초록

외부 환경에서의 영상처리 기술은 외부환경에 매우 민감하여 외부환경이 급격하게 변화할 때마다 정확도가 많이 떨어지는 경향이 있다. 따라서 교통감시시스템으로 정확한 교통정보를 산출하기 위해서는 (여기서 교통감시시스템은 영상처리 기술을 이용하여 교통상황을 감시하는 시스템) '전이시간대의 그림자 제거', '야간에 차량 전조등에 의한 왜곡', '비', 눈, 그리고 안개에 의한 잡음', '폐색(occlusion)' 등을 필히 해결해야만 한다. 본 논문은 다양한 변화가 일어나는 실외환경에서 영상처리 기술을 이용하여 교통량, 속도, 점유시간을 산출하는 시스템을 개발하였다. 따라서, 시스템의 성능을 검증하기 위해 한국건설 기술연구원에서 운영하고 있는 곤지암 시험장에서 2008년 12월 16일부터 18일까지 교통량, 속도, 점유시간에 대해 4개차로 (상행 2차로, 하행 2차로)를 대상으로 평가하였다. 평가 방법은 기준데이터가 되는 레이더 검지기 데이터와 본 연구의 영상처리기술에 의해 산출된 데이터를 비교하는 방법으로 수행되었다. 평가 결과, 주간, 야간, 일출, 일몰 시간대 모두 교통량, 속도, 점유시간 산출 값이 기준데이터와 비교했을 때 약 92%에서 97%까지의 정확도가 있는 것으로 평가되었다.

Image processing technique in the outdoor environment is very sensitive, and it tends to lose a lot of accuracy when it rapidly changes by outdoor environment. Therefore, in order to calculate accurate traffic information using the traffic monitoring system, we must resolve removing shadow in transition time, Distortion by the vehicle headlights at night, noise of rain, snow, and fog, and occlusion. In the research, we developed a system to calibrate the amount of traffic, speed, and time occupancy by using image processing technique in a variety of outdoor environments change. This system were tested under outdoor environments at the Gonjiam test site, which is managed by Korea Institute of Construction Technology (www.kict.re.kr) for testing performance. We evaluated the performance of traffic information, volume counts, speed, and occupancy time, with 4 lanes (2 lanes are upstream and the rests are downstream) from the 16th to 18th December, 2008. The evaluation method performed as based on the standard data is a radar detection compared to calculated data using image processing technique. The System evaluation results showed that the amount of traffic, speed, and time occupancy in period (day, night, sunrise, sunset) are approximately 92-97% accuracy when these data compared to the standard data.
