In the paper, we propose the methodology to extract training dataset automatically for supervised classification of road networks. For the preprocessing, we co-register the airborne photos, LIDAR data and large-scale digital maps and then, create orthophotos and intensity images. By overlaying the large-scale digital maps onto generated images, we can extract the initial training dataset for the supervised classification of road networks. However, the initial training information is distorted because there are errors propagated from registration process and, also, there are generally various objects in the road networks such as asphalt, road marks, vegetation, cars and so on. As such, to generate the training information only for the road surface, we apply the Expectation Maximization technique and finally, extract the training dataset of the road surface. For the accuracy test, we compare the training dataset with manually extracted ones. Through the statistical tests, we can identify that the developed method is valid.

In general, RGB, NIR, and thermal images are used for obtaining geospatial data. Such multiband images are collected via devices mounted on satellites or manned flights, but do not always meet users' expectations, due to issues associated with temporal resolution, costs, spatial resolution, and effects of clouds. We believe high-resolution, multiband images can be obtained at desired time points and intervals, by developing a payload suitable for a low-altitude, auto-piloted UAV. To achieve this, this study first established a low-cost, high-resolution multiband image collection system through developing a sensor and a payload, and collected geo-referencing data, as well as RGB, NIR and thermal images by using the system. We were able to obtain a 0.181m horizontal deviation and 0.203m vertical deviation, after analyzing the positional accuracy of points based on ortho mosaic images using the collected RGB images. Since this meets the required level of spatial accuracy that allows production of maps at a scale of 1:1,000~5,000 and also remote sensing over small areas, we successfully validated that the payload was highly utilizable.

In this paper, we propose a method aiming at updating the building information of the digital maps using single high resolution satellite image and digital map. Firstly we produced a digital orthoimage through the automatic co-registration of QuickBird image and 1:1,000 digital map. Secondly we extracted building height information through the template matching of digital map's building vector data and the image's edges obtained by Canny operator. Finally we refined the shape of some buildings by using the result from template matching as the seed polygon of the greedy snake algorithm. In order to evaluate the proposed method's effectiveness, we estimated accuracy of the extracted building information using LiDAR DSM and 1:1,000 digital map. The evaluation results showed the proposed method has a good potential for extraction and revision of building information.

The probabilistic anatomical maps are used to localize the functional neuro-images and morphological variability. The quantitative indicator is very important to inquire the anatomical position of an activated legion because functional image data has the low-resolution nature and no inherent anatomical information. Although previously developed MNI probabilistic anatomical map was enough to localize the data, it was not suitable for the Korean brains because of the morphological difference between Occidental and Oriental. In this study, we develop a probabilistic anatomical map for Korean normal brain. Normal 75 blains of T1-weighted spoiled gradient echo magnetic resonance images were acquired on a 1.5-T GESIGNA scanner. Then, a standard brain is selected in the group through a clinician searches a brain of the average property in the Talairach coordinate system. With the standard brain, an anatomist delineates 89 regions of interest (ROI) parcellating cortical and subcortical areas. The parcellated ROIs of the standard are warped and overlapped into each brain by maximizing intensity similarity. And every brain is automatically labeledwith the registered ROIs. Each of the same-labeled region is linearly normalize to the standard brain, and the occurrence of each legion is counted. Finally, 89 probabilistic ROI volumes are generated. This paper presents a probabilistic anatomical map for localizing the functional and structural analysis of Korean normal brain. In the future, we'll develop the group specific probabilistic anatomical maps of OCD and schizophrenia disease.

This study proposes an automatic method to generate 3D building models using a draft map, which is an intermediate product generated during the map generation process based on aerial photos. The proposed method is to generate a terrain model, roof models, and wall models sequentially from the limited 3D information extracted from an existing draft map. Based on the planar fitting error of the roof corner points, the roof model is generated as a single planar facet or a multiple planar structure. The first type is derived using a robust estimation method while the second type is constructed through segmentation and merging based on a triangular irregular network. Each edge of this roof model is then projected to the terrain model to create a wall facet. The experimental results from its application to real data indicates that the building models of various shapes in wide areas are successfully generated. The proposed method is evaluated to be an cost and time effective method since it utilizes the existing data.

Building information is primary source in many applications such as mapping, telecommunication, car navigation and virtual city modeling. While aerial CCD images which are captured by passive sensor(digital camera) provide horizontal positioning in high accuracy, it is far difficult to process them in automatic fashion due to their inherent properties such as perspective projection and occlusion. On the other hand, LIDAR system offers 3D information about each surface rapidly and accurately in the form of irregularly distributed point clouds. Contrary to the optical images, it is much difficult to obtain semantic information such as building boundary and object segmentation. Photogrammetry and LIDAR have their own major advantages and drawbacks for reconstructing earth surfaces. The purpose of this investigation is to automatically obtain spatial information of 3D buildings by fusing LIDAR data with aerial CCD image. The experimental results show that most of the complex buildings are efficiently extracted by the proposed method and signalize that fusing LIDAR data and aerial CCD image improves feasibility of the automatic detection and extraction of buildings in automatic fashion.

좁은지역에 대한 지형정보의 획득은 저고도 UAV시스템을 이용하는 것이 경제적이다. 최근 자동항법 UAV의 발전은 저고도 고해상도 영상을 원하는 주기로 얻을 수 있어 많은 분야에 응용하고 있다. 이러한 UAV시스템은 지상관제센터와 비행체 간의 긴밀한 통신이 이루어져야 하며 촬영 중 영상의 획득 여부를 모니터링할 수 있어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 NASA가 개발한 Worldwind를 커스터마이징하여 실시간 영상획득 모니터링 s/w를 개발하였다. 또한 개발시스템을 이용하여 정사영상 모자익을 실시하였으며 이에대한 정확도 분석을 실시하였다. 분석결과 검사점에 대해 정사모자익영상의 수평위치 정확도를 분석한 결과 X좌표에서 평균 0.181m, Y좌표에서 평균 0.203m의 편차를 보임으로써 1:1,000~5,000축척의 수치지도제작이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

일반적으로 수치사진측량시스템을 통해 도심지역에서 자동으로 DEM을 추출하는 경우 해석도화원도에서 추출하는 DEM에 비하여 정확도가 크게 저하되어 도심지역에 대한 정사투영영상 생성이나 정사투영영상을 이용한 수치지도 제작시 품질저하의 요인이 되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 수치사진측량기법을 이용한 도심지역 지형공간정보 생성시 정확도에 영향을 크게 미치는 도심지역 DEM의 정확도를 향상시키는데 목적이 있다. 본 논문의 수행결과, 수치사진측량기법을 이용하여 도심지역에 대한 DEM 추출시 대상지역에 대한 지형분류를 통한 DEM추출방법을 적용하여 도심지역에 대한 DEM의 정확도를 향상시킬 수 있었다.

Several decades have passed since tiltrotor technology became a hot issue of debates between aircraft majors, policy maker and mass-media. Although most of those subjects have been officially probed or answered in objective way, biased articles or argues related with the adequacy of this technology still prevail in the way of tilt-rotor development programs, which are totally irrelevant and out-dated. This paper aims to help understanding on those issues in technically balanced manner and the cases of flight test mishaps.
