Ground slope and aspect are important parameters for physical deterministic water balance models like BROOK90 or hydrological models which attempt to calculate evapotranspiration, snowmelt, and net radiation. This study constructs a Digital Elevation Model(DEM) and examines how DEM resolution can change the average ground slope and aspect of a river basin and attempts to evaluate the effects on simulation results of BROOK90, a physical deterministic water balance model. The study area is Byungcheon river basin in Korea. DEM has been constructed using a 1:25,000 digital map with the methods of TIN and Topo To Raster. The total of 20 DEMs with 10m~100m resolution have been constructed, with a 10m interval. It was found that the higher the DEM resolution, the steeper the average ground slope value of the Byungcheon river basin. In turn, the direct solar radiation of a hilly area in the model increased the evapotranspiration and reduced the stream runoff in the Byungcheon river basin. On the other hand, a lower DEM resolution tends to move the average aspect from southeast to south in the Byungcheon river basin. Accordingly, it was found that stream runoff was reduced and evapotranspiration increased.

In order to correct the provided RPC and DEM generated from the high-resolution satellite images, the acquisition of the ground control point (GCP) must be preceded. This task is a very complicate that requires field surveys, GPS surveying, and image coordinate reading corresponding to GCPs. In addition, since it is difficult to set up and measure a GCP in areas where access is difficult or impossible (tidal flats, polar regions, volcanic regions, etc.), an alternative method is needed. In this paper, we propose a 3D surface matching technique using only the established ground coordinate package, avoiding the ground-image-location survey of the GCP to correct the DEM produced from WorldView-2 satellite images and the provided RPCs. The location data of the public control points were obtained from the National Geographic Information Institute website, and the DEM was corrected by performing 3D surface matching with this package. The accuracy of 3-axis translation and rotation obtained by the matching was evaluated using pre-measured GPS checkpoints. As a result, it was possible to obtain results within 2 m in the plane location and 1 m in height.

This paper presents photogrammetric processing to generate digital elevation models using SPOT-5 HRG stereo images and deals with the accuracy potential of HRG (High Resolution Geometry) supermode imagery for DEM generation. After bundle adjustment was preformed for sensor modelling, digital surface models were generated through the procedures of Epipolar image resampling and image matching. The DEM extracted from HRG imagery was compared along several test sections with the the refernce DEM which was obtained from the digital topographic maps of a scale of 1 to 5000. The ratio of the zone with DEM errors less than 5m to the whole zone was 53.8%, and about 2.5m RMSE was showed when assuming that the zones larger than 5m were affected by clouds, water bodies and buildings and excluding those zones from accuracy evaluation. In addition, the three-dimensional bird's eye view model and 3D building model were producted based on the DSM which was extracted from SPOT-5 HRG data.

The slope gradient of the Korean Peninsula was analyzed by using DEM(DTED level 1). The Peninsula has high percentages of gentle slopes. But low plains and very steep slope regions are scarcely distributed in the Peninsula. Altitude lower than 150m areas are composed of plains and undulated plains. The steepest and most rugged topographies are observed in the range of altitude from 500m to 1,000m areas. The areas of altitude greater than 1,000m show plateau landscapes. By overlapping digital geology maps and the gradient grade maps, We revealed the characteristics of slope regions by geological districts. High latitude with steep slope are well developed in the geological districts of granitic gneiss(ARgr) and gneiss($PR_1$) of the Pre-Cambrian, sandstone of the Paleozoic era(P-T), and sedimentary rocks of the Mesozoic era($J_2$). Low altitude with gentle slope areas are representative in the districts of granite of the Mesozoic era($Jgr_1$), the Cretaceous sedimentary rocks of the Mesozoic era($K_1$, $K_2$) and the Cenozoic strata(N). Basalt extruded the Quaternary($Q_1$) are observed in the areas of very gentle slope but greater than 1,000m altitude.

DEM (Digital Elevation Model) is a useful dataset which represents the earth surface. Beside many applications, production and frequent update of DEM is a costly task. Recently global satellite based DEMs are available which has huge potential for application. To check the accuracy, this study compares two global DEMs: AW3D30 (Advanced Land Observing Satellite World 3D 30m) and SRTM30 (Shuttle Radar Topography Mission Global 30m) with reference resampled LiDAR DEM 30m in a test area around Chuncheon, Korea. The comparison analysis was based on statistics of each DEM, their difference, profiles, slope, basin and stream orders. As a result, it is found that SRTM30 and AW3D30 were much similar but inconsistent in the test area compared to the LiDAR30 DEM. In addition, SRTM30 shows less difference with LiDAR30 compared to the AW3D30 DEM. But, DEMs should be very carefully examined for area which has temporal or season changes. For basin and stream analysis, global DEMs can be used only for regional scale analysis not local large scales.

