Aim of this study is to provide a geological DB system for active fault analyses using geological information and a processing program for domestic NPP site evaluation. It is focused on developing an effective system based on both fields of geology and computer science. In this work, we developed a DB program, based on MapObject provided by ESRI and Spread 3.5 OCX and coded with Visual Basic language. Major functions of the systematic database program includes functions of DB-organizer and presentation dealing with vector and raster format topographic maps, database design and application, geological symbol plot, the database search for the plotted geological symbol, and so on. The DB program can be used not only for the evaluation of active faults, but for the various fields such as design and plan of constructions, resource probes, and the research for the underground water and environment.
