In this paper, we introduce an algorithm for the ortho-rectification of high resolution pushbroom-type satellite images. The generation of ortho-images in the ultimate level of the satellite image preprocessing which also includes systematic geocoding and precision geocoding. It is also essential for the mapping of satellite images because topotraphic maps are based on the orthographic projection. The newly developed ortho-image generation algorithm introduced in this paper is on the line of the algorithms previously developed (Shin and Lee, 1997; Shin e 1998). Various experimental results are shown in this paper. The results show that the algorithm completely eliminates the disparities in the perspectively viewed images which were caused by the terrain height. The absolute accuracy of the developed algorithm depends on the accuracy of the camera model and the digital elevation model used.

The purpose of this paper is to develop an algorithm of classification and interpretation of seafloor based on side scan sonar data. The algorithm consists of mosaicking of sonar data using navigation data, correction and compensation of the acouctic amplitude data considering the charateristics of the side scan sonar system, and segmentation of the seafloor using digital image processing techniques. The correction and compensation process is essential because there is usually difference in acoustic amplitudes from the same distance of the port-side and the starboard-side and the amplitudes become attenuated as the distance is increasing. In this paper, proposed is an algorithm of compensating the side scan sonar data, and its result is compared with the mosaicking result without any compensation. The algorithm considers the amplitude characteristics according to the tow-fish's depth as well as the attenuation trend of the side scan sonar along the beam positions. This paper also proposes an image segmentation algorithm based on the texture, where the criterion is the maximum occurence related with gray level. The preliminary experiment has been carried out with the side scan sonar data and its result is demonstrated.

The observed rainfall may be different along with the altitude of rain gauge, resulting in the fact that the characteristics of rainfall events occurred in urban or mountainous areas are different. Due to the mountainous effects, in higher altitude, the uncertainty involved in the rainfall observation gets higher so that the density of rain gauges should be more dense. Basically, a methodology for the rain gauge network evaluation, considering this altitude effect of rain gauges can account for the mountainous effects and becomes an important step for forecasting flash flood and calibrating of the radar rainfall. For this reason, in this study, we suggest a methodology for rain gauge network evaluation with consideration of the rain gauge's altitude. To explore the density of rain gauges at each level of altitude, the Equal-Altitude-Ratio of the density of rain gauges, which is based on the fixed amount of elevation and the Equal-Area-Ratio of the density of rain gauges, which is based on the fixed amount of basin area are designed. After these two methods are applied to a real watershed, it is found that the Equal-Area-Ratio generates better results for evaluation of a rain gauge network with consideration of rain gauge's altitude than the Equal-Altitude-Ratio does. In addition, for comparison between the soundness of rain gauge networks in other watersheds, the Coefficient of Variation (CV) of the rain gauge density by the Equal-Area-Ratio is served as the index for the evenness of the distribution of the rain gauge's altitude. The suggested method is applied to the five large watersheds in Korea and it is found that rain gauges installed in a watershed having less value of the CV shows more evenly distributed than the ones in a watershed having higher value of the CV.

Ground and high altitude simulated combustion experiments were conducted using a liquid rocket engine with hydrogen peroxide and kerosene as the propellant. A ground and high altitude simulated combustion test facility was constructed by installing a high altitude model diffuser and TMS (Thrust Measuring System) on a vertical combustion test bench. The thrust characteristics according to altitude were investigated using the combustion test equipment. The diffuser was designed on a 1:4.8 scale to verify the characteristics of the high diffusing diffuser and starting pressure. The cold flow tests were conducted using nitrogen gas, and the performance characteristics and starting characteristics of the scale down diffuser were verified. A diffuser and TMS were installed on the vertical combustion test bench, and the thrust correction equations for the system resistance were derived. The thrust correction equations were derived from the step test and vacuum step test before the actual hot firing test. Nozzles with an operating altitude of 10km were designed. Hot firing tests were conducted to analyze the thrust characteristics according to the operating altitude changes. The actual thrust was calculated using each correction equation with the thrust value measured by the TMS.

선형 Boussinesq 형태의 파동방정식을 지배방정식으로 사용하는 능동적인 분산보정 지진해일 전파 유한 차분모형의 정확도를 향상시키기 위한 새로운 동시격자접속기법을 개발하였다. 이 격자접속기법은 공간에 대해 3차 보간식을 사용하므로 짧은 파에 대해서 보간에 따른 오차를 최소화할 수 있고, 시간에 대해 2차 보간식을 사용하기 때문에 기존 기법에 비해 더 정확한 값을 얻을 수 있다. 개발된 격자접속기법의 정확성을 평가하기 위해 수중 원형천퇴상을 전파하는 Gaussian 형상의 가상지진에 대해 격자접속기법을 적용하지 않고 계산한 결과와 격자접속기법을 적용하여 계산한 결과를 FUNWAVE에 포함되어 있는 선형화된 Boussinesq방정식에 의해 계산된 수치해와 비교하였다. 그 결과 개발된 동시격자접속기법의 우수함이 검증되었다.

