The prototype of forest fire management system on Web was studied. In the architecture of this system, one of the most important concerns is to handle load upcoming to Web Server so that it provides Web service without any delay or failure. In order to solve this problem, the agent is designed on dispatcher in a Web server cluster and implemented to distribute load dynamically by considering the information related to load coming to the Web Server such as the number of connection to the Map Server. The proposed forest fire management system has user-friendly interface with the GIS mapping functionality by selecting Map Objects Internet Map Server (MO IMS) as Map Server and is implemented using Java as programming language.

When spatial data which a user requests are stored various data servers in web mapping environment, it is necessary to access one more map servers to gain data and then integrate them. This paper designs and implements a fusion map server for web mapping. The proposed fusion map server has three characteristics. First, it has customizing metadata which reflect various user's requests. Second, it provides fusion services which integrate spatial and non-spatial data. Last, it uses the dynamic liking method to support the fusion services efficiently. We design and implement a publisher client, a map server and a fusion map server for proposed map server.

The demand for map applications in both Web and mobile environments has been rapidly increased with the population of Web and smart phone usage. Web-based map applications are mostly developed on such environments as ArcGIS and MapServer and mobile map applications are developed on such API levels as Google Maps and Yahoo Maps. But many parts of map applications are still constructed by coding because these environments don't support high level of automation. Our MapAppGen that we have designed and implemented enhances the Web-based map application productivity by generating the map related modules that can be applied to the Drupal that is one of popular content management systems(CMS's). Comparing the applications that are constructed by the Drupal-supported GMap or NodeMap, the applications that are constructed by MapAppGen provide information on not only the interested geographical feature but also its related geographical features. MapAppGen uses Google Maps API and Drupal is a module-based system that supports the creation, composition and management of contents. We are now working on automatic generation of mobile map applications with MapAppGen.

Because of the open data in public domains, it is easy to collect the public data. However, people find difficulty in visualizing the data in material that they actually want. Especially, A map is a difficult material to do the visualization work, without using the specific tools and learning. Therefore, in this paper, we proposed an interface tool for map data visualization that user can easily visualize various national statistics data on the map. We designed the interface by classifying the properties of the map systematically, focusing on the completion and convenience for making the map. After that, we developed a web-based application using D3.js. After user evaluation, we found that our application can visualize the map more quickly and completely than any other web interfaces for map data visualization. Users also found a higher satisfaction in operating convenience.

Indexing allows converting raw document collection into easily searchable representation. Web searching by Google or Yahoo provides subsecond response time which is made possible by efficient indexing of web-pages over the entire Web. Indexing process gets challenging when the scale gets bigger. Parallel techniques, such as MapReduce framework can assist in efficient large-scale indexing process. In this paper we propose PDFindexer, system for indexing scientific papers in PDF using MapReduce programming model. Unlike Web search engines, our target domain is scientific papers, which has pre-defined structure, such as title, abstract, sections, references. Our proposed system enables parsing scientific papers in PDF recreating their structure and performing efficient distributed indexing with MapReduce framework in a cluster of nodes. We provide the overview of the system, their components and interactions among them. We discuss some issues related with the design of the system and usage of MapReduce in parsing and indexing of large document collection.

Currently, many kinds of World Wide Web contents are produced by an individual journalism. Users who simply obtain information by surfing the web becomes the producer, and many contents created by these users reflect on their own interesting topics and social issues. Among these issues, the environmental contents are considered in this study, which we proposed as EcoMap, a media service platform for such contents. In terms of EcoMap, a way of thinking about our own environment would be affected, and the environmental information will be produced and shared more effectively by the users on the web.

