Abstract
GIS in business is catching on. As it increases its office use and receives wide recognition of its potential, even field workers want to use it out of office. On the other hand, some companies have introduced mobile computing technique to their enterprise information system thanks to the development of mobile terminals and mobile telecommunication infrastructure. There are, however, several restrictions and difficulties to integrate these techniques into a mobile GIS, mostly due to the characteristics of GIS and the immaturity of mobile computing environment.This paper explains one solution to overcome these difficulties and develop a mobile mapping system already in practical use. The new method makes use of CD-ROM and mobile phone. Furthermore, this paper discusses how to expand and incorporate mobile GIS into enterprise information system with an example of location system utilizing GPS.
