AB - The authors argue that the current Government Information System for asthmatics appearsto be non-user friendly due to lack of the cartographic representation for the text basedstatistical data. Acknowledging these constraints, an operational, user-friendly map forasthmatic prevalence has been generated by combining existing statistical data with theadministrative Dong boundary map under GIS environment. The Geographical User Interface,in particular, were ideally suited to deriving the major distribution patterns that more asthmaticprevalence tends to be occurred on conventional commercial district and industrial complex. Avisual map using spatial modelling technology were generated to show the fact that somedegree of increasing or decreasing trends of asthmatic prevalence already exists in theexperimental sites. It could be used as an evidence to restrict initiation of development activitiescausing negative influence to asthma such as road construction. The result of this study wouldplay a crucial role in improving the quality of environmental health information service if it isoperationally introduced into the Government since the highly user-friendly interface providesa completely new means for disseminating information for asthmatics in a visual andinteractive manner to the general public.
