To acquire an underwater topographic information is necessary for the design and construction of structures in marine and inland water. It consists of water depth information by bathymetric survey and underwater bottom topography image information can be obtained by side scan sonar in different ways. For the purpose of providing high quality data by means of engineering site survey, it is necessary to apply simultaneous acquisition of two information and carry out the integrated interpretation to each other. The present research aims to obtain information of the underwater topography and water depth at the same time using interferometer technique, and to validate interferometer technique with accuracy estimation.

In this study, we analyze seabottom conditions and characteristics integrated with topographic data, seafloor mosaic, underwater images and orthophoto(drone) of soft-hard bottom area around the Sib-Ri rock in the northern shore of the East Sea(Gyeongpo Beach, Gangneung). We obtained field survey data around the Sib-Ri rock(about 600 m × 600 m). The Sib-Ri rock is formed by two exposed rocks and surrounding reef. The artificial reef zone made by about 200 ~ 300 structures is shown the western area of the Sib-Ri rock. The underwater rock region is extended from the southwestern area of the exposed the Sib-Ri rock with 9 ~ 11 m depth range. The most broad rocky seabottom area is located in the southwestren area of the Sib-Ri rock with 10 ~ 13 m depth range. The study area were classified into 4 types of seabottom environment based on the analysis of bathymetric data, seafloor mosaics, composition of sediments and images(underwater and drone). The underwater rock zones(Type I) are the most distributed area around the Sib-Ri Rock(about 600 m × 600 m). The soft seabottom area made by sediments layer showed 2 types(Type II: gS(gravelly Sand), Type III: S(Sand)) in the areas between underwater rock zones and western part of the Sib-Ri rock(toward Gyeongpo Beach). The artificial reef zone with a lot of structures is located in the western part of the Sib-Ri rock. Marine algae(about 6 species), Phylum porifera(about 2 species), Phylum echinodermata(about 3 species), Phylum mollusca(about 3 species) and Phylum chordata(about 2 species) are dominant faunal group of underwater image analysis area(about 10 m × 10 m) in the northwestern part of the Sib-Ri rock. The habitat of Phylym mollusca(Lottia dorsuosa, Septifer virgatus) and Phylum arthropoda(Pollicipes mitella, Chthamalus challengeri hoek) appears in the intertidal zone of the Sib-Ri rock. And it is possible to estimate the range and distribution of the habitat based on the integrated study of orthphoto(drone) and bathymetry data. The integrated visualization and mapping techniques using seafloor mosaic images, sediments analysis, underwater images, orthophoto(drone) and topographic data can provide and contribute to figure out the seabottom conditions and characteristics in the shore of the East Sea.

The purpose of this study is to integrate and visualize using mapping techniques based on precise seabed geomorphology, seafloor backscattering images and high-resolution underwater images of the nearshore area around the Dokdo, in the East Sea. We have been obtained the precise topography map using multibeam echosounder system around the nearshore area(~50 m) of the southern part of the Seodo. Side scan sonar survey for analysis seafloor backscattering images was carried out in the same area of topography data. High-resolution underwater images(zone(a), zone(b), zone(c)) were taken in significant habitat scope of the nearshore area of the southern part of the Seodo. Using the results of bathymetry, seafloor backscattering images, high-resolution underwater images, we performed an integrated visualization about the nearshore area of the Dokdo. The integrated visualizing techniques are possible to make the seabed characteristic mapping results of the nearshore area of the Dokdo. The integrated visualization results present more complex and reliable information than separate geological products for seabed environmental mapping study and it is useful to understand the relation between seafloor characteristics and topographic environments of the study area. The integrated visualizing techniques and mapping analysis need to study sustainably and periodically, for effective monitoring of the nearshore ecosystem of the Dokdo.

