive tasks and automatically expressing text files. While it is believed that non-experts can easily and conveniently because of them to simplify and express the results. In addition, it is judged to have high accuracy and reliability compared to the analysis results using the existing Open Source-based GIS software.

Recently, there has been growing interest in public participation GIS (Geographic Information System) technology that enables spontaneous public response to increasingly frequent flood and drought events. Accordingly, social and economic demands are increasing on portal services that are designed to help cope with natural hazards such as earthquakes. By focusing on a specific hazard, urban flood, this study designed a prototype of a disaster response portal and its service system. The community map developed in this study is focused on prevention and mitigation of the urban flood damage by analyzing the vulnerable areas, and providing effective means to inspect the roads and sewer systems. By considering the compatibility with VGI (Volunteered Geographic Information) portals, the study created a system environment by employing universally used open-source software programs such as Apache Tomcat, GeoServer, GeoNetwork, and PostgreSQL/PostGIS.

It has been known that torrential rainfall events have been occurring worldwide due to climate change. The accelerated soil erosion has caused negative impacts on water quality and ecosystem of receiving waterbodies. Since soil security issues have been arising in various areas of the world, intensive interests have been given to topsoil management in Korea. Thus in this study, Web GIS-based computing system of physical, chemical, and biological topsoil quality indices were developed. In this study, five soil quality maps at national scale and top soil erosion potential were prepared for evaluation of soil quality based on soil erosion potential. For this system, the open source Web GIS engine, OpenGeo, was used as core engine of the system. With this system, decision makers or related personnel in areas of soil erosion Best Management Practices (BMPs) would be able to find the most appropriate soil erosion BMPs based on soil erosion potential and soil quality at the area of interest. The Web GIS system would be efficiently used in decision making processes because of ease-of-use interface and scientific data used in this system. This Web GIS system would be efficiently used because this system could provide scientific knowledge to decision makers or stakeholders. Currently various BMP database are being built to be used as a decision support system in topsoil management and topsoil quality areas.

Web 2.0 패러다임이 공간정보 처리분야에서 정착되면서 국내외에서 웹 기반의 다양한 공간정보 콘텐츠 서비스가 개발되고 활용되고 있다. 또한 새로운 기술발전 추세에 따라 다양한 공간정보를 효과적으로 처리하기 위한 사용자 중심의 인터페이스 개발도 중요한 연구 주제로 간주되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 현재 KML과 같이 제한적인 웹 표준 공간정보 자료 구조를 주로 다루는 클라이언트 기반의 Web 2.0 웹 컴퓨팅 기법을 보다 확장하여 미들웨어와 연동시키는 계층적 웹 서비스 구조를 설계하고 이를 기반으로 시험구현을 하고자 한다. 본 연구에 적용된 미들웨어는 공개 소스로 제공되는 Deegree를 적용하였으며 클라이언트 모듈 처리는 Google Maps API에서 제공되는 기만 클래스를 채택하였다. 공개 소스 및 공개 API을 적용한 웹 GIS 개발은 시스템 확장성이나 추가 개발에 대한 접근이 용이하므로 수요자의 요구 사항에 즉시 대응할 수 있다는 주요 장점이 있고 본 연구 결과에서도 이러한 점을 강조하고자 한다. 또한 본 연구의 결과인 Geo-Browser는 OQC의 다양한 GIS 국제 표준을 바로 지원하므로 사용자가 기존에 사용하고 있는 GIS 엔진이나 응용 프로그램과도 연동이 가능한 구조로 설계하였다.
