This study performed to simulate the watershed storm runoff using data of S-band dual-polarization radar rain, GPM (Global Precipitation Mission) satellite rain, and observed rainfall at 21 ground stations operated by KMA (Korea Meteorological Administration) respectively. For the 3 water level gauge stations (Sancheong, Changchon, and Namgang) of NamgangDam watershed ($2,293km^2$), the KIMSTORM2 (KIneMatic wave STOrm Runoff Model2) was applied and calibrated with parameters of initial soil moisture contents, Manning's roughness of overland and stream to the event of typhoon CHABA (82 mm in watershed aveprage) in $5^{th}$ October 2016. The radar and GPM data was corrected with CM (Conditional Merging) method such as CM-corrected Radar and CM-corrected GPM. The CM has been used for accurate rainfall estimation in water resources and meteorological field and the method combined measured ground rainfall and spatial data such as radar and satellite images by the kriging interpolation technique. For the CM-corrected Radar and CM-corrected GPM data application, the determination coefficient ($R^2$) was 0.96 respectively. The Nash-Sutcliffe efficiency (NSE) was 0.96 and the Volume Conservation Index (VCI) was 1.03 respectively. The CM-corrected data of Radar and GPM showed good results for the CHABA peak runoff and runoff volume simulation and improved all of $R^2$, NSE, and VCI comparing with the original data application. Thus, we need to use and apply the radar and satellite data to monitor the flood within the watershed.

This study applied conditional merging (CM) spatial interpolation technique to obtain the satellite and in-situ composite soil moisture data. For the analysis, 24 gages of hourly in-situ data sets from the Rural Development Administration (RDA) of Korea and the satellite soil moisture data retrieved from Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer-Earth observing system (AMSR-E) were used. In order to verify the performance of the CM method, leave-one-out cross validation was used. The cross validation result was spatially interpolated to figure out spatial correlation of the CM method. The results derived from this study are as follow: (1) The CM method produced better soil moisture map over Korean Peninsula than AMSR-E did for the over 100 days out of total 113 days considered for the analysis. (2) The method of CM showed high correlation with gage density and better performance on the western side of Korean peninsula due to high spatial gauge density. (3) The performance of CM is not affected by the non-rainy season unlike to AMSR-E data is. Overall, the result of this study indicates that the CM method can be applied for predicting soil moisture at ungaged locations.

The increased frequency of meteorological disasters has been observed due to increased extreme events such as heavy rainfalls and flash floods. Numerous studies using high-resolution weather radar rainfall data have been carried out on the hydrological effects. In this study, a conditional merging technique is employed, which makes use of geostatistical methods to extract the optimal information from the observed data. In this context, three different techniques such as kriging, inverse distance weighting and spline interpolation methods are applied to conditionally merge radar and ground rainfall data. The results show that the estimated rainfall not only reproduce the spatial pattern of sub-hourly rainfall with a relatively small error, but also provide reliable temporal estimates of radar rainfall. The proposed modeling framework provides feasibility of using conditionally merged rainfall estimation at high spatio-temporal resolution in ungauged areas.

In this paper we applied radar rainfall for assessment that radar can be used for flood forecasting. The radar data observed at Imjin-River radar site was adjusted using conditional merging method to estimate simulated runoff in Anseon-cheon basin. Also we use two dimensional physical and grid based model call $Vflo^{TM}$. As a result we could find simulated hydrologic curve shows good fitting with observed hydrologic curve even parameters of the model were not calibrated. If we calibrate the parameters, we can expect better hydrologic curve. And radar rainfall can be used for water resources fields and flood forecasting in Korea.

Off-line handwritten character recognition is in difficulty of incomplete preprocessing because it has not dynamic and timing information besides has various handwriting, extreme overlap of the consonant and vowel and many error image of stroke. Consequently off-line handwritten character recognition needs to study about preprocessing of various methods such as binarization and thinning. This paper considers running time of watershed algorithm and the quality of resulting image as preprocessing For off-line handwritten Korean character recognition. So it proposes application of effective watershed algorithm for segmentation of character region and background region in gray level character image and segmentation function for binarization image and segmentation function for binarization by extracted watershed image. Besides it proposes thinning methods which effectively extracts skeleton through conditional test mask considering running time and quality. of skeleton, estimates efficiency of existing methods and this paper's methods as running time and quality. Watershed image conversion uses prewitt operator for gradient image conversion, extracts local minima considering 8-neighborhood pixel. And methods by using difference of mean value is used in region merging step, Converted watershed image by means of this methods separates effectively character region and background region applying to segmentation function. Average execution time on the previous method was 2.16 second and on this paper method was 1.72 second. We prove that this paper's method removed noise effectively with overlap stroke as compared with the previous method.

