최근, 우리나라에서는 공학교육의 인증 시스템을 도입하고 있다. 이것은 전세계적인 추세가 되어 가고 있으며, 향후 국가 간의 기술사 상호 인정의 기본 요건이 될 전망이다. 원격탐사의 경우 과학과 공학은 물론 인문 사회 분야까지 다양한 분야에서 활용되고 있으나, 최근의 추세로 보면 공학적 활용이 점차 증가하고 있음을 알 수 있다. 따라서, 우리나라의 공학교육 인증 시스템 도입에 발맞추어 원격탐사의 공학적 교육에 대한 검토가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 공학교육 인증 시스템을 검토하고, 이를 기준으로 한 원격탐사 분야에서의 공학교육의 방향을 정립하고자 하였다.

인공위성을 통해 취득된 데이터들은 지상국의 수신처리시스템을 거쳐 표준영상으로 생산되며, 생산된 영상으로부터 사용자에게 의미 있고, 가치 있는 정보를 이끌어 내는 판독의 단계를 수행하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 원격탐사의 전반적인 이해를 돕기 위한 교육적 모델로서 캔샛 프로그램을 도입하였다. 캔샛 프로그램은 스탠포드대 로버트 트윙 교수의 제안으로 학생들에게 한 학기의 짧은 시간에 실제 인공위성의 설계, 해석, 제작, 조립, 시험, 발사, 운용 등 전반적인 시스템의 이해를 도모하기 위한 1Kg 이하의 캔 크기의 초소형 위성을 개발하는 교육 프로그램이다. 본 연구는 한국과학영재학교 R&E 프로그램의 지원으로 시작하였으며, 실제 초소형 위성 캔샛('KSAsat'으로 명명)을 직접 설계, 제작, 조립하고 최종적으로 발사 운용 시험을 수행하였다. 주 탑재체로 일반 상용 디지털 카메라를 장착하였으며, GPS, 광센서, 3 축 가속도계, 온도센서, 압력센서를 탑재하였다. 비행시험을 통해 성공적으로 영상을 취득하고, 각종 센서로부터의 데이터를 지상국으로 전송 받았다. 지상국을 통해 처리 되어진 데이터로부터 의미 있는 정보를 추출하는 판단의 단계를 거쳐 원격탐사의 전반적인 교육을 성공적으로 수행할 수 있었다. 본 논문에서 캔샛 프로그램이 원격탐사 교육에도 충분히 활용될 수 있음을 보였다.

This paper presents a fuzzy relaxation labeling approach incorporated to the fuzzy logic fusion scheme for the classification of multi-sensor remote sensing images. The fuzzy logic fusion and iterative relaxation labeling techniques are adopted to effectively integrate multi-sensor remote sensing images and to incorporate spatial neighboring information into spectral information for contextual classification, respectively. Especially, the iterative relaxation labeling approach can provide additional information that depicts spatial distributions of pixels updated by spatial information. Experimental results for supervised land-cover classification using optical and multi-frequency/polarization images indicate that the use of multi-sensor images and spatial information can improve the classification accuracy.

The application of spatial statistics to obtain the spatial uncertainty distributions in classification of remote sensing images is investigated in this paper. Two quantitative methods are presented for describing two kinds of uncertainty; one related to class assignment and the other related to the connection of reference samples. Three quantitative indices are addressed for the first category of uncertainty. Geostatistical simulation is applied both to integrate the exhaustive classification results with the sparse reference samples and to obtain the spatial uncertainty or accuracy distributions connected to those reference samples. To illustrate the proposed methods and to discuss the operational issues, the experiment was done on a multi-sensor remote sensing data set for supervised land-cover classification. As an experimental result, the two quantitative methods presented in this paper could provide additional information for interpreting and evaluating the classification results and more experiments should be carried out for verifying the presented methods.

