A case study of WebGIS technology for distance learning between Korea and Japan

Recently，some case study of distance learning by internet line are widely carried out. Until now，the cultural or friendship exchange was a main purpose using distance learning program. In our research group， a distance learning which connected 3 sites (Nagasaki and Omura and Kagoshima in Japan) was tried as a domestic example 1]. In this case，internet exclusive line and portable telephone were utilized for DVTS technical support of distance learning. Nowadays，the international distance learning for education is also beginning.