Interferometry SAR (InSAR) is a technique to generate topographic map from complex data pairs observed by antennas at different locations. However, to obtain topographic information using InSAR is difficult task because it requires series of complicated process including phase unwrapping and precise recovery of the SAR geometry. Especially, accuracy of the DEM (Digital Elevation Model) produced by repeat pass single SAR pair could be influenced by atmospheric effect. Recently, a new InSAR technique to improve accuracy of DEM has been introduced that utilizes low resolution DEM with a number of SAR image pairs. The coarse DEM plays an important role in reducing phase unwrapping error caused by layover and satellite orbit error. In this study, we implemented DInSAR (Differential InSAR) method which combines low resolution DEMs and ERS tandem pair images. GTOPO30 DEM with 1km resolution, SRTM-3 DEM with 100m resolution, and DEM with 10m resolution derived from 1:25,000 digital vector map were used to investigate feasibility of DInSAR. The accuracy of the DEMs generated both by InSAR and DInSAR was evaluated.

본 논문에서는 인공위성연구센터에서 수행한 아리랑 1호 EOCdud상으로부터의 DEM 생성작업에 관하여 보고한다. EOC 영상으로부터 DEM을 생성하는 작업은 기존의 인공위성연구센터에서 SPOT영상으로부터 DEM 생성을 위하여 개발한 S/W를 이용하여 이루어졌다. 본 논문에서는 DEM생성작업을 크게 카메라 모델링 단계와 영상정합 단계로 구분하여 논의한다. 카메라 모델링 단계에서는 SPOT용으로 개발된 카메라 모델링 기술이 EOC 영상에 적용될 수 있는지를 검토한다. 영상정합 단계에서는 EOC 영상으로부터 가장 우수한 성능의 DEM을 추출하기 위한 영상 정합 파라미터를 추출해낸다. 각 단계별로 EOC 영상을 적용했을 때의 결과를 SPOT 영상을 적용했을 때의 결과와 비교한다. 카메라 모델링과 영상정합의 결과로 EOC 영상으로부터 생성한 DEM의 최종 높이 오차는 약 19m(RMS)로 나타났다. 결론으로 EOC로부터 생성한 DEM의 성능을 SPOT 영상으로부터 얻은 DEM의 성능과 비교하고 향후 EOC 영상으로부터 DEM 생성 작업의 실용화를 위해 필요한 추가 작업들을 기술한다.

TIN is applied in pondage calculation and topography analysis. And much processing time and storage capacity are needed because TIN contains information as elevation, slope and aspect. In the construction of TIN using contour, weed tolerance that is used for the simplification of line is influenced on the sampling distance of contour. The processing time and storage capacity of TIN are calculated in according to the weed tolerance of various size in this research. And we estimated OEMs standard error that is created from TIN to present reasonable weed tolerance and decided the size of weed tolerance that satisfy DEM standard error. We got TINs weed tolerance that satisfy DEM standard error(5m) was 70m and DEMs resolution is 20m as estimation result.

In this study, TOPMODEL(TOPography based hydrologic MODEL) was tested linked with Muskingum river routing technique for $581.7km^2$ Anseong-cheon watershed. Linear trend surface interpolation was used to give flow direction for flat areas located in downstream watershed. MDF (multiple flow direction) algorithm was adopted to derive the distribution of ln(a/$tan{\beta}$) values of the model. Because the coarser DEM resolution, the greater information loss, the watershed was divided into subwaterhseds to keep DEM resolution, and the simulation result of the upstream watershed was transferred to downstream watershed by Muskingum techniques. Relative error of the simulated result by 500 m DEM resolution showed 27.2 %. On the other hand, the relative error of the simulated result of 300 m DEM resolution by linked 2 subwatersheds with Muskingum method showed 15.8 %.

최근 몇 년간 기후변화에 의해 기상이변이 발생하고 있으며 이에 따른 집중호우로 인한 홍수피해가 심각한 수준으로 발생하고 있다. 이에 수문기상학적 요소와 특성인자들의 정확한 상호 연관성의 규명과 공간적 변동성 해석은 강우-유출 모형에서 발생하는 불확실성을 감소시키는데 중요한 요소라고 할 수 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 레이더 강우 격자 해상도와 지형인자 격자 해상도에 따라 강우-유출모형이 어떻게 반응하는지 분석하였다. 본 연구에서는 가-분포 강우-유출 모형인 ModClark 모형을 이용하여 강원도 인제군의 내린천 유역을 대상으로 광덕산 레이더자료를 이용하였다. ModClak 모형 구성을 위한 GIS 지형공간 자료는 30m, 150m, 250m, 350m 격자크기의 DEM을 사용하였으며, 2006년 7월 14일부터 7월 17일까지의 관측레이더 강우자료를 500m, 1km, 2km, 5km, 10km 사용하여 유출모의를 실시하고, 각각의 격자해상도에 따른 모의 결과를 비교하기 위해 유출수문곡선을 작성하고 유출량 변화를 모의하였다. 분석 결과 첨두유량 및 유출체적에 대해서는 DEM 30m~150m, Grid 500m~2,000m 크기의 격자일 때 가장 최적의 유출 모의를 한 것으로 분석되었으며, 통계적 분석에 의한 분석결과에서는 모든 DEM 격자는 Grid 500m인 경우, 모든 Grid 격자는 DEM 30m인 경우에 모형의 적합성이 높은 것으로 나타났고, 민감도 산정 결과 지수 등급이 높은 DEM이 분포형 모형의 결과 값에 큰 영향을 주는 것으로 분석되었다.
