본 논문에서는 퍼지 기법을 이용하여 구름의 종류를 분석하는 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 방법은 각각 영상에 대해 R채널의 임계치를 적용하여 잡음을 제거하며, 잡음 영역이 제거된 각각의 근적외 영상과 가시 영상의 반사 특성 및 근적외 영상과 적외 영상의 방출 특성의 특징을 구한 후, 각각의 임계치를 적용하여 1차적으로 구름을 판별한다. 1차적으로 구름 판별에서 제외된 영역에 대해서는 가시 및 적외 영상의 R 채널 값을 퍼지 기법에 적용하여 2차적으로 구름의 종류를 판별한다. 1차적으로 판별된 구름 영역과 2차적으로 판별된 구름 영역을 합성하여 최종 구름 영역을 도출한다. 제안된 방법을 실험한 결과, 기존의 구름 분류 방법보다 제안된 방법이 구름 분류의 성능이 개선된 것을 확인하였다.

본 논문에서는 퍼지 기법을 이용하여 구름의 종류를 분석하는 방법을 제안한다. 본 논문에서는 가시 영상과 적외 영상을 대상으로 육지 영역은 RGB 컬러 정보 중에 G 채널 값의 수치가 높고, 바다영역에서는 B 채널 값의 수치가 높다는 정보를 이용한다. 이 정보를 이용하여 육지 영역에서는 R과 B 채널 값을 적용하고, 바다 영역에서는 R과 G 채널 값을 적용한다. 가시 영상과 적외 영상에서 임계치를 적용하여 잡음(구름 이외의 영역)을 제거하고, 잡음을 제거한 영상에서 육지 영역과 바다 영역을 구분한 후, 각 R, G, B 채널 정보를 퍼지 기법에 적용하여 구름 영역을 판별한다. 그리고 가시영상과 적외 영상에 모두 포함된 구름 영역에 대해서는 두 영상을 합성하여 구름을 판별한다. 제안된 기법을 구름 분류에 적용한 결과, 제안된 방법이 기존의 양자화를 적용한 방법보다 구름의 분류 성능이 개선된 것을 확인하였다.

In this study, we analyzed the spatio-temporal variations of satellite imagery for the two heavy rainfall cases (21 September, 2010, 9 August, 2011) occurred in the Korean Peninsula. In general, the possibility of strong convection can be increased when the region with plenty of moisture at the lower layer overlapped with the boundary between dark and bright area in the water vapor imagery. And the merging of convective cells caused by the difference in the moving velocities of two cells resulted in the intensification of convective activity and rainfall intensity. The rainfall intensity is more closely linked with the minimum cloud top temperature than the mean cloud top temperature. Also the spatio-temporal variations of rainfall intensity are impacted by the existence of merging processes. The merging can be predicted by the animation of satellite imagery but earlier detection of convective cells is almost impossible by using the infrared and water vapor imagery.

In recent years, application of UAV(Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) to seed sowing and pest control has been actively carried out in the field of agriculture. In this study, UAS(Unmanned Aerial System) is constructed by combining image sensor of various wavelength band and SfM((Structure from Motion) based image analysis technique in UAV. Utilization of UAS based vegetation survey was investigated and the applicability of precision farming was examined. For this purposes, a UAS consisting of a combination of a VIS_RGB(Visible Red, Green, and Blue) image sensor, a modified BG_NIR(Blue Green_Near Infrared Red) image sensor, and a TIR(Thermal Infrared Red) sensor with a wide bandwidth of $7.5{\mu}m$ to $13.5{\mu}m$ was constructed for a low cost UAV. In addition, a total of ten vegetation indices were selected to investigate the chlorophyll, nitrogen and water contents of plants with visible, near infrared, and infrared wavelength's image sensors. The images of each wavelength band for the test area were analyzed and the correlation between the distribution of vegetation index and the vegetation index were compared with status of the previously surveyed vegetation and ground cover. The ability to perform vegetation state detection using images obtained by mounting multiple image sensors on low cost UAV was investigated. As the utility of UAS equipped with VIS_RGB, BG_NIR and TIR image sensors on the low cost UAV has proven to be more economical and efficient than previous vegetation survey methods that depend on satellites and aerial images, is expected to be used in areas such as precision agriculture, water and forest research.

Recently, civil complaints have increased due to water pollution and bad smell in rivers. Therefore, attention is focused on improving the river environment. The purpose of this study is to acquire RGB and thermal infrared images using UAV for sewage outlet and to monitor the status of stream pollution and the applicability UAV based images for river embankment maintenance plan was examined. The accuracy of the 3D model was examination by SfM(Structure from Motion) based images analysis on river embankment maintenance area. Especially, The wastewater discharged from the factory near the river was detected as an thermal infrared images and the flow of wastewater was monitored. As a result of the study, we could monitor the cause and flows of wastewater pollution by detecting temperature change caused by wastewater inflow using UAV images. In addition, UAV based a high precision 3D model (DTM, Digital Topographic Map, Orthophoto Mosaic) was produced to obtain precise DSM(Digital Surface Model) and vegetation cover information for river embankment maintenance.

