Recently, the synthetic aperture radar (SAR) has been increasingly in demand due to its advantage of being able to observe desired points regardless of time and weather. To utilize SAR data, first of all, many pre-processing such as satellite orbit correction, radiometric calibration, multi-looking, and geocoding are required. For analysis of SAR imagery such as object detection, change detection, and DEM(Digital Elevation Model), additional processings are needed. These pre-processing and additional processes are very complex and require a lot of time and computational resources. In order to handle the SAR images easily, the institutions that use SAR images develop analysis tools and provide users. This paper introduces the function and characteristics of representative SAR imagery analysis tools.

Approximate empirical equations obtained by measuring overall noise levels at different distances have been used to evaluate environmental influence of the railway noise though the accurate prediction of noise levels is important. In this paper, a noise prediction model considering the frequency characteristics of noise sources and propagation was suggested to improve the accuracy of noise prediction. The railway noise source was assorted into track, wheel, traction and aerodynamic components and they were characterized with the source strength and speed coefficient at each octave-band frequency. Correction terms for the acoustic roughness and the track/bridge condition were introduced. The sound attenuation from a source to a receiver was calculated taking account of the geometrical divergence, atmospheric absorption, ground effect, diffraction at obstacles and directivity of source by applying ISO 9613-2. For obtaining the source strength and speed coefficients, the results of rolling noise model, numerical analysis and measurements of pass-by noise were analyzed. We compared the predicted and measured noise levels in various vehicles and tracks, and verified the accuracy of the present model. It is found that the present model gives less error than the conventional one, so that it can be applied to make the accurate prediction of railway noise effect and establish its countermeasures efficiently.

The Geostationary Ocean Color Imager (GOCI) data-processing system (GDPS), which is a software system for satellite data processing and analysis of the first geostationary ocean color observation satellite, has been developed concurrently with the development of th satellite. The GDPS has functions to generate level 2 and 3 oceanographic analytical data, from level 1B data that comprise the total radiance information, by programming a specialized atmospheric algorithm and oceanic analytical algorithms to the software module. The GDPS will be a multiversion system not only as a standard Korea Ocean Satellite Center(KOSC) operational system, but also as a basic GOCI data-processing system for researchers and other users. Additionally, the GDPS will be used to make the GOCI images available for distribution by satellite network, to calculate the lookup table for radiometric calibration coefficients, to divide/mosaic several region images, to analyze time-series satellite data. the developed GDPS system has satisfied the user requirement to complete data production within 30 minutes. This system is expected to be able to be an excellent tool for monitoring both long-term and short-term changes of ocean environmental characteristics.

The empirical/statistical models to estimate the ground Particulate Matter ($PM_{2.5}$) concentration from Geostationary Ocean Color Imager (GOCI) Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD) product were developed and analyzed for the period of 2015 in Seoul, South Korea. In the model construction of AOD-$PM_{2.5}$, two vertical correction methods using the planetary boundary layer height and the vertical ratio of aerosol, and humidity correction method using the hygroscopic growth factor were applied to respective models. The vertical correction for AOD and humidity correction for $PM_{2.5}$ concentration played an important role in improving accuracy of overall estimation. The multiple linear regression (MLR) models with additional meteorological factors (wind speed, visibility, and air temperature) affecting AOD and $PM_{2.5}$ relationships were constructed for the whole year and each season. As a result, determination coefficients of MLR models were significantly increased, compared to those of empirical models. In this study, we analyzed the seasonal, monthly and diurnal characteristics of AOD-$PM_{2.5}$model. when the MLR model is seasonally constructed, underestimation tendency in high $PM_{2.5}$ cases for the whole year were improved. The monthly and diurnal patterns of observed $PM_{2.5}$ and estimated $PM_{2.5}$ were similar. The results of this study, which estimates surface $PM_{2.5}$ concentration using geostationary satellite AOD, are expected to be applicable to the future GK-2A and GK-2B.

A Xenon feed system has been developed for a 300 W Hall-effect thruster intended for orbit maintenance of small satellite. The system can store about 2 kg of xenon gas at 150 bar and is capable of controlling the mass flow rate of the gas at 0.5 SCCM resolution. The performance of the system is verified with a laboratory experiment. It is confirmed that the operation of the feed system is successful at a pressure level of $1.0{\times}10^{-6}$ torr in the vacuum chamber.