Presently many constructions establish in underwater, but approaching to underwater constructions are difficult, for comparing with ground, underwater environment is different in media. Usually measurement methods for underwater constructions are using tapes, using depth gauges, using acoustic positioning systems. But, tapes are hard to measure the correct distance, for applying a right tension is not easy in underwater. Depth gauges have a weakness in settling, for it takes long time to do it. Acoustic positioning systems don't work well in confined spaces and cost a lot. Hence, the purpose of this study is, at first, to understand rays path in multimedia like water, glass and air. The second thing is to perform a camera calibration at the field to compare with the interior orientation parameter. And the third thing is to find out whether photogrammetry is applied for underwater object in using cube for accuracy examination. The last thing is to perform underwater photogrammetry about underwater object, which is pier model and riverbed. We came to the conclusion through this experiment that the applying underwater photogrammerty for underwater constructions and underwater ground is possible.

조수간만의 차가 크고 지형이 복잡한 우리나라서 해안은 세계적으로도 보기 드문 강조류 환경이다. 잠수부의 안전을 위협하는 이러한 환경은 수중로봇의 접근도 쉽게 허락하지 않는다. 해저로봇 크랩스터는 이러한 특수한 환경을 조사하기 위해 고안된 수중보행로봇이다. 기존의 프로펠러 방식으로 달성하기 어려웠던 문제점을 크랩스터 로봇은 게나 가재와 같은 수중 생명체를 모방하여 극복하고자 했다. 크랩스터는 게나 가재의 기능을 모방함으로써 강조류 악시계 환경에서 유용한 두 가지 특징을 얻는다. 첫째는 해저에 밀착하여 자세를 제어함으로써 조류력을 이용하여 자세를 안정화시키면서 이동할 수 있다. 둘째는 조류 속에서 동요하지 않는 안정된 자세를 바탕으로 깨끗한 초음파 영상을 얻을 수 있다. 이는 강조류 환경에서 동반되는 부유물에 의한 악시계 환경을 극복할 수 있는 중요한 수단을 제공한다. 본 고에서는 이러한 개념에 따라 설계 개발된 크랩스터 CR200의 구성과 사양을 소개하고, 여기에 사용된 핵심기술을 살펴본다. 또한, 최근 수행된 CR200의 시험 결과에 대해서도 요약 소개한다.

울릉분지 북동쪽 독도 주변 해역은 해수면 위의 작은 섬들과 해저에 큰 화산체로 구성된 독도와 해수면 아래 큰 규모의 해산 두 개(심흥택해산, 이사부해산)가 위치하고 있으며 그 중 해수면위로는 독도만 솟아 있다. 정밀해저면영상기(MS-1000)를 이용하여 큰 규모의 조사선으로 접근이 어려웠던 동도-서도 주변 연안에 대한 정밀해저면영상 조사를 2010년 1월에 소형조사선을 이용하여 수행하였다. 부두 동쪽 해안은 동도와 근접하고 있어 큰 규모의 돌출 암반이 많이 분포하고 있으며 부두 북쪽으로는 모래층의 연흔구조가 많이 나타나며 소규모의 암반 및 자갈들이 많이 분포하는 것으로 판단된다. 동도와 서도사이의 해저면영상을 분석해보면 동도 선착장부근으로는 모래퇴적물의 연흔구조가 많이 나타나고 동도와 서도 중앙부로 가면서 모래보다는 작은 자갈들이 많이 분포하며 서도쪽으로 가면서는 모래 및 자갈퇴적물이 암반구조로 이루어져있는 것으로 판단된다. 정밀해저면영상기(MS-1000)는 고정밀한 해저면영상을 획득할 수 있으며 불규칙한 지형으로 기존 장비가 접근하없어지며기 어려운 해저지형에도 사용하기 적합한 것으로 판단된다. 향후 항구 및 해안구조물 등과 같은 고정밀해저면영상이 필요한 분야에 활용성이 높을 것으로 생각되고 또한 유지/보수가 필요한 수중 군시설 및 부두시설에 대한 정밀조사를 통하여 효율적 관리 정보제공할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

