Spatial Support Systems for Environmentally Sound Land Use Planning

Defining Issue: The midmountain area of Cheju island of Korea, which is a major source of water supply and has an exotic landscape as a buffer zone between developed coastal area and the mountain area must meet the ever-increasing demand for development. GIS Solution: We developed the spatial decision support systems for determining whether a land development request is appropriate to the capacity of this midmountain environment. Methodology: Environmental information needed in land use planning could be classified into three areas: underground water, landscape, and ecosystem, and graded for conservation through interactive criteria evaluation and modeling. When a land development is required, not only suitability, but the criteria and management strategy as well, are accurately and rationally provided to clients and the decision maker. Software: - W/S Server: ArcInfo Version 7.0.4 for UNIX - PC Client: ArcView Version 2.1/Avenue for Windows, Visual Basic, NFS The purpose of the paper is to focus on the application and its availability to spatial decision problems.
