ABSTRACT

This study relates to the need for GIS in the soil contamination survey which is performing annually in Korea, accordance with the Soil Conservation Act. To do this, we had explored the potential use of GIS in the each phase of planning, sample survey and results analysis of soil contamination survey. Soil contamination survey of 604 samples, which were carried out in Gangwon-Do from 2010 to 2012, were analyzed by GIS. The level of spatial clustering of three years cumulative data was higher than that of one year's data. This means that the spatial distribution of survey points should be considered in the planning phase. In addition, survey points should be recorded as latitude and longitude coordinates by the GPS, because to record the site with the address or the plane coordinate is likely to cause error. This is also need for the efficient data management and precise spatial analysis. Finally, the result of soil contamination is mapped in order to improve the efficiency of communication and decision-making. From these mapa, we can find additional relationship of the other factors like roads and rivers which relate to soil contamination.
