Recently mean stand height has been added as new attribute to forest type maps, but it is often too costly and time consuming to manually measure 9,100,000 points from countrywide stereo aerial photos. In addition, tree heights are frequently measured around tombs and forest edges, which are poor representations of the interior tree stand. This work proposes an estimation of mean stand height using an image-based point cloud, which was extracted from stereo aerial photo with FUSION S/W. Then, a digital terrain model was created by filtering the DSM point cloud and subtracting the DTM from DSM, resulting in nDSM, which represents object heights (buildings, trees, etc.). The RMSE was calculated to compare differences in tree heights between those observed and extracted from the nDSM. The resulting RMSE of average total plot height was 0.96 m. Individual tree heights of the whole study site area were extracted using the USDA Forest Service's FUSION S/W. Finally, mean stand height was produced by averaging individual tree heights in a stand polygon of the forest type map. In order to automate the mean stand height extraction using photogrammetric methods, a module was developed as an ArcGIS add-in toolbox.

항공사진이나 고해상도 위성영상으로부터 건물의 정보를 추출하기 위한 많은 연구들이 이전부터 수행되어 왔다. 많은 연구들은 스테레오 영상을 이용하여 DEM을 생성하고 이로부터 3차원 건물 정보를 추출하였다 본 연구에서는 단일 위성영상만을 이용하여 3차원 건물 정보를 추출하는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안된 방식은 가상의 그림자를 영상에 투영시키고, 투영된 그림자와 영상 위에 나타난 실제 건물의 그림자가 일치했을 때, 건물의 높이를 결정한다 결정된 건물 높이를 이용하여 연직선을 생성시키고, 이 연직선을 따라서 건물의 지붕 외곽선을 이동시키면, 이동된 지붕 외곽선은 건물의 바닥 외곽선이 된다. 이를 통해서 건물의 높이와 위치 정보를 취득할 수 있다. 건물이 밀집한 지역에서는 지표면에 나타난 건물의 그림자가 다른 건물에 가려지는 경우가 많다 이러한 경우를 고려하여 제안된 알고리즘은 지표면 위에 나타난 그림자를 이용한 방법과 그림자를 가린 건물 정면에 나타난 그림자를 이용한 방법을 사용한다. 알고리즘의 검증을 위해서 본 연구에서는 스테레오 영상에서 추출한 건물의 높이와 본 연구에서 제안한 알고리즘으로 추출한 건물의 높이를 비교하였다. 두 방법에 대해서 각각 30개의 건물 높이를 비교한 결과 RMSE는 약 1.5 m로 나타났다.

The purpose of this study is to produce digital elevation model (DEM) in the Jebu tidal flat, one of the west coast of the Korean Peninsula, by means of photogrammetric techniques from aerial digital stereo-images. Produced DEM would be become the fundamental data for change detection of the sediment and erosion. To do so, epipolar line is established by relative orientation. Area-based matching is then carried out based on this line and matching size according to surface property of tidal flat after a classified image is produced from reflectance and texture of the surface. As the results, DEM generated by the proposed method showed subtle changes in height more precisely than DEM using the fixed matching size and DEM by the commercial S/W in the region, such as tidal flats having few level differences.

A new stereo matching method for the relative orientation and the photogrammetric triangulation has been pro-posed. It matches the pairs of conjugate points to be used as pass points and tie points in digital aerial photographs instead of selecting these points with manual point transfer and measurements. Three unique steps included in the proposed matching method are as followings. The first step is searching interest points, and designating them as candidate points to be matched. The second is matching the points from the pair of images by the Cross Correlation Method in both direction(left to right direction and right to left). The third is selecting consistent pairs in the both matching directions. Computer programs based on the proposed matching method have been developed, and with digital aerial photographs which have full ground coordinate information tests were performed to know reliabiliy and positional accuracy of proposed method. Results of the tests reveal that the proposed matching method can eliminate the in-correctly matched pairs more efficiently than other matching methods, thus this can be more reliably applied to the relative orientation and the photogrammetric triangulation.

