Research Planning Department takes charge of entire planning and management of SIRI including yearly and mid/long term planning, management of research projects, management evaluation, PR, external cooperation, etc. It promotes research activities and supports conferences, seminars, Smart Geospatial Expo, publication of Journal ‘Cadastre’. In addition, it raises operational efficiency of SIRI by providing external cooperation, support and cooperation agreement with related organizations, and makes efforts for quality research.
With development of IT technology, demands for location based services have increased. To cope with the demands, Spatial Information Convergence Team(SICT) researches various and credible data acquisition and services for its efficient presentation and provision, etc. As a land information specialized research institute, SICT is trying to create new and high added value by developing various customized service model and researching data open, sharing and convergence.
Cadastre based spatial information is a basic data to protect property rights as well as to make national policies in most areas including land, environment, national defence, transportation, etc. To develop this spatial information, Spatial Information Policy Research Team focuses on legislation study and policy development such researches as ‘Korean and international geo-information industry’ and ‘Real estate legislation for unified Korea’. The team also contributes efficient achievement of government policy and guarantees property rights by continuous monitoring of related fields.
SIRI started ‘Address standardization research’ and joined TTA in 2011, became a member of OGC(Open GIS Consortium) in 2012, and was designated as ‘Supporting Institute for Standardization’ by Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport(MoLIT) in 2013. To keep pace with the revision of National Spatial Data Infrastructure Act in 2012, Spatial Information Standardization Team was rearranged for foundation development, contribution to assignment of spatial information reference system and standardization of spatial information. The team works with government ministries as Korean delegates at ISO19152(LADM) and ISO19160(Addressing) in ISO/TC211.
Research Group for Spatial Information Open Platform was officially designated on October 1, 2013, by Korea Agency for Infrastructure Technology Advancement(KAIA) in MoLIT. The research group enhances architecture, software, data securing and processing technologies to advance national 3D spatial information open platform(V-World), and researches plans for vitalizing of open platform and securing export competitive power.
Technical Enhancement Team, composed of specialized researchers in spatial information, GNSS and cadastral survey, targets new technology that can be used immediately and promotion of efficiency and technology, for cadastral survey and spatial industry of LX KCSC. For this, the team is researching base technology of spatial information, development of GNSS and cadastral survey, business diversification using cadastral information, etc.
Spatial information technology is changing by conversion trend of combining new and existing technologies. System Team is responsible for system development that fuses work process with ICT for assistance and improvement of existing task procedure. Also, it focuses researches of Unification Field & Office, Composition of platform environment for world geodetic system and Environmental promotion between work processes.
Dept. of International Cooperation, that leads globalization of Korean experience on cadastral based land surveying, land administration and spatial information, has performed global projects over 15 countries in world since 2006. The projects are funded by ODA, EDCF, WB, ADB and government, and composed of cadastral survey, system development and digitization, feasibility study, knowledge sharing program(KSP), invitation training, experts dispatching, etc. By building stable cooperation system with leading organizations in world, we are exchanging specialists and technologies with organizations, and performs overseas volunteering to strengthen relationship with the developing countries. Besides projects, it also focuses on broadening mutual understanding, technologies and system by participating international conferences, academic societies and seminar. Especially, ‘Geospatial Industry Supporting Center(GISC)’ has been built and operated for private sector to share global projects’know-how as a public corporation.
