This study, by focusing on the concept of accessibility to the central city, analyses its importance for understanding baward regions and aims to investigate a new spatial strategy for developing backward regions in Korea. The study investigates the EU accessibility case study and formulates the methodological framework for the analysis, which is applied to the case of Jeonnam-do and Gyeongbuk-do in order to evaluate the backwardness of the regions in terms of the accessibility to the central city. Finally, this paper discusses a new spatial strategy for developing backward regions based on the concept of the accessibility to the central city, which includes the creative expansion of rural public services and promoting efficient delivery system, improving public and private service provision through the accessibility to the central city and securing long-term development potential through investing in regional human capital.

According to the NGIS (National Geographic Information System) project conducted since 1995, the central and local government has been accumulating huge amount of geospatial data. Korean Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport started its GeoSpatial open platform (V-World) service in January 2012, also offering a wide range of functions and services. However, the National GeoSpatial open platform is still woefully deficient for the users to find their desired data, lack of data for private business area, insufficient in publicity of local government and public-private partnerships. Through analyzing current research trend after GeoSpatial open platform served for three years, study on overseas expansion, system links, service improvement, utilization and future strategy has been mainly conducted. This study, by analyzing the advanced overseas GeoSpatial platform as well as domestic research trend and combining the concept of new technology, business platform and SMG (Seoul Metropolitan Government)'s GeoSpatial platform, proposes a policy for the construction of future GeoSpatial Open Platform model.

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.

This paper reviews the strategy of activating spatial data community and its impacts, focusing on the Cooperative Agreements Program(CAP) of National Spatial Data Infrastructure(NSDI), established by Federal Geographic Data Committee(FGDC) in U.S. to facilitate cooperative data sharing. After thoroughly reviewing the 20 research categories followed by 350 cases, supported by CAP for the last decade, it turned out that since NSDI issued "Future Directions Initiative" in 2004, the CAP adopted all components of NSDI as CAP categories in attempting to reinforce the partnership rather than mainly deploying standardized meta-data. Also, CAP has been utilized as a means to enforce the role of NSDI as spatial data user and provider as well, recognizing that the spatial data community is essence for expandable and sustainable NSDI. Implementing CAP resulted in the sound structure of spatial data marketplaces increasing spatial data demand and promoting the relevant business due to diverse users.

The shape of query windows for spatial selection queries is a rectangle in many cases. However, it can be issued for spatial selection queries with not only rectangular query widow, but also polygonal query window. Moreover, as the applications like GIS can manage much more spatial data, they can support the more various applications. Therefore it is valuable for considering about the query processing method suitable for not only rectangle query window, but also general polygonal one. It is the general state-of-the-art approach to use the plane- sweep technique as the computation algorithm in the refinement step as the spatial join queries do. However, from the observation on the characteristics of spatial data and query windows, we can find in many cases that the shape of query window is much simpler than that of spatial data. From these observations, we suggest a new refinement process approach which is suitable for this situation. Our experiments show that, if the number of vertices composing the query window is less than about 20, the new approach we suggest is superior to the state-of-the-art approach by about 20% in general cases.

This study aims to analyze the existing problem of geo-spatial information maintenance and then, show maintenance strategies suitable for new integrated environments. We look for AS-IS which is provider-centered, top-down, and also drive implications from analyzing oversea best practice. For analyzing of geo-spatial maintenance pattern, we polled about 20 local governments and private enterprise to find out AS-IS of geo-spatial information and result in maintenance pattern and component. From this, we suggest 4 kinds of strategies. This study shows the strategy not only which decide the question about the problem of existing geo-spatial maintenance but which find a way of combining and utilizing all geo-spatial information which is 8 criteria basic geographical information. This is a win-win program of all organization which produce, construct, make full use of national geo-spatial information.

We propose a novel multi-photodiode array (MPDA) based retinal implant IC with on/off stimulation strategy for a visual prosthesis with improved spatial resolution. An active pixel sensor combined with a comparator enables generation of biphasic current pulses when light intensity meets a threshold condition. The threshold is tuned by changing the discharging time of the active pixel sensor for various light intensity environments. A prototype of the 30-channel retinal implant IC was fabricated with a unit pixel area of $0.021mm^2$, and the stimulus level up to $354{\mu}A$ was measured with the threshold ranging from 400 lx to 13120 lx.

Antenna selection is a method to enhance the performance of spatial multiplexing multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems, which can achieve the diversity order of the full MIMO systems. Although various selection criteria have been studied in the literature, they should be adjusted to the detection operation implemented at the receiver. In this paper, antenna selection methods that optimize the post-processing signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and eigenvalue are considered for the lattice reduction (LR)-based receiver. To develop a complexity-efficient antenna selection algorithm, the incremental selection strategy is adopted. Moreover, for improvement of performance, an additional iterative selection method is presented in combination with an incremental strategy.

New renewable energy information becomes one of the greatest issues all over the world because of serious environment problems and limited fossil resources. The new renewable energy source information system is treated seriously for efficient management and distribution as dealing with these energy problems. However, it is difficult to manage and utilize new renewable energy information because gathering and surveying information is progressed individually in each research field. Therefore this paper will establish ISP(Information strategy Planning) and propose the basic management system based-on GIS to analyze new renewable energy such as solar energy, wind power, small hydro, biomass, geothermal etc. and build the integration management system. The proposed integration management system can provide spatial analysis using thematic map, data search, data import/export and interpolation about users quenes.

This paper presents an energy-efficient spatial join algorithm for multiple sensor networks employing a spatial semijoin strategy. For optimization of the algorithm, we propose a GR-tree index and a grid-ID-based spatial approximation method, which are unique to sensor networks. The GR-tree is a distributed spatial index over the sensor nodes, which efficiently prunes away the nodes that will not participate in a spatial join result. The grid-ID-based approximation provides great reduction in communication cost by approximating many spatial objects in simpler forms. Our experiments demonstrate that the algorithm outperforms existing methods in reducing energy consumption at the nodes.