In this paper, we proposed a method to analyze kind of clouds using a fuzzy reasoning method. In the proposed method, we used the clues that G channel value is dominant from RGB color values in land areas and B channel value is dominant in the sea areas discovered by the analyses of both visible images and infrared images. By these information, R and B channel values are applied to land areas and R and G channel values are applied to the sea areas. Noise areas(areas except cloud areas) are removed from a visible image and an infrared image by a threshold value, and then land areas and the sea areas are discriminated from the noise removed image. Cloud areas are extracted from discriminated areas using R, G, B channel values and a fuzzy reasoning method, and finally kind of clouds is decided by combining same cloud areas included in both the visible image and the infrared image. In comparison with a conventional quantization method, we verified that the performance of cloud analysis by the proposed method is more efficient through experiments.

When simulate long distance infrared image in the laboratory the Infrared Refractive Collimator is used. In this case, infrared light reflected from the surface of the lens and target. The reflected infrared light causes Narcissus. Narcissus degrades the quality of the infrared image. To minimize Narcissus optimize the reflective index and placement of the lenses, lenses and target surface coated.

In this paper, impacts on the COMS MI images during the COMS eclipse period were analyzed and the method to eliminate the contaminated area was investigated. Main effect on the meteorological images during the eclipse is a stripping effect due to a strong stray light. The quantitative analyses were conducted during the COMS In-Orbit-Test period and the impacts of the stray light on the four infrared channels of the COMS MI according to the distance with respect to the Sun were examined. Based on the typical case of the stray light influence on the infrared channel of the MI, the intensity of contamination due to the stray light was investigated for each channel using the computed COMS eclipse information. The effectiveness of removal of a contaminated area by replacing the SWIR with the combined WINDOW channels was promising.

In 2014, Japan is scheduled to launch GCOM(Global Change Observation Mission)-C for the global change observation mission, where SGLI(Second-generation Global Imager) is planned for optical multi-channel observation ofa radiation budget and a carbon cycle. Depending on the spectral channels, SGLI consists ofS GLI-VNR(Visible Near IR) and SGLI-IRS(IR Scanning). Their main design schemes are mostly based upon those ofthe previous instruments ever developed in Japan, which is intended to reduce the development risk for the advanced performance. Accordingly, for the better understanding ofSG LI, the paper reviews the history oft he Japanese optical payloads from two different views: VNR and IR. Through the review, a comparison among the Japanese optical instruments is made to distinguish the development trend toward SGLI ofGC OM-C.

위성을 이용한 원격탐사 기술이 발전하고 다양한 산출물이 나타남에 따라 수자원 및 하천관리에서의 원격탐사기술의 활용의 폭이 넓어지고 있다. 특히, 위성에서 관측할 수 있는 다양한 정보들을 이용하여 수자원 및 하천관리에 사용하려하는 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있으며, 기본적인 가시영상 이외에도 적외영상, 초분광영상, 수위정보, 레이더 반사도 등을 활용하여 수문량을 추정하려는 시도가 이루어져왔다. 원격탐사의 대표적인 장비인 위성은 광범위한 정보를 쉽게 취득할 수 있지만 위성마다 탑재된 센서에 따라 획득할 수 있는 자료가 서로 다르고, 산출물의 시공간 해상도에 따라 자료의 질이 결정된다. 본 연구에서는 원격탐사영상을 이용한 하천유량추정기법을 수립하기 위해 통제된 실험하천 규모에서 드론을 이용하였다. 실험은 대한민국 안동에 위치한 한국건설기술연구원 하천실험센터에서 수행되었으며, DJI Phantom 3 standard 드론을 활용하여 영상을 획득하였다. 하천유량추정의 방법론은 운동량 방정식과 Manning 유속공식을 활용한 하폭기반 유량추정 기법을 수립하였다. 1차 실험은 하천유량을 증가시키고 감소시키는 동시에 드론을 이용하여 하천을 촬영함으로써 하폭의 변화와 동시에 유량의 변화를 추정할 수 있는지 확인하였다. 2차 실험에서는 배수효과가 존재하는 조건에서 드론영상을 이용한 하천유량을 산정하고 보정계수를 산정하였다. 본 연구에서 수립된 하천유량추정기법은 위성영상을 이용한 하천유량 추정에 활용할 수 있으리라 기대한다.
