This study provides a legislative alternative to eliminate or reduce the military and security threat factors regarding Google’s request to export digital imagery outside Korea. Accordingly, a case analysis was conducted on the Capital Defense Command, one of the most important military facilities in Korea, to investigate if Google’s export of local mapping data would act as an additional threat factor in military and security aspects. As a result of the investigation, it was found that Google’s satellite imagery overlapped with exported digital images could be used for various military purposes such as infiltration paths, supply lines, and travel routes. Therefore, this study suggests legislation to introduce extraterritorial application as a legislative alternative where an entity requesting to export digital images out of the country is obliged to make individuals or organizations at home and abroad comply with the laws related to security processing to remove or reduce military and security threat factors. This alternative will impose responsibility on overseas individuals and organizations using Korean digital map images to follow the security processing-related laws, and the Korean government can evaluate the results through inspection agencies. If overseas individuals, corporations, and their branch offices fail to comply with the obligation in Korea, they should face Korean laws according to the punishment regulations: Article 109 of the Law on the Establishment and Management of Spatial Information (EMSD), Article 24 of the Protection of Military Bases and Installations Law (PMBI), and Article 7 of the Spatial Data Industry Promotion Law (SDIP). Besides the legislative alternative, an intergovernmental negotiation on the “E-commerce Trade Law” began recently (Oct. 2019). The paradigm shift toward “digital trade” is expected to occur. Eventually, it is expected that follow-up studies will investigate measures to expand economic exchanges with balanced perspectives while eliminating extra military and security risk factors

The purpose of this study was to analyze the correlation between the environmental and ecological assessment rating of the land and the urban atmospheric pollutant concentrations measured by the urban atmospheric monitoring network provided by Air Korea of the Ministry of Environment. It also intends to examine whether the environmentally and ecologically excellent areas affect the reduction of air pollutant concentrations. This study performs the Pearson correlation analysis between the average atmospheric pollutant concentrations in each of 260 municipalities in Korea obtained by applying IDW, which is one of the interpolation techniques, using the urban atmospheric measurement network data from 2013 to 2018, and the area ratio of each environmental and ecological assess rating in the municipality from 2013 to 2018. The results of the correlation analysis showed that SO2, CO, NO2, PM10, and PM2.5 concentrations had a higher negative correlation when the ratio of Grade 1 areas, which were considered as the environmentally and ecologically excellent areas, was higher. The negative correlation decreased as the environmental and ecological assessment rating was lowered, and the regions with a higher ratio of Grade 5 areas showed a high positive correlation. The atmospheric pollutant concentrations were lower as the ratio of Grade 1 areas was higher, and the atmospheric pollutant concentrations were higher as the ratio of Grade 5 areas was higher. The results confirmed that, even in the same green regions, the atmospheric pollutant concentrations decreased as the ratio of environmentally and ecologically excellent areas increased. Therefore, it is necessary to secure sufficient environmentally and ecologically excellent areas to reduce the atmospheric pollutant concentrations that affect the people’s health, and the urban plans should address the management of environmentally and ecologically excellent areas. Future studies include the additional correlation analysis with various factors such as the patch area and patch distribution in the environmentally and ecologically excellent areas. The analysis result should be reflected in the national policies.
