Abstract
During the past ten years GIS in China has been made a great achievement under the powerful support of central government. There are two key laboratories for GIS, RS and GPS researches: LREIS at the Institute of Geography, the Chinese Academy of Science and LIESMARS at Wuhan Technical University of Surveying and Mapping. China GIS standards have been studied and some of them are formally in use. National Resources and Land Databases at 1/4, 000, 000 or 1/1, 000, 000 have been developed. GISs have also been successfully applied for damage predictions and recover planning making from flood disasters, environmental change analyses, ecological planning of river delta areas or basins as well as global environmental researches. Fundamental researches on theories and technology are widely carried out such as on vectorizing of scanning data automatically, object-oriented data models, integration of GIS with RS and so on.
