This paper deals with the data processing method relative to reference frames through the calculation of absolute coordinates of permanent GPS site which was established at Sungkyunkwan University. In this paper. we computed the ITRF97 coordinates with high precision (0.0001 ppm) from GPS data analysis. Also, we derived the accurate coordinates referred to WGS84 and Korean Geodetic Datum (KGD) using transformation parameters provided. ITRF97 coordinates were computed by using the GIPSY-OASIS II (GOA II) software and the algorithms for determining the position developed Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL). The coordinates referred to WGS84 and KGD were derived from the transformation parameters provided by International Earth Rotation Service (IERS) and National Geography Institute (NGI). The parameters determined by NGI were calculated from the 2000 project of the establishment of geocentric coordinate system. We tested its availability through the comparison of the coordinates obtained from local GPS data analysis.

In this study, the software to compute Bessel coordinates by trilateration adjustment was developed, and the software was used to determine coordinates of the cadastral control points over the southern Korean peninsula. The baseline measured by GPS was reduced to the distance on geoid surface by applying PNU95 geoid model, and the distance on geoid surface was reduced to the plane grid distance by applying scale factor of map projection of Bessel coordinates. Using the plane grid distance, Bessel coordinates of 32 CORS (Continuously Operating Reference Station) were computed by free adjustment at first, and then the coordinates of the cadastral control points were computed by joining the control points to adjacent CORS. The result shows a possibility of construction of highly accurate and consistent cadastral survey network with coordinate error less than 1ppm of distance, when newly computing the coordinates of the control points by using distances measured by GPS.

우주측지 정밀도 향상을 위해 대류층 지연오차의 정확한 산출은 필수적이다. 한국천문연구원은 GPS 자료를 이용하여 대류층 지연오차 요인인 대기 중의 수증기량을 정확히 산출하는 연구를 수행하고 있다. 또한, 1999년부터 GPS 관측을 시작한 이래로 10년 이상의 연속 관측자료를 보유하고 있다. 이 연구에서는2000년부터 2008년까지 한국천문연구원의 GPS 상시관측소 5곳(서울, 대전, 목포, 밀양, 속초)의 GPS 가강수량을 산출하고 이들의 다년간 변화경향을 분석하였다. 산출된 GPS 가강수량을 라디오존데 관측값과 비교하여 신뢰도 검증하였다. 선형회귀방법을 통하여 GPS 가강수량에 대한 경향을 분석하면 관측 지역마다 기울기의 차는 있으나 전체적으로 시간이 지날수록 GPS 가강수량이 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 해당 기간동안 GPS 가강수량의 연간 변화량은 평균 0.20mm 증가하였고 목포의 경우 0.25mm로 가장 큰 변화량을 보였으며 서울이 0.16mm로 가장 작은 변화량을 보였다. 여름철 연간 변화량은 평균 0.32mm 증가하였고 겨울철은 평균 0.08mm 감소하였다. 일반적으로 기온이 상승하면 상대습도가 내려가 수증기의 증발이 활발해져 대기중의 수증기량이 증가한다. 최근 10년간 기상청의 기온은 매해 평균 $0.16^{\circ}C$씩 증가하였으며 대기 중의 수증기량과 직접적으로 연관되어 있는 GPS 가강수량의 변화 경향과 유사함을 확인하였다.

Variations of mean ionospheric spatial gradient over Korea are analyzed in order to support GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) augmentation systems and integrity monitering systems. A software for analyzing the ionospheric spatial gradient is developed using an ionospheric plate model. Daily and annual variations of ionospheric delay and spatial gradient are analyzed using GPS data in 2003 and 2005 respectively. The ionospheric delays and spatial gradients in 2003 were larger than 2005. Also, the south-north gradient, about -1.0mm/km, is nearly two times larger than the east-west gradient. The annual ionospheric spatial gradients over Korea is varied within 2mm/km.

This paper deals with the high precision of GPS measurement reduction and its implementation on near real-time and kinematic mode for those applications requiring centimeter-level precision of the estimated coordinates, even if target stations are a few hundred kilometers away from their references. We designed the system architecture, data streaming and processing scheme. Intensive investigation was performed to determine the characteristics of the GPS medium-range functional model, IGS infrastructure and some exemplary systems. The designed system consisted of streaming and processing units; the former automatically collects GPS data through Ntrip and IGS ultra-rapid products by FTP connection, whereas the latter handles the reduction of GPS observables on static and kinematic mode to a time series of the target stations' 3D coordinates. The data streaming unit was realized by a DOS batch file, perl script and BKG's BNC program, whereas the processing unit was implemented by definition of a process control file of BPE. To assess the functionality and precision of the positional solutions, an experiment was carried out against a network comprising seven GPS stations with baselines ranging from a few hundred up to a thousand kilometers. The results confirmed that the function of the whole system properly operated as designed, with a precision better than ${\pm}1cm$ in each of the positional component with 95% confidence level.

GPS data acquired at CORS are widely and rapidly used in many application such as information technology industries. In acquisition of GPS data the establishment of standards of reliability and tolerance error range is necessary. This standards is regarded to contain the requirements of selection of using softwares, precise and broadcast ephemeris, duration of data acquisition, and etc. This study focused to present above standards of tolerance error. In long baseline GPS observation network the RMSE analysed in this study resulted little change when data acquired in 6-hour duration, but the less observation duration resulted less accuracy. Especially in 3-hour observation the accuracy of GPS data decreased rapidly. After analyses of data accuracy in the same observation condition using different computer program between academic and commercial purpose software, the RMSE of academic software resulted less than 1cm compared to 3 to 10cm from commercial software. RMSE analysis between precise ephemeris and broadcast ephemeris resulted similar quantity. Therefore this study regarded to present the reliable establishment of standards of error which can be used in required accuracy in GPS data observation.

The GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) signal is delayed by the neutral atmosphere at the troposphere, so that the delay is one of major error sources for GNSS precise positioning. The tropospheric delay is an integrated refractive index along the path of GNSS signal. The refractive index is empirically related to standard meteorological variables, such as pressure, temperature and water vapor partial pressure, therefore the tropospheric delay could be calculated from them. In this paper, it is presented how to generate meteorological data where observation cannot be performed. KASI(Korea Astronomy & Space Science Institute) has operated 9 GPS (Global Positioning System) permanent stations equipped with co-located MET3A, which is a meteorological sensor. Meteorological data are generated from observations of MET3A by Ordinary Kriging. To compensate a blank of observation data, simple models which consider periodic characteristics for meteorological data, are employed.

Plate tectonics is a dominant paradigm in modern geophysics. Because of its geological mechanism, Korea has a possibility of earthquake according to plate motion. Besides the disaster of earthquake grows rapidly, the importance of recognition for earthquake has been emphasized. This study attempts to decide crustal movement parameters with GPS data, analysed baseline after processing data with GIPSY-OASIS II S/W, observed from 6 stations in and around the Korean peninsula, and obtained from selected 11 stations in Korea. As a results, maximum shear strain was $0.04{\mu}/yr$ and the mean azimuth of the maximum compression axes$(A_{z2})$ is estimated as $97.75^{\circ}$ in and around the Korean peninsula. The average rate of the maximum shear strain($({\gamma}_max)$) is $0.17{\mu}/yr$. The mean azimuth of the maximum compression axes$(A_{z2})$ is estimated as $70.25^{\circ}$ in Korea. Such a pattern of strain distribution is harmonious with that of seismic activity in Korea both historically as well as today.

유량조사는 측선수, 측정시간, 측정위치, 측정방법 등 많은 기준이 있으며 이를 잘 준수하는 것이 높은 품질의 유량측정 성과를 확보하는 방법이다. 그러나 이러한 기본적인 기준을 잘 준수하더라도 현장 상황에 따라 유량측정 성과에 오차가 포함 될 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 상류 소수력발전소의 방류량에 따라 유량이 변화하고 수위관측소 부근에 큰 저류공간이 있는 현장 여건이 유량측정성과에 어떠한 영향을 끼치는지 검토하였다. 홍천군(주음치교) 관측소는 홍천강 상류에 위치하며 소수력발전소의 운영에 따라 관측소를 흘러가며 그 유량이 소수력발전소의 영향으로 점변한다. 일반적으로 이러한 경우 측정시간을 최대한 짧게 가져가 유량자료의 정확도를 확보한다. 하지만 홍천군(주음치교)의 경우 수위관측소 주변에 큰 저류공간이 있어 이를 동시에 고려해야 하며 단순하게 측정시간을 짧게 하는 것만으로는 측정성과의 품질을 확보 할 수 없다. 왜냐하면 이 저류 공간으로 물이 유입되는 시간동안은 수위관측소의 수위 상승은 미미하지만 하천 유량은 증가하는 부등류가 발생한다. 유량측정은 등류가정에 의한 것으로 수위관측소 주변이 부등류가 발생하면 유량측정 성과에 큰 오류가 나타나기도 한다. 홍천군(주음치교)에서 현장 상황이 등류일 때와 부등류일 때 모두 측정을 실시하였으며 그 차이를 확인하였다. 저류공간의 물 유입이나 유출이 없는, 즉 등류 상태의 유량측정 성과는 수위-유량관계식과 2.86%차이를 보였으며 부등류 상태의 유량측정 성과는 19.85%차이를 보여 큰 차이를 보였다(기준수위 0.49m). 또한 소수력발전소 운영에 따라 유량 상승 시에는 수위-유량관계곡선식 대비하야 양(+)의 편차율이 발생하고, 유량이 하강 시에는 수위-유량관곡선식 대비 음(-)의 편차율 발생하는 것으로 나타났다. 소수력 발전소는 동절기를 제외한 상시 운영으로 홍천군(주음치교) 관측소의 정확한 수위-유량관계식을 확인하기 위하여 소수력 발전소 운영을 중단하고 측정을 실시하였으며 유량변동을 멈추고, 즉 등류 흐름에서 측정한 성과는 수위-유량관계식과 차이가 1.06% 불과한 것으로 나타났다. 수문조사는 측선수, 측정시간, 측점수 등 많은 기준이 있다. 그러나 이러한 측정기준과는 별개로 현장은 다양한 조건이 발생하며 측정성과의 정확도에 영향을 끼치는 경우가 발생하기도 한다. 따라서 유량측정 기준을 잘 준수하는 것도 중요하지만 현장상황을 파악하고 이에 적절한 유량측정을 실시해야 그 오차를 최소화 할 수 있다.

For more reliable estimation of seismic source, attenuation properties and dynamic ground property, site amplification function should be considered. Among various estimation methods, this study used the Nakamura's method (1989) for estimating site amplification characteristics. This method was originally applied to the surface waves of background noise and therefore there are some limitations in applying to general wave energy. However, recently this method has been extended and applied to the S wave energy successfully. This study applied the method to S wave and Coda wave energy, which is equivalent to the backscattered S wave energy. We used more than 60 observed ground motions from 5 earthquakes which were occurred recently, with magnitude range from 3.6 to 5.1. Each station showed characteristic site amplification property in low-, high- and resonance frequencies. Some of the stations showed as high as 4 times of site amplification in the range of specific frequencies, which may imply abnormal small scale geologic strata below the station or development of various trapped modes in the basin structure. Moreover, removal of site amplification can give us more reliable seismic source and attenuation parameters, addition to the seismic hazard estimation.
