Maritime accidents around the Korean Peninsula are increasing, and the ship detection research using remote sensing data is consequently becoming increasingly important. This study presented a new ship detection algorithm using hyperspectral images that provide the spectral information of several hundred channels in the ship detection field, which depends on high resolution optical imagery. We applied a spectral matching algorithm between the reflection spectrum of the ship deck obtained from two field observations and the ship and seawater spectrum of the hyperspectral sensor of an airborne visible/infrared imaging spectrometer. A total of five detection algorithms were used, namely spectral distance similarity (SDS), spectral correlation similarity (SCS), spectral similarity value (SSV), spectral angle mapper (SAM), and spectral information divergence (SID). SDS showed an error in the detection of seawater inside the ship, and SAM showed a clear classification result with a difference between ship and seawater of approximately 1.8 times. Additionally, the present study classified the vessels included in hyperspectral images by presenting the adaptive thresholds of each technique. As a result, SAM and SID showed superior ship detection abilities compared to those of other detection algorithms.

Change detection is the process of identifying changes by observing the multi-temporal images at different times, and it is an important technique in remote sensing using satellite images. Among the change detection methods, the unsupervised change detection technique has the advantage of extracting rapidly the change area as a binary image. However, it is difficult to understand the changing pattern of land cover in binary images. This study used grid points generated from seamless digital map to evaluate the satellite image change detection results. The land cover change results were extracted using multi-temporal KOMPSAT-3A (K3A) data taken by Gimje Free Trade Zone and change detection algorithm used Spectral Angle Mapper (SAM). Change detection results were presented as binary images using the methods Otsu, Kittler, Kapur, and Tsai among the automated threshold selection algorithms. To consider the seasonal change of vegetation in the change detection process, we used the threshold of Differenced Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (dNDVI) through the probability density function. The experimental results showed the accuracy of the Otsu and Kapur was the highest at 58.16%, and the accuracy improved to 85.47% when the seasonal effects were removed through dNDVI. The algorithm generated based on this research is considered to be an effective method for accuracy assessment and identifying changes pattern when applied to unsupervised change detection.

The reservoir is a major water supply source in the domestic agricultural environment, and the monitoring of water storage of reservoirs is important for the utilization and management of agricultural water resource. Remote sensing via satellite imagery can be an effective method for regular monitoring of widely distributed objects such as reservoirs, and in this study, image classification and image segmentation algorithms are applied to Sentinel-1 Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) imagery for water body detection in 53 reservoirs in South Korea. Six algorithms are used: Neural Network (NN), Support Vector Machine (SVM), Random Forest (RF), Otsu, Watershed (WS), and Chan-Vese (CV), and the results of water body detection are evaluated with in-situ images taken by drones. The correlations between the in-situ water surface area and detected water surface area from each algorithm are NN 0.9941, SVM 0.9942, RF 0.9940, Otsu 0.9922, WS 0.9709, and CV 0.9736, and the larger the scale of reservoir, the higher the linear correlation was. WS showed low recall due to the undetected water bodies, and NN, SVM, and RF showed low precision due to over-detection. For water body detection through SAR imagery, we found that aquatic plants and artificial structures can be the error factors causing undetection of water body.

In this manuscript, the UNet++ model, which is one of the representative deep learning techniques for semantic segmentation, was used to detect changes in temporal satellite images. To analyze the learning results according to various loss functions, we evaluated the change detection results using trained UNet++ models by binary cross entropy and the Jaccard coefficient. In addition, the learning results of the deep learning model were analyzed compared to existing pixel-based change detection algorithms by using WorldView-3 images. In the experiment, it was confirmed that the performance of the deep learning model could be determined depending on the characteristics of the loss function, but it showed better results compared to the existing techniques.

This study aims to develop the floating debris detection algorithm using a Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) and multispectral sensors. In addition, the occurrence range of floating debris was estimated by applying the algorithm. An aerial photograph using an unmanned aerial vehicle was used to generate an orthoimage that can calculate the area. A spectrum survey of water, plants litter, polystyrene foam etc. was conducted. After obtaining spectroscopic characteristics of floating debris and water, the River Floating Debris (RFD) index was calculated. And we detected the floating debris through band combination of sensor using RFD. As a result of the RFD application, accumulation zone of floating debris was confirmed at three sites in the orthoimage. It was estimated that a lot of floating debris was accumulated at 0.82 ha ($8,200m^2$), which is corresponding to 3.6% including the accumulation zone.

In stochastic hyperspectral target detection algorithms, the target signal components may be included in the background characterization if targets are not rare in the image, causing target leakage. In this paper, the effect of target leakage is analysed and an improved hyperspectral target detection method is proposed by excluding the pixels which have similar reflectance spectrum with the target in the process of background characterization. Experimental results using the AISA airborne hyperspectral data and simulated data with artificial targets show that the proposed method can dramatically improve the target detection performance of matched filter and adaptive cosine estimator. More studies on the various metrics for measuring spectral similarity and adaptive method to decide the appropriate amount of exclusion are expected to increase the performance and usability of this method.

Change detection and analysis is a powerful application of remote sensing, in that the spectral resolution of multi-band sensors can be used to advantage in monitoring both significant and subtle land cover changes over time. In this study, the LANDSAT TM data was used to detect the change areas affected by flood from a heavy rainfall. The study area is the Nakdong River located in the Korea peninsular. Among the several change detection techniques, change vector analysis(CVA), principle component analysis(PCA) and image difference approach are utilized in this paper. CVA uses any number of spectral bands from multi-date satellite data to produce change image that yield information of the magnitude and direction of differences pixel values. And accuracy assessment was carried out with a change image produced from three techniques. In result, CVA was found to be the most accurate for detecting areas affected by flood. CVA with the overall accuracy and Kappa coefficient of 97.27 percent and 94.45 percent, respectively.

C-band SAR 센서를 탑재한 수자원위성은 한반도 수자원 모니터링을 위해 개발되어 2025년 발사가 계획되어 있으며, 수변환경 및 부유물 탐지 및 다양한 활용이 기대되고 있다. 그 중 수변환경은 수변 생태계 안정성을 유지하는 역할을 담당하여 이에 대한 모니터링은 중요하다. s현장 관측 기반 탐지 방법과 비교하여 위성 원격탐사는 광범위한 지역을 반복적으로 관측하여, 연속적인 수변환경 및 부유물 정보를 제공할 수 있다. 이러한 특성에 기반하여 다양한 다중분광 및 SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar) 위성 원격탐사 자료를 바탕으로 수변환경 및 부유물의 탐지 연구가 이루어졌다. 특히 단일 영상만을 사용하는 기법에 비해 다중분광 및 SAR 영상을 융합하여 높은 정확도를 보인 바 있다. 초기 연구에서는 임계값 알고리즘 또는 현장관측 기반의 부유물 농도와 위성 자료간의 선형관계를 분석하는 단순한 알고리즘이 주를 이루었으나, 최근에는 RF, CNN 등 보다 복잡하고 다양한 인공지능 알고리즘이 적용되어 높은 정확도로 해당 문제들을 해결하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 수자원위성 활용을 위해 인공지능 기반 수변환경 및 부유물 탐지 알고리즘을 개발하고자 한다. 수자원위성의 대체 자료로 유럽우주국의 Sentinel-1 A/B 위성의 C-band SAR 영상을 이용하였으며, 보조자료로 Sentinel-2 다중분광 영상을 이용하였다. 개발된 알고리즘은 수자원 관리를 위한 환경변화 탐지에 유용한 정보로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
