In this paper, we implemented an wireless remote control and monitoring system by using Globalstar satellite modem. This system is composed of the data terminal equipment of Globalstar data communication system using microcontroller, C8051F023, and WGIS(Web-based GIS) user program. We tested the wireless remote control and monitoring system with data terminal equipment and user program how to work properly, and verified that the user could confirm the data from the data terminal equipment, which can provide the status of input/output devices and the information of location with the main and control dialog by GIS(Geographic Information System) program. For data communication of between data terminal equipment and user program, we programed PPP and TCP/IP protocol to communicate with each other. Some GIS tools used in this program are ArcView and MapObject from ESRI to offer various visual mapping information to the user.

According to abrupt decrese in number of farmer and ageing society, there has been a need for development of low cost agricultural robot. In this paper, a H/W and S/W platform of caterpillar type agricultural chemical dusting robot based on XP embedded system were described. The developed agricultural robot has 2 d.o.f caterpillar type driving wheel and 2 d.o.f chemical dusting spray mechanical system. The H/W platform of the agricultural robot consists of robot controller, remote controller and sensor controller. In S/W platform, 5 processes work concurrently, which are task manager, TCP-IP communication process, localization process, wheel control, and sensor control process. This robot platform has been developed for chemical dusting robot. We proved this system's validity through field test.
