Abstract | Spatial data infrastructure (SDI) plays an important role in the sharing and exchange of spatial information of the country, in this way, it has also played a major role in the development of the country's economy and society. In recent years, FOSS4G (Free Open Source Software for Geospatial) provides functionalities that are not inferior to commercial software, which lead to the diffusion of that software to the public and private sectors. Developing countries which have poor information infrastructures, there are increasing discussions about the adoption of FOSS4G to their national spatial data infrastructure (NSDI) in order to utilize the benefits of the foundation. As the benefits of FOSS4G adoption, it has suggested the low introduction cost and interoperability of software that does not depend on the specific software. But there are differences on the pros and cons of FOSS4G adoption to their NSDI because each country has their own economic and technological development stages and cultural and institutional differences. In this research, we will develop the framework to compare and evaluate the relationships between indicators on the developing countries' economic, technological development and factors in the introduction of FOSS4Gs to their NSDI and conduct a survey on the developing countries’ FOSS4G adoption to their NSDI with the help of UN GGIM(United Nations Global Geospatial Information Management) and KOICA. Thus, by comparing and evaluating each country's FOSS4G adoption to NSDI according to their countries' economic and technological development stage, we will identify the awareness of the adoption and propose a deployment strategy for overcoming the disadvantages when developing countries consider the introduction of FOSS4G to their NSDI. |