We analyzed the characteristics of the habitat environment for the Seonam study area in Ulsan, the southern shore of the East Sea using bathymetry and seafloor environment data. The depth of the study area ranges from about 0 m to 23 m. In the west of the study area, the water depth is shallow with a gentle slope, and the water depth becomes deeper with a steep slope in the east. Due to the right-lateral strike-slip faults located in the continental margin of the East Sea, the fracture surfaces of the seabed rocks are mainly in the N-S direction, which is similar to the direction of the strike faults. Three seafloor types (conglomeratic-grained sandy, coasre-graiend sandy, fine-grained sandy) and rocky bottom area have been classified according to the analyses of the bathymerty, seafloor image, and surface sediment data. The rocky bottom areas are mainly distributed around Seaoam and in the northern and southern coastal area. But the intermediate zone between Seonam and coastal area has no rocky bottom. This intermediate area is expected to have active sedimentation as seawater way. The sandy sediments are widely distributed throughout the study area. Underwater images and UAV images show that Cnidarians, Brachiopods, Mollusks are mostly dominant in the shallow habitat and various Nacellidae, Mytilidae live on the intertidal zone around Seonam. Annelida and Arthropod are dominant in the sandy sediments. The distribution of marine organism in the study area might be greatly influenced by the seafloor type, the composition and particle size distribution of the seafloor sediments. The analysis of habitat environment mapping with bathymetry, seafloor data and underwater images is supposed to contribute to the study of the structure and function of marine ecosystem.

In this study, we analyze precise seabed geomorphology and conditions for comparing the nearshore areas of the Dongdo(East Island) and the Seodo(West Island) using detailed bathymetry data and seafloor backscattering images, in Dokdo, the East Sea. We have been obtained the detailed bathymetry data and the seafloor backscattering data. The survey range is about $250m{\times}250m$ including land of islets to the nearshore areas of the southern part of the Dongdo and the Seodo. As a result of bathymetry survey, the southern area of the Dongdo(~50 m) is deeper than the Seodo(~30 m) in the water depth. The survey areas are consist of extended bedrocks from land of the Dongdo and the Seodo. The underwater rock region of the Seodo is larger than the Dongdo. In spite of similar extended rocks features from islets, there are some distinctive seabed characteristics between the southern nearshore areas of the Dongdo and the Seodo. The Talus-shaped seafloor environment formed by gravel and underwater rocks originating from the land of the Dongdo is up to about 15 m depth. And the boundary line of between extended bedrocks and seabottom is unclear in the southern nearshore of the Dongdo. On the other hand, the southern coast of the Seodo is characterized by relatively large scale underwater rocks and evenly distributed sediments, which clearly distinguish the boundary of between extended bedrocks and seafloor. This is because the tuff layers exposed to the coastal cliffs of the Dongdo are weak against weathering and erosion. It is considered that there are more influences of the clastic sediments carried from the land of the Dongdo compared with the Seodo. Particularly, the land of the Dongdo has been undergoing construction activities. And also a highly unstable ground such as faults, joints and cracks appears in the Dongdo. In previous study, there are dissimilar features of the massive tuff breccia formations of the Dongdo and the Seodo. These conditions are thought to have influenced the different seabed characteristics in the southern nearshore areas of the Dongdo and the Seodo.

The present study investigated the temporal changes of river habitats caused by construction and operation of the three large weirs (Sejong, Gongju, and Baekje) in the Geum River. High resolution satellite imagery taken during three periods (preconstruction, before and after gate operation) were used for habitat analysis. We divided bar area into eight habitat types in addition to water area. Then, we identified the nine habitat types from the satellite imagery and estimated each habitat area. Our results show that after weir construction, large bar areas were dramatically decreased and bareland was nearly absent post gate-operation in all three weirs. However, total bar area and bareland were again increased distinctively soon after weir opening events, especially in the uppermost weir, the Sejongbo. These results suggest that weir opening operations provide a relatively simple channel of more diverse through the process of increasing bar area in a river channel.
