CoGIS　is　a　platform　that　supports　multiple　users　to　edit　space　data　cooperatively　in　a　distributed　environment.　By　using　this　platform,　users　can　request　and　retrieve　space　data　remotely,　edit　and　process　space　data　cooperatively.　This　paper　presents　some　of　our　research　results　on　the　coordination　of　distributed　space　data　editing　on　CoGIS.　Agent　technology　has　been　used　as　a　key　technology　for　system　implementation.　The　results　of　this　research　can　also　be　used　in　other　similar　coordination　systems.　©2003　IEEE.
