A tool to assist in designing an eco-village was developed using GIS(Geographical Information System) and RS(Remote Sensing) data and images. The difficulties of using GIS by untrained designers are resolved by simplifying the usage and making it a user friendly scenario-based tool, so that the designers with limited knowledge in GIS can use as a design tool. For this task, Da-Mu-Po, a village in Pohang, Gyeongbuk was picked as a site to test the design tool; through planning and designing as an eco friendly village, we tested the flexibility and usability of our newly developed design tool. From this experiment we also introduced test version of stand-alone GIS design tool by constructing program scenario and GUI(Graphic User Interface).

In this forest fire experiment the ThermoViewer was set up on the platform built on a tree and observed the temperature change, before, during and after the fire. The fire experiment had been carried out not only the day of the forest fire experiment but also continued for four months after the forest fire had been gone. The results from the experiment showed that the temperature difference is significant in the afternoon; therefore, afternoon satellite passing is better and suitable time for active forest fires and burnt scars detection; moreover, after 83 days, the burnt and un-burnt vegetation become almost the same condition, fully regenerated and the temperature difference become nearly 0$^{\circ}$ Celsius, so there is not enough temperature different between burnt and un-burnt vegetation for current sensors to distinguish the difference anymore.

To improve the reusability and interoperability of GIS components, we propose the registration/retrieval agents, which can search the locating of users' frequently used components in not only the GIS domain but also other spatial information technologies such as GPS, ITS, RS and FM. The registration/retrieval agents increase the reusability through the GIS component based development under distributed GIS components environment and enables the rapid setting of application on the web. Moreover, users can understand easily the information of GIS component and have the effective investment, timeliness and reliability while they have less maintenance effort by agent. In order to design and implement this system on web, HTML and ASP (Active Serve Page), and JAVA were used. In addition, the performance of this system was verified through comparing others, which are similar to.

Geographic Information Systems (GIS) is considered to be one of the most important technologies provided by the Internet in our era. GIS enables institutions and individuals to plan and make decisions in many fields. GIS assists in accessing new and updated information on planning process. GIS also enables determining distances such as length, width, area on a map, and allows analyzing and processing a large amount of data for the search of geographical characteristics of locations. This paper explains the concept of dispensing prescription through the specific code of drug on an electronic system using GIS technology. The proposed methodology aims to inform patients of all the prescriptions dispensed and to help individuals inquiring about prescription at the nearest pharmacy through GIS technology. This proposed methodology is considered significant in some cases, as the patient does not know price, specifications and pharmacy location where the drug required is available, thus increasing the time and effort cost that is spent searching for the prescription.

This study deals with the spatio-temporal change of land cover and vegetation distribution between 1988 and 2001 using remote sensing images and CIS techniques in west area of Pyeongbuk Province, northwest Korea. Landsat TM and ETM images are geometrically and radiometrically corrected for the analysis of land cover and NDVI. Forested areas are decreased during 13 year from 1988 to 2001 in study area including Sakju, Daegwan, Guseong and Euiju of Pyeongbuk Province, because wasteland are increased by human impact and denuded land by landslide and flooding. DEM analysis presents that settlement and cropland are developed toward higher and steeper mountain slope, together with decrease NDIV values. these changes have resulted from unplanned increase of cropland without consideration of geomorphic condition. Therefore, more researches and reasonable policies are required to protect forest and cropland and stable food supply against natural hazard like landslide.

Accurate estimation of evapotranspiration is mightily important for understanding and analyzing the hydrological cycle. There are various methods for estimating evapotranspiration and each method has its own advantages and limitations. Therefore, it is necessary to develop an optimal evapotranspiration product by combing different evapotranspiration products. In this study, we developed an optimal evapotranspiration by fusing two satellite- and model-based evapotranspiration estimates, including revised remote sensing-based Penman-Monteith (RS-PM) and Modified Satellite-Based Priestley-Taylor (MS-PT) methods, Global Land Data Assimilation System (GLDAS), and Global Land Evaporation Amsterdam Model (GLEAM). The statistical analysis (i.e., correlation coefficients, index of agreement, MAE, and RMSE) of combined evapotranspiration product showed to be improved compared to the individual model results. After confirming the overall results, in future studies, advanced data fusion techniques will be used to obtained improved results.

EIA(Environmental Impact Assessment) was introduced in 1979 by our gorvernment to cope with serious environmental problems. Recently environmental pollution has been controlled severely than ever because pollution phenomena became more comlpicated and arrcordingly the damage more terrible. For the EIA system to achieve its goal effectively, systematic and scientific approach should be found out. For this reason the techniqes such as GIS(Geographic Information System) and RS(Remote Sensing) come to front strongly. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the application techniqes of GIS and RS to the EIA system. Haw-Won Myen, Hae-Nam Gun, Chun-Nam and its related area, which will be developed to be a sightseeing area, were selected as the study area. Applications of GIS resulted some important outcome such as earthwork calculations, landuse models, aspect maps, stability of slanting surfaces, elevation models, estimation of real estates, etc. GIS applied EIA proved to be very useful for the project managers and planners to plan, evaluate, judge the enviormental problems.

This study investigates to detect Sea Surface Temperature (SST) and land cover change after tide embankment construction using Landsat Thematic Mapper (TM) Thermal Infrared (TIR) band data at Shihwa Lake and surrounding area. SST measurement is important for studies of both the structure of the ocean and as the thermal boundary between the ocean and the atmosphere. Since 1970s, the derivation of SST by satellite remote sensing (RS) has been applied to earth surface using Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) and Landsat TM. However, AVHRR has restriction in deriving SST in the area whose shoreline is complicated like western coast in South Korea because of coarse spatial resolution. The TIR band of TM images can be used to detect SST change whose shoreline is complicated and narrow like the study site. Thus, multi-temporal TM images were used for SST change detection in this study.

Many studies states that improperly uprising of infrastructure may cause leading the forest degradation and canopy reduction in many tropical forest of Asian countries. Other studies revealed that habitat destruction and fragmentation, edge effects, exotic species invasions, pollution are provoked by roads. Similarly, environmental effects of road construction in forests are problematic. Similarly, many researches have been indicated that roads have a far greater impact on forests than simply allowing greater access for human use. Moreover, people using river as means of transportation hence illegal logging and felling cause canopy depletion in many countries. Therefore, it is important to comprehend the study about spatial relation of road, river and suburb followed by temporal change of forest canopy phenomena. This study also tried to examine the effect of road, river and suburb in forest canopy density change of Terai forest of Nepal from you 1988 to 2001. So, Landsat TM88, 92 and 001 and FCD (Forest Canopy Density) mapper were used to perform the spatial .elation of canopy density change. ILWIS (Integrated Land and Water Information System) which is GIS software and compatible with remote sensing data was used to execute analysis and visualize the results. Study found that influence of distance to suburb and river had statistically significance influenced in canopy change. Though road also influenced canopy density much but didn't show a statistical relation. It can be concluded from this research that understanding of spatial relation of factors respect with canopy change is quite complex phenomena unless detail analysis of surrounding environment. Hence, it is better to carry out comprehensive analysis with other additional factors such as biophysical, anthropogenic, social, and institutional factors for proper approach of their effect on canopy change.