In this paper, a new version of the ICM method(MICM, modified ICM) in which the contextual information is modelled by Markov random fields (MRF) is introduced. To extract the feature, a new local MRF model with a fitting block neighbourhood is proposed. This model selects contextual information not only from the relative intensity levels but also from the geometrically directional position of neighbouring cliques. Feature extraction depends on each block's contribution to the local variance. They discriminates it into several regions, for example context and background. Boundaries between these regions are also distinctive. The proposed algerian performs segmentation using directional block fitting procedure which confines merging to spatially adjacent elements and generates a partition such that pixels in unified cluster have a homogeneous intensity level. From experiment with ink rubbed copy images(Takbon, 拓本), this method is determined to be quite effective for feature identification. In particular, the new algorithm preserves the details of the images well without over- and under-smoothing problem occurring in general iterated conditional modes (ICM). And also, it may be noted that this method is applicable to the handwriting recognition.

본 연구는 기초기술연구회의 위성정보 활용 지원 운영사업(과제명: 위성영상을 이용한 하천정보 생산 및 활용에 관한 연구)의 연구비 지원에 의해 수행되었습니다. 지난 2010년 6월 발사된 천리안 위성이 약 9개월간의 정지궤도 시험운행을 마치고 본격적으로 위성자료 서비스를 시작함에 따라 한반도 악기상 관측 및 예측 정확도 향상에 기여할 것으로 예상된다. 최근 기후분야 외에도 수자원, 방재, 농업, 해양 등 다양한 응용분야에서 기상위성을 활용하고자 하는 연구가 수행되고 있으며 자료제공 시간의 단축과 기상자료 산출물의 제공으로 천리안 위성은 향후 광범위하게 활용 될 것으로 예상된다. 본 연구는 천리안 위성의 수자원 분야 활용을 위한 기반연구로 천리안 위성과 동일한 채널 특성을 보유한 MTSAT-1R 기상위성을 이용하여 면적강우량을 추정하고 이를 지상관측소를 이용하는 강우보정기법에 적용하며 강우산정 결과를 레이더 및 티센, 크리깅 등과 비교하였다. 강우추정은 NOAA NESDIS의 Power-law 공식을 이용하였으며 지상관측소를 이용한 강우보정은 조건부 합성기법을 적용하였다. 연구대상 유역은 충주댐 유역과 충주댐 유역 상류에 위치한 영월수위표 지점 상류유역을 대상으로 하였으며 레이더 차폐에 따른 레이더 강우량의 감쇄 효과를 분석하고 지형적 특성에 영향 받지 않는 기상위성을 이용한 강우량 산정 기법의 활용성을 제시하였다. 연구결과 레이더 차폐에 영향 받지 않는 영월 수위표 상류유역의 경우 레이더를 이용한 강우량 산정결과와 기상위성을 이용한 결과가 큰 차이가 없으나 전체 유역면적의 절반 정도가 레이더 차폐 지역에 포함되는 충주댐 유역의 경우 레이더를 이용할 경우 20%~35% 가량 강우량이 과소 추정되는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구를 토대로 산악지형에 의해 레이더 차폐가 발생되는 유역에 대해 기상위성의 활용을 기대할 수 있을 것으로 판단되었다.

This study is to estimate the spatial soil moisture using Terra MODIS (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) satellite data and machine learning technique. Using the 3 years (2015~2017) data of MODIS 16 days composite NDVI (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index) and daily Land Surface Temperature (LST), ground measured precipitation and sunshine hour of KMA (Korea Meteorological Administration), the RDA (Rural Development Administration) 10 cm~30 cm average TDR (Time Domain Reflectometry) measured soil moisture at 78 locations was tested. For daily analysis, the missing values of MODIS LST by clouds were interpolated by conditional merging method using KMA surface temperature observation data, and the 16 days NDVI was linearly interpolated to 1 day interval. By applying the RNN-LSTM (Recurrent Neural Network-Long Short Term Memory) artificial neural network model, 70% of the total period was trained and the rest 30% period was verified. The results showed that the coefficient of determination ($R^2$), Root Mean Square Error (RMSE), and Nash-Sutcliffe Efficiency were 0.78, 2.76%, and 0.75 respectively. In average, the clay soil moisture was estimated well comparing with the other soil types of silt, loam, and sand. This is because the clay has the intrinsic physical property for having narrow range of soil moisture variation between field capacity and wilting point.
