Abstract

This study presents a correlation between timber Age, image bands and vegetation indices for timber age estimation. Basically, this study used Landsat TM images of three difference years (1994, 1994, 1998) and difference between Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) and National Elevation Dataset (NED). Bands of 4, 5 and 7, Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), Infrared Index (II), Vegetation Condition Index (VCI) and Soil Adjusted Vegetation Index (SA VI) were obtained from Landsat TM images. Tasseled cap - greenness and wetness images were also made by Tasseled cap transformation. Finally, analysis of correlation between timber age, difference between Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) and National Elevation Dataset (NED), individual TM bands (4, 5, 7), Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), Tasseled cap-Greenness, Wetness, Infrared Index (II), Vegetation Condition Index (VCI) and Soil Adjusted Vegetation Index (SAVI) using regression model. In this study about 1,992 datasets were analyzed. The Tasseled cap - Wetness, Infrared Index (II) and Vegetation Condition Index (VCI) showed close correlation for timber age estimation.

본 논문은 Landsat TM 영상을 활용하여 교목연령 추정과 이와 관련이 있는 영상의 밴드값과 식생지수에 대한 상관관계 연구를 수행하였다. 기본적으로 본 연구에서는 취득시기가 다른 Landsat TM 영상 (1990, 1994, 1998년)과 Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM)과 National Elevation Dataset(NED) 영상의 차분영상이 사용되었으며 밴드 4, 5, 7 영상, 태슬모자형 변환을 통한 녹색식생지수, 토양수분지수 영상, 정규식생지수 (NDVI), 적외선지수 (II), 식생상태지수 (VCI), 토양보정식생지수 (SAVI) 영상은 Landsat TM 영상에서 추출되었다. 각각의 영상에서 추출된 값인 총 1992개 자료를 회귀분석을 통하여 분석하였고 연구 결과 교목연령을 추정하는데 있어서 가장 높은 결정계수($R^2$)값을 보이는 요소로는 태슬모자형 변환 토양수분지수. 적외선지수 (II), 식생상태지수 (VCI) 영상이며 이들 값이 교목연령을 추정하는데 가장 많은 영향이 있음을 알 수 있다.
