Abstract
 Establishment of the Spatial Information Infrastructure in Kyushu University, Japan Track: Database Design, Automation, and Management Author(s): Hiro Ikemi, Tetsuro Esaki, Yasuhiro Mitani, Hiroshi Fujiwara The Self-Regulated & Distributed Spatial Information System (SRDSIS) has been proposed as a spatial information infrastructure for the development of a scientific research park in Kyushu University, Japan. The system is based on a distributed database model using GIS technology. Databases distributed in five campuses of the university, including non-spatial databases, are connected logically or replicated fragmentally to a node GIS. The node GIS, which is an important element of this system, is composed of spatial data storage, WebGIS, and a clearinghouse over a computer network. It makes it possible to share spatial data and promote campus-wide cooperation with the scientific communities. In Kyushu University, the implementation of SRDSIS has started based on the New Campus master plan.
