Arriving in the new space age, securing technology for fusion application of KOMPSAT-3·3A and global satellite images is becoming more important. In general, multi-sensor satellite images have relative geometric errors due to various external factors at the time of acquisition, degrading the quality of the satellite image outputs. Therefore, we propose a fine-image registration methodology to minimize the relative geometric error between KOMPSAT-3·3A and global satellite images. After selecting the overlapping area between the KOMPSAT-3·3A and foreign satellite images, the spatial resolution between the two images is unified. Subsequently, tie-points are extracted using a hybrid matching method in which feature- and area-based matching methods are combined. Then, fine-image registration is performed through iterative registration based on pyramid images. To evaluate the performance and accuracy of the proposed method, we used KOMPSAT-3·3A, Sentinel-2A, and PlanetScope satellite images acquired over Daejeon city, South Korea. As a result, the average RMSE of the accuracy of the proposed method was derived as 1.2 and 3.59 pixels in Sentinel-2A and PlanetScope images, respectively. Consequently, it is considered that fine-image registration between multi-sensor satellite images can be effectively performed using the proposed method.

This paper presents a method to detect buildings using shadow information in satellite imagery. We classify image into three categories of building region, shadow region and background region to find buildings with consistent intensity. After the removal of noises in building regions and shadow regions, buildings adjacent to shadow regions are detected using the constraint of building and shadow sizes. The algorithm has been applied to KOMPSAT and SPOT images and the result showed buildings are efficiently detected.

최근 공공분야 및 민간분야에서 고해상도 위성영상의 활용이 높아짐에 따라 이를 이용하여 수자원 분야의 치수계획 및 안전도 평가, 유역 홍수대응기술 분야에서의 다양한 활용이 비약적으로 증대되고 있는 실정이다. 고해상도 위성영상의 활용은 국지적 규모의 토지이용 변화 및 대기 상태의 모니터링을 위한 효과적인 기술로 인식되어 왔다. 우리나라의 KOMPSAT-2 위성은 GSD(Ground Sample Distance) 1m급의 전정색 영상과 4m급의 다중분광 영상을 동시에 제공하는 고해상도 위성이다. 그러나 다중분광센서의 복잡성과 보안성에 의해 영상이 제한적으로 제공되고 있어 KOMPSAT-2 위성영상을 이용한 다양한 연구가 미흡한 실정이다. 한편, 토지이용도의 제작은 다중분광 영상을 제공하는 위성영상을 이용하여 제작된다. 다중분광 영상이 제공하는 분광정보 및 공간정보 등으로 토지이용분류를 수행하거나 멀티센서 자료의 통합을 통한 토지이용분류 기법을 개발하여 제작하였다. 그러나 대부분 GSD 10m급 이상의 중 저해상도 위성영상을 이용하여 제작이 이루어져 수평위치 정확도 및 세부정보의 제공이 낮으며, 정보의 최신성이 결여되어 있다. 특히, 유역 치수안전도 평가를 위한 토지이용도 작성은 매우 중요한 부분을 차지하고 있으므로 이에 대한 연구가 필요하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 섬강유역을 대상으로 KOMPSAT-2 영상을 이용하여 유역 치수안전도 평가 및 치수계획 수립기술을 위한 토지이용도를 작성하고자 한다. 토지이용 분류방법은 감독분류와 무감독분류 방법을 조합하여 분류정확도를 개선시키는 하이브리드분류(hybrid classification) 방법을 이용하였으며, 분류기준의 선정은 환경부 토지이용분류 기준을 참고하여 1단위와 2단위 분류체계를 혼용하였다. 또한, 분류 후 후처리를 통하여 잡음을 제거하고 환경부의 토지이용도를 참조하여 육안판독으로 오분류된 지역을 보정하였다. 새롭게 작성된 토지이용도는 기존의 토지이용도와 비교 분석하여 토지이용변화 상황을 파악하고, 이를 통하여 KOMPSAT-2 영상의 토지이용도 개선 가능성을 검토하였다.

The KOMPSAT-3A satellite acquires high-resolution MWIR images twice a day compared to conventional Earth observing satellites. New radiometric information of Earth's surface can be provided due to different characteristics from existing SWIR images or TIR images. In this study, the difference image of multitemporal images was generated and compared with existing infrared images to find the characteristics of KOMPSAT-3A MWIR satellite images. A co-registration was performed and the difference between pixel values was minimized by using PIFs (Pseudo Invariant Features) pixel-based relative normalization. The experiment using Sentinel-2 SWIR image, Landsat 8 TIR image, and KOMPSAT-3A MWIR image showed that the distinction between artifacts in the difference image of KOMPSAT-3A is prominent. It is believed that the utilization of KOMPSAT-3A MWIR images can be improved by using the characteristics of IR image.