In this study, we investigate the feasibility of modeling entire image strips that has been acquired from the same orbital segments. We tested sensor models based on satellite orbit and attitude with different sets(Type1 ~ Type4) of unknowns. We checked the accuracy of orbit modeling by establishing sensor models of one scene using control points extracted from the scene and by applying the models to adjacent scenes within the same orbital segments. Results indicated that modeling of individual scenes with 1st or 2nd order unknowns was recommended. We tested the accuracy of around control points, digital map using the HIST-DPW (Hanjin Information Systems & Telecommunication Digital Photogrammetric Workstation) As a result, we showed that the orbit-based sensor model is a suitable sensor model for making 1/25,000 digital map.

The subject of this study is to apply experimentally In resolution stereo imagery of IKONOS to producing 1:50,000 scale maps for Munsan area in Paju, being near the Military Demarcation Line, is inaccessible for aerial photography. Ground control points were acquired from GPS surveying to perform geometric corrections on images. Digital maps were produced from IKONOS stereo imagery on the digital photographic workstation. From field investigation, RMS errors of the plane and vertical positions are estimated respectively at $\pm$1.706m and $\pm$1.231m, respectively. These plane and vertical accuracies are within the tolerance limits of those provided in the NGIS Digital Topographic Map Production Rules. Therefore this suggested method is recommended for producing the large scale digital maps of 'No flight' zone near the M.D.L.

Long-term coastal topographical data is critical for analyzing temporal and spatial changes in shorelines. Especially understanding the change trends is essential for future coastal management. For this research, in the data preparation, we obtained digital aerial images, terrestrial laser scanning data and UAV images in the year of 2009. 2018 and 2019 respectively. Also tidal observation data obtained by the Korea Hydrographic and Oceanographic Agency were used for Bangamoeri beach located in Ansan, Gyeonggi-do. In the process of it, we applied the photogrammetric technique to extract the coastline of 4.40 m from the stereo images of 2009 by stereoscopic viewing. In 2018, digital elevation model was generated by using the raw data obtained from the laser scanner and the corresponding shoreline was semi-automatically extracted. In 2019, a digital elevation model was generated from the drone images to extract the coastline. Finally the change rate of shorelines was calculated using Digital Shoreline Analysis System. Also qualitative analysis was presented.

The subjects of this study are to examine and to apply the methods of making 1 : 10,000 scale digital maps using Russian's 2 m resolution satellite images of Alternative and 8 m resolution stereo satellite images of MK-4 for the Kyoha area of Paju-city where aerial-photo surveying is not possible. A digital elevation model (DEM) was calculated from MK-4 images. With this DEM, the Alternative images were orthorectified. Ground control points (GCP) were acquired from GPS surveyings and were used to perform geometric corrections on Alternative images. From field investigation, thematic attributes are digitized on the monitor. RMS errors of the planar and vertical positions are estimated to ${\pm}0.4$ m and ${\pm}15$ m, respectively. The planar accuracy is better than an accuracy required by NGIS (national GIS) programs. Local information from field investigation was added and the resulting maps should be good as base maps for, such as, regional and urban plannings.

RIn this research, digital elevation models, true-ortho image and 3-dimensional digital complied data was generated and evaluated using unmanned aircraft vehicle stereoscopic images by applying photogrammetric principles. In order to implement stereoscopic vision, digital Photogrammetric Workstation should be used necessarily. For conducting this, in this study GEOMAPPER 1.0 is used. That was developed by the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy. To realize stereoscopic vision using two overlapping images of the unmanned aerial vehicle, the interior and exterior orientation parameters should be calculated. Especially lens distortion of non-metric camera must be accurately compensated for stereoscope. In this work. photogrammetric orientation process was conducted using commercial Software, PhotoScan 1.4. Fixed wing KRobotics KD-2 was used for the acquisition of UAV images. True-ortho photo was generated and digital topographic map was partially produced. Finally, we presented error analysis on the generated digital complied map. As the results, it is confirmed that the production of digital terrain map with a scale 1:2,500~1:3,000 is available using stereoscope method.