This paper presents two methods for automatic estimation of threshold values in unsupervised change detection of multi-temporal remote sensing images. The proposed methods consist of two analytical steps. The first step is to compute the parameters of a 3-component Gaussian mixture model from difference or ratio images. The second step is to determine a threshold value using Bayesian rule for minimum error. The first method which is an extended version of Bruzzone and Prieto' method (2000) is to apply an Expectation-Maximization algorithm for estimation of the parameters of the Gaussian mixture model. The second method is based on an iterative thresholding algorithm that successively employs thresholding and estimation of the model parameters. The effectiveness and applicability of the methods proposed here were illustrated by two experiments and one case study including the synthetic data sets and KOMPSAT-1 EOC images. The experiments demonstrate that the proposed methods can effectively estimate the model parameters and the threshold value determined shows the minimum overall error.

Natural and environmental disasters are recently increasing in frequency and complexity worldwide due to the rapid expansion of overpopulation, industrialization, and urbanization. Thus, analyzing past critical events/disasters in deep and preparing for future disasters in terms of risk identification, assessment and management are imperative requirements. In this special issue, we introduce several interesting studies covering disaster risk management and observation technologies for the heat waves, particulate matters, floods, drought, and earthquake using remote sensing and GIS performed by i-SEED (School of Integrated Science for Sustainable Earth & Environmental Disaster at Pukyong National University). We expect that the results of this special issue provide comprehensive information on the risk management and damage prevention of natural and environmental disasters and offer guidance on the application to future disasters to reduce their risks and impacts.

Recently, the number of natural and environmental disasters is rapidly increasing due to extreme weather caused by climate change, and the scale of economic losses and damage to human life is increasing accordingly. In addition, with urbanization and industrialization, the characteristics and scale of extreme weather appearance are becoming more complex and large in different ways from the past, and need for remote sensing and artificial intelligence technology for responding and managing global environmental disasters. This special issue investigates environmental disaster observation and management research using remote sensing and artificial intelligence technology, and introduces the results of disaster-related studies such as drought, flood, air pollution, and marine pollution, etc. in South Korea performed by the i-SEED (School of Integrated Science for Sustainable Earth and Environmental Disaster at Pukyong National University). In this special issue, we expect that the results can contribute to the development of monitoring and management technologies that may prevent environmental disasters and reduce damage in advance.

In this study, temporal trend of researches in earthquake with groundwater level, water quality, radon, remote sensing, electrical resistivity, gravity, and geomagnetism was searched from 2001 to 2020, using the journals indexed in Web of Science, and the number of articles published in international journals was counted in relation to the occurrences of earthquakes (≥Mw 5.0, ≥Mw 6.0, ≥Mw 7.0, ≥Mw 8.0, and ≥Mw 9.0). The number of articles shows an increasing trend over the studied period. This is explained by that studies on earthquake precursor and seismic monitoring becomes active in various fields with integrated data analysis through the development of remote sensing technology, progress of measurement equipment, and big data. According to Mann-Kendall and Sen's tests, gravity-related articles exhibit an increasing trend of 1.30 articles/yr, radon-related articles (0.60 articles/yr), groundwater-related articles (0.70 articles/yr), electrical resistivity-related articles (0.25 articles/yr), and remote-sensing-related articles (0.67 articles/yr). By cross-correlation analysis of the number of articles in each field with removing trend effect and the number of earthquakes of ≥Mw 5.0, ≥Mw 6.0, ≥Mw 7.0, ≥Mw 8.0, and ≥Mw 9.0, radon and remote sensing fields exhibit a high cross-correlation with a delay time of one year. In addition, large-scale earthquakes such as the 2004 and 2005 Sumatra earthquake, the 2008 Sichuan earthquake, the 2010 Haiti earthquake, and the 2010 Chile earthquake are estimated to be related with the increase in the number of articles in the corresponding periods.

Korea has a terrain vulnerable to drought due to the concentration of precipitation in summer and the large amount of groundwater discharge. Quantified drought indices are used to determine these droughts. Among these, drought index is mainly used for analysis of precipitation, and recently, researches have been conducted to monitor drought using satellite images. In this study, we used the KOMPSAT-2/3 image to calculate the water surface area and compare with the drought index in order to monitor the drought in the Upper Soyang River. As a result, it was confirmed that the tendency of the water surface area change and the trend of the drought index were similar in the satellite images. Future research could be used as a basis for judging drought.