As hyperspectral sensors that can be mounted on drones are developed, it is possible to acquire hyperspectral imagery with high spatial and spectral resolution. Although the importance of atmospheric correction has been reduced since imagery of drones were acquired at a low altitude,studies on the conversion process from raw data to spectral reflectance should be done for studies such as estimating the concentration of surface materials using hyperspectral imagery. In this study, a vicarious radiometric calibration and an atmospheric correction algorithm based on atmospheric radiation transfer model were applied to hyperspectral data of drone and the results were compared and analyzed. The vicarious calibration method was applied to an empirical line calibration using the spectral reflectance of a tarp made of uniform material. The atmospheric correction algorithm used ATCOR-4 based Modran-5 that was widely used for the atmospheric correction of aerial hyperspectral imagery. As a result of analyzing the RMSE of the difference between the reference reflectance and the correction, the vicarious calibration using the tarp in a single period of hyperspectral image was the most accurate, but the atmospheric correction was possible according to the application purpose of using hyperspectral imagery. If the correction process of normalized spectral reflectance is carried out through the additional vicarious calibration for imagery from multiple periods in the future, accurate analysis using hyperspectral drone imagery will be possible.

This paper describes capability of utilizing ground control points(GCPs) obtained from 1:1,000 and 1:5,000 digital vector maps to correct image coordinates which have errors due to bais rational polynomial coefficient(RPC) of IKONOS Geo-level stereo images. The accuracy of the bias-corrected images was improved to approximately 4m and 2m in planimetry and height, respectively. The accuracy was also compared with results from using GCPs obtained by GPS surveying. In consequence, bias-compensated IKONOS sereo imagery was evaluated to satisfy generating topographic map 1:10,000.

강우자료는 수문 모델링 작업에서 가장 기초적인 수문학적 입력자료로 시간과 공간에 따른 변동성이 크므로 규명하기 복잡한 수문현상 중의 하나이다. 산악지역이 많은 우리나라의 지형학적 특성과 태풍, 장마 및 특히, 최근의 게릴라성 집중호우 등으로 인하여 이러한 변동성이 더욱 커지고 있는 실정이다. 장기간 실측된 수문기상 기초 자료가 부족한 우리나라의 실정상 홍수예보 및 수공구조물 설계를 위해 정확한 강우량 자료의 취득이 선행돼야 한다. 따라서 적절한 장소에 수문관측소 설치 및 관리를 통해 양호한 강우량 자료를 획득해야 하지만, 현장 여건상 등의 이유로 미계측 및 결측, 이상자료가 발생하고 있다. 따라서 이러한 미계측 혹은 결측지점의 우량을 추정할 수 있는 방법을 비교, 분석하여 적절한 보정과정을 수행할 필요가 있다. 그간의 연구에서는 미계측 지점 혹은 산악지역에서의 점 강우량 보정방법에 대한 연구가 진행되었지만, 본 연구에서는 '도시홍수재해관리기술연구사업단'에서 운영 중인 도시하천 유역 특히 소배수구역에서의 결측 자료에 대해 여러 추정 방법을 비교, 분석하여 적절한 방안을 찾고자 한다. 이를 위하여 중랑천 유역의 3개 소배수 구역(월계1 배수구역, 군자 배수구역, 어린이대공원 배수구역)에 설치된 3개 우량관측소와 건설교통부 관할 우량관측소 2개소의 우량자료를 사용하였다. 본 연구에서는 결측치 보간을 위하여 널리 이용되고 있는 산술평균법(Arithmetic Average method), 역거리법(Reciprocal Distance Squared method), 거리고도비율법(Ratio of Distance and Elevation method), 인근관측소와의 관계식 이용, 크리깅방법(Simple Kriging method)을 비교, 검토 적용하였다. 중랑천 유역의 소배수구역을 대상으로 연중 발생하는 큰 호우사상에 대해 임의의 강우관측소를 결측지점으로 가정하고 주변의 강우관측소로부터 각각의 방법을 이용해 가중치들을 산정하여 결측지점의 강우량 값을 보정하고자 하였다. 또한 각각의 방법을 이용하여 얻어진 결과에 대해 실측값과 보정값의 오차정도를 평균절대오차법(Mean Absolute Error)과 제곱평균제곱근오차법(Root Mean Squared Error)에 의해 산정하여 보정 방법간의 효율성을 검토하고자 하였다.
