Although there have been wide range of studies to characterize forest stands based upon spectral information of satellite image, it was not fully understood the texture information of forest stand using high resolution data. The objective of this study is to evaluate several texture measures for characterizing forest stand structure, such as species composition, diameter at breast height(DBH), stand density, and age. High resolution IKONOS satellite imagery data were acquired in August 200 lover the forested area near Ulsan, Korea. Primary forest types were plantation pine, mixed forest, and natural deciduous forest of stand age ranging from 10 to 50 years old. Several GLCM-based texture measures were compared with forest stand characteristics. In overall, a texture measure (contrast) calculated using red band were better to differentiate species and age group than other texture measures and near infrared bands.

There is an increasing need to use data from different sensors in order to maximize the chances of obtaining a cloud-free image and to meet timely requirements for information. However, the use of data from multiple sensor systems is depending on comprehensive relationships between sensors of different types. Indeed, a study of inter-sensor relationships is well advanced in the effective use of remotely sensed data from multiple sensors. This paper was concerned with relationships between sensors of different types for vegetation indices (VI). The study was conducted using IKONOS and Landsat-7 ETM+ images. IKONOS and Landsat-7 ETM+ image of the same or about the same dates were acquired. The Landsat-7 ETM+ images were resampled in order to make them coincide with the pixel sizes of IKONOS. Inter-relationships of vegetation indices between images were performed using at-satellite reflectance obtained by converting image digital number (DN). All images were applied to topographic normalization method in order to reduce topographic effect in digital imagery. Also, Inter-sensor model equations between two sensors were developed and applied to other study region. In the result, the relational equations can be used to compute or interpret VI of one sensor using the VI of another sensor.

Today's commercial high resolution satellite imagery such as IKONOS and QuickBird, offers the potential to extract useful spatial information for geographical database construction and GIS applications. Recognizing this potential use of high resolution satellite imagery, KARI is performing a project for developing Korea multipurpose satellite 3(KOMPSAT-3). Therefore, it is necessary to develop techniques for various GIS applications of KOMPSAT-3, using similar high resolution satellite imagery. As fundamental studies for this purpose, we focused on the extraction of 3D spatial information and the update of existing GIS data from QuickBird imagery. This paper examines the scheme for rectification of high resolution image, and suggests the convenient semi-automatic algorithm for extraction of 3D building information from a single image. The algorithm is based on triangular vector structure that consists of a building bottom point, its corresponding roof point and a shadow end point. The proposed method could increase the number of measurable building, and enhance the digitizing accuracy and the computation efficiency.

In times of the civil uses of commercialized high-resolution satellite imagery, applications of remote sensing have been widely extended to the new fields or the problem solving beyond traditional application domains. Transportation application of this sensor data, related to the automatic or semiautomatic road extraction, is regarded as one of the important issues in uses of remote sensing imagery. Related to these trends, this study focuses on automatic road extraction using Gradient Direction Profile Algorithm (GDPA) scheme, with IKONOS panchromatic imagery having 1 meter resolution. For this, the GDPA scheme and its main modules were reviewed with processing steps and implemented as a prototype software. Using the extracted bi-level image and ground truth coming from actual GIS layer, overall accuracy evaluation and ranking error-assessment were performed. As the processed results, road information can be automatically extracted; by the way, it is pointed out that some user-defined variables should be carefully determined in using high-resolution satellite imagery in the dense or low contrast areas. While, the GDPA method needs additional processing, because direct results using this method do not produce high overall accuracy or ranking value. The main advantage of the GDPA scheme on road features extraction can be noted as its performance and further applicability. This experiment study can be extended into practical application fields related to remote sensing.

Optical signals from an object may vary at different conditions caused by differences in light source and sensor position. Knowledge of these variations is necessary to enable calibration of the satellite images and confirmation of the sun and sensor angles influences of the spectral signals from the objects. With the use high -resolution Ikonos$^{TM}$ multi-angular images, the bi- directional reflectance effects of mangrove trees were observed when three datasets were compared. The influence of bi- directional reflectance may affect the accuracy of interpreting satellite imagery and obtaining biophysical parameters mangrove and other vegetation by indirect means.