In this paper, we developed a Satellite Image Processing System for obtaining 3-D positional information which is composed of five process modules. As a procedure of them, the Data Process module is the procedure that reads and processes the header file to generate data files. and then calculates orbital parameters and sensor attitudes for obtaining of 3-D positional information with them. The 3D Process module is to calculate 3-D positional information and the Dialog Process module is to correct the time of image frame center using the single image or stereo images for implementing the 3D Process module. We expect to obtain 3-D positional information with the header file and minimum GCPs(1∼2 points) using this system efficiently and economically in comparison with existing commercial software packages.

본 논문에서는 적외선 스테레오 카메라를 이용하여 고속으로 날아가는 표적의 좌표들을 측정하고 회귀분석을 통한 오차특성을 이용하여 추정하는 시스템을 제안한다. 표적과 배경의 온도차이로 표적 영역을 검출하고 적외선 스테레오 카메라 정합과 카메라 파라미터를 이용하여 표적의 좌표를 추정한다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 적외선 스테레오 카메라 시스템을 검증하기 위해 3차원 궤적(x,y,z) 측정기로 표적의 속도와 거리를 측정하여 표적 궤도를 예측하고, 여러 차례 실험한 비디오 데이터로부터 스테레오 정합을 이용하여 z, x축의 거리(좌표)들을 구하고 회귀 분석(regression analysis)을 사용하여 최소 자승법(Least squares method)으로 표적의 궤적들을 비교하였다. 적외선 스테레오 정합 시스템에 오차특성을 적용하여 표적의 좌표를 보정할 수 있었다. 향후 다양한 표적들의 오차를 모델화하여 고속표적들의 좌표 측정을 향상 시킬 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

최근 들어 다항식비례모형(RFM: Rational Function Model)은 비전문가에게 있어서 지형보정을 위한 정확도 문제를 해결함과 동시에 센서 종류에 상관없이 적용 가능한 범용적인 센서모델링 기법으로 각광을 받고 있다. 그러나 엄밀(physical) 모델이 없는 센서 혹은 위성의 궤도력 자료를 제공하지 않는 센서의 경우 다항식비례모형의 적용을 위해서는 다수의 매개변수 사용으로 인한 계수들 간의 상관성을 고려해야 한다. 이에 본 연구에서는 2차 다항식비례모형에 기초하여 전방 다항식비례모형(Forward RFM)과 상관도 분석을 통한 전방 다항식비례모형의 이른 및 위치정확도에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 대상연구지역은 KOMPSAT(Korea Multi-Purpose Satellite)과 SPOT으로 촬영한 대전광역시와 그 주변지역으로 SPOT과 KOMPSAT 모두 상관성 분석 전에는 대략 50% 정도의 검사점에 대해 과대오차(>100m)가 얻어졌으며, 이 점들을 제외한 검사점에 대해서도 SPOT은 평균수평오차 20-24m, 평균표고오차 25m, KOMPSAT은 평균수평오차 15-24m, 평균표고오차 30m를 나타내었다. 전방 다항식비례모형에 대하여 상관성 분석을 수행한 후에는 검사점에 대한 모든 과대오차 조정결과가 소거되었고 검사점에 대해서 SPOT은 평균수평오차 8.8m, 평균표고오차 25.2m, KOMPSAT은 평균수평오차 8.4m, 평균표고오차 14.5m를 나타내었다. 최종적으로 연구지역에 대한 수치표고모형의 제작을 통해 상관도 분석을 통한 다항식비례모형의 실제 적용 가능성을 보여주었다.

The aim of this study is to know the GPS absolute positioning accuracy after discontinuing of Selective Availability (SA). The GPS satellite clock errors and the observation station coordinates were calculated using GPS C/A code pseudorange and compared with the JPL precise ephemerides and the previous known coordinates. As the results, the correction or the GPS clock errors in SA-on is about $\pm$40m but in SA-off $\pm$2m. The 95% probable errors for the measurements in SA-on are about $\pm$65m but in SA-off $\pm$10m in X, Y and SA-off $\pm$15m in Z.
