GE-government: A Geographic Information Based E-government Citizens' Adoption Framework

摘要

The research aim is to investigate the Geographic Information (GI) influence on e-government adoption by citizens and introduce the GI based E-govemment citizens' adoption framework (GE-government). A thorough literature review was executed examining how GI is relevant to E-government services and identify the GI aspects that may affect e-government adoption by citizens. The literature review showed no evidence of any published e-government model considering GI as an independent factor having impact on e-government citizens' adoption. Moreover, it identified the most common E-government adoption influential factors. We studied the GI impact through the GE-govemment adoption model by assessing its significant influence. The research findings offered an additional value supporting the E-government's implementers in enhancing the E-government citizens' adoption. This paper proposes a factor that could affect E-government adoption modelling and has not been identified in the literature, so far. The paper concludes with a proposed framework and outlines future research.