Recently, interest in potential for estimating water quality using high resolution satellite images is increasing. However, low SNR(Signal to Noise Ratio) over inland water and radiometric errors such as non-linearity of brightness value of high resolution satellite images often lead to accuracy degradation in water quality estimation. Therefore radiometric correction should be carried out to estimate water quality for high resolution satellite images. For KOMPSAT-2 images parameters for brightness value-radiance conversion are not available and precise radiometric correction is difficult. To exploit KOMPSAT-2 images for water quality monitoring, it is necessary to investigate non-linearity of brightness value and noise over inland water. In this paper, we performed brightness value comparison between KOMPSAT-2 images and IKONOS/GeoEye-1, which are known to show the linearity. We used the images obtained over the same area and on the same date for comparison. As a result, we showed that although KOMPSAT-2 images are more noisy;the trend of brightness value and pattern of noise are almost similar to reference images. The results showed that appropriate target area to minimize the impact of noise was $5{\times}5$. Non-linearity of brightness value between KOMPSAT-2 and reference images was not observed. Therefore we could conclude that KOMPSAT-2 may be used for estimation of water quality parameters such as concentration of chlorophyll.

As the utility of an optical satellite image with a high spatial resolution (i.e., fine-scale) has been emphasized, recently, various studies of the land surface monitoring using those have been widely carried out. However, the usefulness of fine-scale satellite images is limited because those are acquired at a low temporal resolution. To compensate for this limitation, the spatiotemporal data fusion can be applied to generate a synthetic image with a high spatio-temporal resolution by fusing multiple satellite images with different spatial and temporal resolutions. Since the spatio-temporal data fusion models have been developed for mid or low spatial resolution satellite images in the previous studies, it is necessary to evaluate the applicability of the developed models to the satellite images with a high spatial resolution. For this, this study evaluated the applicability of the developed spatio-temporal fusion models for KOMPSAT-3A and Sentinel-2 images. Here, an Enhanced Spatial and Temporal Adaptive Fusion Model (ESTARFM) and Spatial Time-series Geostatistical Deconvolution/Fusion Model (STGDFM), which use the different information for prediction, were applied. As a result of this study, it was found that the prediction performance of STGDFM, which combines temporally continuous reflectance values, was better than that of ESTARFM. Particularly, the prediction performance of STGDFM was significantly improved when it is difficult to simultaneously acquire KOMPSAT and Sentinel-2 images at a same date due to the low temporal resolution of KOMPSAT images. From the results of this study, it was confirmed that STGDFM, which has relatively better prediction performance by combining continuous temporal information, can compensate for the limitation to the low revisit time of fine-scale satellite images.

In this study we tried to compare and analyze KOMPSAT-2 NOVI and vegetation coverage(VC) which is investigated by fieldwork. To standardize KOMPSAT-2 NOVI, we adjusted NOVI using reference data which is atmospheric corrected MODIS NDVI. Each vegetation coverage point data was surveyed in field using portable GPS and compared with NDVI of satellite imagery. As a results, there was high level of correlation in vegetation coverage and NOVI.

KOMPSAT-2 고해상도 위성영상이 제공됨에 따라, 국내에서도 고해상도 위성영상을 활용한 다양한 연구 및 활용 사례가 증대되고 있다. KOMPSAT-2는 높은 공간해상도의 흑백영상과 멀티스펙트럴 영상을 동시에 제공하고 있는데, 개체 추출 및 고해상도의 토지 피복도 생성, 영상의 시각화를 위한 고해상도 멀티스펙트럴 영상 취득이 주요한 실정이다. 따라서 서로 다른 공간, 분광해 상도를 가지는 센서 자료를 이용하여 두 개의 장점을 모두 가지는 영상으로 재구성하는 영상융합은 원격탐사분야에서 중요한 연구분야이다. 이를 위해 다양한 영상융합기법이 연구되었지만, 대부분의 알고리즘들이 융합 후에 원 멀티스펙트럴 영상의 분광정보를 왜곡시키는 문제점을 지니고 있다. 본 연구에서는 영상 유도기법을 이용하여 융합영상의 분광정보를 향상시키는 방법을 제안하였다. 원 멀티스펙트럴 영상과 해상도를 낮춘 융합영상과의 비교 분석을 통하여 융합영상의 공간해상도 왜곡은 최소한으로 줄이고 왜곡된 분광정보를 최대한 보정하였다. 다양한 알고리즘을 통해 얻은 KOMPSAT-2 융합 영상에 본 알고리즘을 적용한 결과, 분광정보 왜곡량이 기존의 융합결과에 비해 줄어든 것을 확인할 수 있었으며, 이러한 결과는 다양한 응용분야에 활용될 수 있을 것이다.