최근 들어 유역의 정확한 수문현상을 파악하기 위하여 유역의 유출량 자료를 직접 유출과 기저유출로 분리한 후 수문 모형의 직접유출 및 기저유출의 수문컴포넌트 검증에 활용하는 연구가 많이 이루어지고 있다. 미국 국립지리국 (USGS) 에서 개발한 HYSEP 모형이 지난 수 년 동안 유출 컴포넌트 분리에 널리 이용되어 오고 있다. 그러나 USGS 기반의 HYSEP의 경우 능숙한 컴퓨터 사용자가 아닌 비전문가들이 HYSEP을 운영하기에는 여러 가지 많은 제한점이 있어 왔다. 그리하여 본 연구에서는 고해상도 위성영상 Google Map 기반의 기저유출분리 프로그램인 Web-based HYSEP 인터페이스를 개발하였다. 이 시스템에는 HYSEP에서 제공하는 3가지 방법인 Fixed Interval / Sliding Interval / Local Minimum 방법이 제공되고 있다. 본 연구에서 개발된 Google Map 기반의 HYSEP 시스템은 USGS 유량 관측지점들에 대해 XML 데이터 포맷으로 DB를 구축하여 Google Map 과 연계하였으며 이를 통해 사용자가 원하는 관측소의 실시간 유량자료를 다운로드 할 수 있도록 개발되어졌다. Google Map 기반의 HYSEP 기저유출 분리 시스템(http://www.EnvSys.co.kr/${\sim}$hysep)은 Perl/CGI 및 자바스크립트, Google Map script 등을 이용하여 개발되었다. 현재 개발된 Google Map 기반의 USGS HYSEP 시스템은 한 곳의 유량관측지점에 대해서 총 3가지 기저유출 모듈을 적용하여 결과를 제공하고 있으며, 그 결과를 테이블이나 그래프 형태로 제공하도록 되어 있다. 본 연구에서는 Google Map 기반의 USGS HYSEP 시스템을 이용하여 미국 인디애나 주의 Little Eagle Creek 유역의 유량자료와 Fixed Interval / Sliding Interval / Local Minimum 방법을 이용하여 기저유출을 분리하였으며, 기존에 널리 활용되는 기저유출 분리 프로그램인 Web 기반의 WHAT 시스템 (http://www.EnvSys.co.k.r/~what) 산정 기저유출량과 비교분석하였다. 분석결과 HYSEP 예측 기저유출치가 전반적으로 WHAT 예측치보다 크게 산정되었다. WHAT 시스템과 본 연구에서 개발한 Web 기반의 HYSEP 일단위 기저유출량을 비교해 본 결과 $R^{2}$가 0.56, EI는 0.52로 어느 정도 비슷한 경향을 나타냈으나, 유역의 특성을 반영하는 WHAT 시스템과는 달리 주어진 유량자료만을 이용하여 기저유출을 분리하는 Web 기반의 HYSEP 기저유출 분리모듈을 개선할 필요가 있는 것으로 판단된다.

The purpose of this study was to establish an analytical framework and quantitative methodologies to analyze 'the cognitive effects of web map use' and to empirically test it. This experimental design was established based on the literature about spatial cognition. Accuracy, reaction time, and confidence within each participant were compared to measure the cognitive effects of web map use for wayfinding. Geometric accuracy of the cognitive maps was estimated and calculated based on the bidimensional regression. The experimental results showed that characteristics of map users and repetition of map use rather than types of map representation did significantly affect accuracy and reaction time of spatial cognition by using web maps. And confidence appeared to be low when the participants referred to both 2D and 3D maps for wayfinding tasks on the web maps. Understanding spatial cognition of web map users, which was suggested in the study, will help cartographers make more effectively-communicated maps.

Web GIS, based on the latest web-technology, has evolved to provide efficient and accurate spatial information to users. Furthermore, Web GIS Server has improved the performance constantly to respond user web requests and to offer spatial information service. This research aims to create a designed and implemented Web GIS Server that is named as Nodemap which uses the emergent technology, Node.js, which has been issued for an event-oriented, non-blocking I/O model framework for coding JavaScript on the server development. Basically, NodeMap is Web GIS Server that supports OGC implementation specification. It is designed to process GIS data by using DBMS, which supports spatial index and standard spatial query function. And NodeMap uses Node-Canvas module supported HTML5 canvas to render spatial information on tile map. Lastly, NodeMap uses Express module based connect module framework. NodaMap performance demonstration confirmed a possibility of applying Node.js as a (next/future) Web GIS Server development technology through the benchmarking. Having completed its quality test of NodeMap, this study has shown the compatibility and potential for Node.js as a Web GIS server development technology, and has shown the bright future of internet GIS service.
