  • The information system fields of spatial applications have rapidly grown during the last decade in Korea. Spatial data has been produced for a variety of systems without common standards until national GIS Committee defined the data exchange formats among spatial databases in the middle of 1990's. It aimed at promoting data sharing between the different systems in similar application fields. However, a considerable number of databases built prior to the introduction of the standards are not yet standard compliant but still play the roles of the main producers/consumers in the data collection field such as early developed huge AM/FM systems maintained by governmental organizations. The strong autonomy of these databases keeps their own data models, formats and descriptions from being standardized, which leads the sharing to a more difficult stage. Sharing is another way of data acquisition with least efforts and time away from direct collection. A data clearinghouse is the core module which directs users to the relevant data resources. The contents of datasets should be described with predefined metadata standards for precise indexing. Moreover, a number of technical problems have to be resolved for the common use of data between heterogeneous spatial database systems. However, the technical issues can be covered by the present information technologies. The difficulties persist in the political/institutional issues. Institutional issues are derived from the diverse sources such as political background, governmental policies, related laws and/or regulations. The paper will firstly make an analysis of current situation in terms of Korean policies, laws and regulations, secondly abstract the institutional issues from the situation analysis, lastly present guidelines for promoting spatial data sharing in Korea.

  • In the long-term ecological research community, personal information is an important factor for the collaboration of data management and data usage in international long-term ecological research as well as on the national level. If lots of personal information was disclosed, collaborative researchers are useful to carry out research cooperation, whereas, information providers tend to be burdened to disclose it. LTER system should be considered to provide both maximum personal information required by a community and minimum personal information to be provided to unrelated people due to the scale of personal information and a number of the constraints on disclosure in the aspect of information distribution of the laws associated with personal information protection. In this article, we analyze international ecological metadata standard, EML, and trends in personal information management throughout international long-term ecological research platforms and propose a system model capable of managing personal information based on related domestic laws for the international data exchange through design and implementation.

  • The system for reporting record production has been operated to collect and transfer the public records adequately since the enactment of the Public Records Management Act in 1999. The Act, which was revised in 2007, regulates automated reporting methods in which the production reporting files are generated in the records creation systems and transferred to the records management systems. However, only one type of record is being notified electronically among seven types, which should be notified under the Act. The remaining six types of records are laboriously reported using complicated templates. Furthermore, the current working electronic notification mechanism is also causing various errors mainly because of inadequate specifications. This study analyzes the causes of failure of the electronic notification through the electronic records systems and suggests some policies for its improvement.

  • As the XML is used as the standard format for information delivery and exchange in various fields, the SVG is frequently used as a user interface or expression tool for the embedded system like an internet based mobile phone. The SVG file must contain additional information specifying the structure of the document and it consumes more transmission time than the actual data sent. The SMETA(Svg transmission MEthod using Semantic meTAdata) system[9] is a study to reduce the size of the SVG file by partitioning the SVG file to a minimal size and assigning meaningful meta data to each portion of the data. In this paper, instead of the meta data exchange method for reducing the size of the file exchanged in the existing SMETA system, we studied an improved version of SMETA system that analyzes the data for each user in the server system and only transmits the data that a user needs. In addition, through our simulation, we verified that it provides better performance than the existing system even if encryption is used.

  • Existing application systems of enterprises can process and collect a lot of information within enterprises, but it could be difficult to share validated information with partners and other system in the process of contacting to other legacy systems required in cooperation environment. For solving these problems, EAI systems are introduced in cooperation environment so that data sharing and integration can be achieved. The integration based on EAI is not limited to particular business system but all systems of an enterprise so that standard of suitable metadata level is needed for forwarding consistently between each business of systems. Therefore this paper maintains consistency of data sharing and integrating among legacy systems in cooperative environment for proposing message exchanging based on bridge XMDR.