Various matching methods have been introduced by investigators to improve digital elevation model (DEM) accuracy of satellite imagery. This study proposed an area-based matching method according to land cover property using correlation coefficient of pixel brightness value between the two images for DEM generation from IKONOS stereo imagery. For this, matching line (where "matching line" implies straight line that is approximated to complex nonlinear epipolar geometry) is established by exterior orientation parameters to minimize search area. The matching is carried out based on this line. Land cover classes are divided off into water, urban land, forest and agricultural land. Matching size is selected using a correlation-coefficient image in the four areas. The selected sizes are $81{\times}81$ pixels window, $21{\times}21$ pixels window, $119{\times}119$ pixels window and $51{\times}51$ pixels window in the water area, urban land, forest land and agricultural land, respectively. And hence, DEM is generated from IKONOS stereo imagery using the selected matching sizes and land cover map on the four types.

토양의 포장은 도시의 기후나 홍수 그리고 수질오염 등에 영향을 미친다. 토양의 포장률이 높아질수록 건물과 도로의 열 저장능력이 커져 대기의 온도가 상승하며, 유출수가 증가하여 집중호우시 홍수를 유발한다. 아울러 비점오염의 부하량이 늘어나서 수질오염을 가중시킨다. 이와 같이 도시의 생태, 재해 그리고 오염에 영향을 미치는 토양의 포장현황을 파악하고 모니터링하는 것은 매우 중요하다. 그러나 도시지역의 토양포장 상태는 복잡하며, 이를 조사하는데 시간과 비용이 많이 소요되기 때문에 자료를 얻기가 매우 어려운 실정이다. 이와 같은 문제인식 하에서, 이 연구에서는 효과적으로 불투수지표면을 조사하는 방법의 하나로서 인공위성영상자료를 이용하는 방법을 모색하였다. 이 연구에서는 실제로 IKONOS 영상을 이용하여 안양시의 불투수지표면(不透水地表面)의 현황을 조사 분석하고, 이 방법의 유용성과 한계를 살펴보았다.

정사영상 생성, 도시 공간의 모형화 등 도면화의 다양한 응용분야에 적용을 위해서는 위성 영상으로부터 수치고도모형을 생성하는 것은 중요하며, SPOT-5, IKONOS, QUICKBIRD, ORBVIEW 등의 고해상도 위성영상은 효율적이고 경제적으로 수치고도모형을 생성할 수 있는 정보를 제공하고 있다. 그러나, 이들 고해상도 위성영상으로부터 수치고도모형을 생성하기 위해서는 센서모형화, 에피폴라 영상 생성 그리고 영상정합에 대한 사전지식이 필요하다. 이들 중 에피폴라 영상생성은 중요한 인자이며 이에 대한 연구는 아직 미흡한 실정이다. 뿐만 아니라, IKONOS 위성영상으로부터 수치고도모형을 생성하는 연구는 다항식비례모형에 기반한 연구가 주로 이루어졌다. 이에 본 연구에서는 센서 독립적이면서 적은 수의 기준점만으로 센서모형화와 에피폴라 영상생성이 가능한 평행투영모형을 이용하여 수치고도모형을 생성하는 일련의 처리과정을 새롭게 제안하였다. 제안된 방법론은 IKONOS 위성영상을 이용하여 적용하고 평가하였다.

Currently, high-resolution satellite imagery such as KOMPSAT and IKONOS has been tentatively utilized to various types of urban engineering problems such as transportation planning, site planning, and utility management. This approach aims at software development and followed applications of remotely sensed imagery to transportation geographic analysis. At first, GDPA (Gradient Direction Profile Algorithm) and main modules in it are overviewed, and newly implemented results under MS visual programming environment are presented with main user interface, input imagery processing, and internal processing steps. Using this software, road network are automatically generated. Furthermore, this road network is used to transportation geographic analysis such as gamma index and road pattern estimation. While, this result, being produced to do-facto format of ESRI-shapefile, is used to several types of road layers to urban/transportation planning problems. In this study, road network using KOMPSAT EOC imagery and IKONOS imagery are directly compared to multiple road layers with NGI digital map with geo-coordinates, as ground truth; furthermore, accuracy evaluation is also carried out through method of computation of commission and omission error at some target area. Conclusively, the results processed in this study is thought to be one of useful cases for further researches and local government application regarding transportation geographic analysis using remotely sensed data sets.
