The advancement and the spread of information and communication technology (ICT) changes the way we live and act. Computer and ICT devices become smaller and invisible, and they are now virtually everywhere in the world. Many socio-economic activities are now subject to the use of computer and ICT devices although we don't really recognize it. Various socio economic activities supported by digital devices leave digital records, and a myriad of these records becomes what we call'big data'. Big data differ from conventional data we have collected and managed in that it holds more detailed information of socio-economic activities. Thus, they offer not only new insight for our society and but also new opportunity for policy analysis. However, the use of big data requires development of new methods and tools as well as consideration of institutional issues such as privacy. The goals of this research are twofold. Firstly, it aims to understand the opportunities and challenges of using big data for planning support. Big data indeed is a big sum of microscopic and dynamic data, and this challenges conventional analytical methods and planning support tools. Secondly, it seeks to suggest ways of visualizing such spatial big data for planning support. In this regards, this study attempts to develop a dynamic visualization model and conducts an experimental case study with mobile phone big data for the Jeju island. Since the off-the-shelf commercial software for the analysis of spatial big data is not yet commonly available, the roles of open source software and computer programming are important. This research presents a pilot model of dynamic visualization for spatial big data, as well as results from them. Then, the study concludes with future studies and implications to promote the use of spatial big data in urban planning field.

3-D data modeling of a volumetric scattered data is highly demanded for geological structure inspection, environment visualization and supersonic testing. The data used in these area are generally irregularly scattered in a volume data space, which are much different from the structured points data (cuberille data) used in Marching cube algorithm. In this paper, first we explore a volume modeling method for the scattered data based on tetrahedral domain. Next we propose a method for solving the ambiguity of tetrahedral domain decision using asymptotic decider criterion. Last we implement a simple visualization system based on the proposed asymptotic decider criterion and compare it with a system based on sphere criterion. In deciding tetrahedral domain, sphere criterion considers only positional values but asymptotic decider criterion considers not only positional values but also functional values, so asymptotic decider criterion is more accurate on deciding tetrahedral domain than sphere criterion.

We present interactive methods for visualizing the cloud height data and the backscatter data collected from ceilometers in the three-dimensional virtual space. Because ceilometer data is high-dimensional, large-size data associated with both spatial and temporal information, it is highly improbable to exhibit the whole aspects of ceilometer data simply with static, two-dimensional images. Based on the three-dimensional rendering technology, our visualization methods allow the user to observe both the global variations and the local features of the three-dimensional representations of ceilometer data from various angles by interactively manipulating the timing and the view as desired. The cloud height data, coupled with the terrain data, is visualized as a realistic cloud animation in which many clouds are formed and dissipated over the terrain. The backscatter data is visualized as a three-dimensional terrain which effectively represents how the amount of backscatter changes according to the time and the altitude. Our system facilitates the multivariate analysis of ceilometer data by enabling the user to select the date to be examined, the level-of-detail of the terrain, and the additional data such as the planetary boundary layer height. We demonstrate the usefulness of our methods through various experiments with real ceilometer data collected from 93 sites scattered over the country.

In recent years, the quixotic nature and concentration of rainfall due to global climate change has intensified. To monitor localized heavy rainfalls, a reliable disaster monitoring and warning system with advanced remote observation technology and high-precision display is important. In this paper, we propose a GIS-based intuitive and realistic 3D radar data display technique for accurate and detailed weather analysis. The proposed technique performs 3D object modeling of various radar variables along with ray profiles and then displays stereoscopic radar data on detailed geographical locations. Simulation outcomes show that 3D object modeling of weather radar data can be processed in real time and that changes at each moment of rainfall events can be observed three-dimensionally on GIS.

Modeling and analysis of high-dimensional spectral data provide an opportunity to uncover inherent patterns in various information-rich data. Orthogonal signal correction (OSC) a preprocessing technique has been widely used to remove unwanted variations of spectral data that do not contribute to prediction or classification. In the present study we propose a novel OSC algorithm called adjusted direct OSC to improve visualization and the ability of classification. Experimental results with real mass spectral data from condom lubricants demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

The development of a simulation system requires many sub modules such as a dynamic module, a visualization module, etc. If a different freeware is used for each sub modules, it is hard to develop the simulation system by incorporating them because they use their own data structures. To solve this problem, a high-level data structure, called Dynamics Scene Graph Data structure (DSGD) is proposed, by wrapping data structures of two freeware; an Open Dynamics Engine (ODE) for the dynamic module and an Open Scene Graph (OSG) for the visualization module. Finally, to evaluate the applicability of the proposed data structure, it is applied to the block erection simulation in shipbuilding. The result shows that it can be used for developing the simulation system.

In this study, the detection of rubber o-ring defects was carried out using k-fold cross validation and Support Vector Machine (SVM) algorithm. The data process was carried out in 3 steps. First, we proceeded with a frame alignment to eliminate unnecessary regions in the learning and secondly, we applied gray-scale changes for computational reduction. Finally, data processing was carried out using image augmentation to prevent data overfitting. After processing data, SVM algorithm was used to obtain normal and defect detection accuracy. In addition, we applied the SVM algorithm through the k-fold cross validation method to compare the classification accuracy. As a result, we obtain results that show better performance by applying the k-fold cross validation method.

A water driven ejector loop was designed and constructed for air absorption. The used ejector was horizontally installed in the loop and annular water jet at the throat entrained air through the circular pipe placed at the center of the ejector. Wide range of water flow rate was provided using two kinds of pumps in the loop. The tested range of water flow rate was 100${\ell}$ /min to 1,000 ${\ell}$/min. Two-phase flow inside the ejector loop was simulated by CFD analysis. Homogeneous particle model was used for void fraction prediction. Water and air flow rates and pressure drop through the ejector were automatically recorded by using the LabView based data acquisition system. Flow characteristics and air bubble velocity field downstream of the ejector were investigated by two-phase flow visualization and PIV measurement based on bubble shadow images. Overall performance of the two-phase ejector predicted by the CFD simulation agrees well with that of the experiment.

In this paper, we proposed new software for 3D rendering of MR images in the medical domain using C# wrapper of Visualization Toolkit (VTK) and Microsoft .NET framework. Our objective in developing this software was to provide medical image segmentation, 3D rendering and visualization of hippocampus for diagnosis of Alzheimer disease patients using DICOM Images. Such three dimensional visualization can play an important role in the diagnosis of Alzheimer disease. Segmented images can be used to reconstruct the 3D volume of the hippocampus, and it can be used for the feature extraction, measure the surface area and volume of hippocampus to assist the diagnosis process. This software has been designed with interactive user interfaces and graphic kernels based on Microsoft.NET framework to get benefited from C# programming techniques, in particular to design pattern and rapid application development nature, a preliminary interactive window is functioning by invoking C#, and the kernel of VTK is simultaneously embedded in to the window, where the graphics resources are then allocated. Representation of visualization is through an interactive window so that the data could be rendered according to user's preference.
