The costal area where takes up over 32% in domestic teritory is considered as very importantly because it has not only economic facilities such as harbor and an industrial complex but also recreation facilities. Moreover, the tidal flat area has been used as culture ponds and salt farms because this area is occupied by various oceanic species. Also, the tidal flat area has played an important role to purify ocean pollution and maintain an ecosystem. However, the costal ecosystem has seriously threatened by domestic reclamation projects and a large-scale tide embankment during recent 10 years in Korea. This serious problem results in loosing 34%(810$km^2$) of the entire domestic costal area. In this paper, the micro-landform in the tidal flat area, which is called as Garolim bay in Korea, is classified by using Landsat TM images also verified through a filed report. Through the result of this, the tidal flat area is expected to manage efficiently especially through analyzing sediment environment and characteristic of grain size by using satellite images.

This study uses the images from the Corona ‘spy’ satellite, which have been declassified in November 2002 and available on Internet order for a very low cost. The image used dates from 1973 and has about 6m panchromatic characteristics. Along with a Landsat5TM of 1990 and Aster of 2001, a temporal range of about 30 years is achieved. A simple classification of the area was processed and crosschecked manually from the available recent toposheets of Thailand. Results show the development of human infrastructure in the Protected Island of Koh Chang in Thailand, from 1973 to date. Specific human locations are identified linked either to tourism development, or to villages of fishermen. Scope for using Corona in land cover changes on a longer time period than usual satellite images is possible. Some classification issues coming from the sensor have to be taken into account. Accuracy assessment is also an issue because of the age of the sensor.

The objectives of this research are as follows. First, to investigate methods for a national-scale land cover map based on multi-temporal classification of MODIS data and multi-spectral classification of Landsat TM data. Second, to investigate methods to p roduce ecological zone maps of Korea based on vegetation, climate, and topographic characteristics. The results of this research can be summarized as follows. First, NDVI and EVI of MODIS can be used to ecological mapping of the country by using monthly phenological characteris tics. Second, it was found that EVI is better than NDVI in terms of atmospheric correction and vegetation mapping of dense forests of the country. Third, several ecological zones of the country can be identified from the VI maps, but exact labeling requires much field works, and sufficient field data and macro-environmental data of the country. Finally, relationship between land cover types and natural environmental factors such as temperature, precipitation, elevation, and slope could be identified.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the hydrological impact due to temporal land cover change by gradual urbanization of Anseong-cheon Gongdo watershed ($371.8km^2$). Land covers of 1981, 1990, 2000 Landsat TM images were classified by maximum likelihood method. The watershed showed a trend that forest & paddy areas decreased about $33km^2$ and $27km^2$, respectively and urban area increased about $11km^2$ during the periods. To identify the impact of streamflow due to urbanization, WMS HEC-1 was used. According to apply Huffs quartile storm events by changing land cover data, peak runoff discharge of each frequency rainfall (50, 100, 500 years) increased about 56, 36, $192m^3/sec$, respectively.

토지이용의 변화는 수문순환의 변화를 초래한다. 이는 토지이용에 따른 지표 특성의 변화로 열수지가 변화함으로써 미규모 및 중규모 기상현상에 직접적으로 영향을 미치기 때문이다. 최근 4대강 살리기 사업 등의 대규모 토목사업으로 인해 넓은 면적의 지표면 상태가 변화하고 이에 따른 수문순환 변화에 대한 관심과 함께 연구가 진행되고 있다. 또한 최근 수문학 분야에서의 가장 큰 관심은 최신 기법을 적용한 수문분석 및 정확한 수문인자를 추출하고자 하는 것으로 원격탐사나 GIS 기법을 이용할 경우 유역의 물리적인 요소를 고려할 수 있으며 넓은 지역에 대한 정보를 공간적으로 분석할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 길이 103.5km, 유역면적 $1,478km^2$, 한강의 제 1지류인 섬강유역을 대상으로 위성 영상을 이용하여 토지피복에 따른 열수지 변화 특성을 모니터링 하였다. 대상지역의 토지피복은 Landsat TM 위성영상을 이용하여 수역, 도심지, 나지, 초지, 산림, 농경지, 구름 및 그림자 등으로 분류하였으며, 위성영상을 열수지 모델에 적용하여 인자별 격자기반의 공간분포도를 추출하였다. 또한 이를 이용하여 토지피복 종류에 따른 유역내 열환경 특성을 정량적으로 파악하고 열환경 관점에서 유리한 토지피복 조성을 도출하고자 한다.

불투수층은 자연적인 침투를 허용하지 않는 인위적인 토지피복상태로 도시화율 추정 및 유역의 환경변화 정도를 분석하기 위한 척도로 사용되어 왔다. 특히, 수문학적 관점에서 불투수층은 단기 유출현상에 큰 영향을 끼치는 요소로 불투수율이 증가할수록 침투량이 감소하여 첨두유출량은 증가하고 도달시간은 짧아진다. 최근에는 급속한 도시화로 인해 불투수층의 영향이 더욱 커짐에 따라 불투수율의 추정에 대한 필요성이 증가하고 있다. 현재까지 위성영상을 이용한 불투수층의 추정은 고해상도 영상을 이용하여 피복분류를 수행하였다. 즉, 분류된 토지피복에 근거하여 불투수율을 산술적으로 계산하거나 분광혼합기법 및 회귀 트리기법 등 다양한 방법에 적용되어 왔다. 본 연구에서는 Sub-pixel 분류기법을 위성영상에 적용하여 섬강유역의 불투수율을 추정하고자 한다. Sub-pixel 분류는 기존 분류기법들이 다양한 토지피복이 혼합된 화소에 대해서도 가장 비중이 높은 토지피복 하나로 분류하던 것을 개선한 방법으로 fuzzy 이론을 적용하여 최소 20% 이상의 비율을 점유하는 항목 모두를 구분하여 분류하는 기법이다. 이를 위해 섬강유역의 Landsat TM 영상을 수집하고 환경부의 토지피복도와 지질도를 참조하여 트레이닝 자료를 수집하였다. 또한 결과에 영향을 미칠 수 있는 구름은 전처리를 통하여 제거하고 수집된 트레이닝 자료에 Sub-pixel 분류기법을 적용하여 섬강유역의 불투수율을 공간분포도로 작성하였다.

The primary purposes of this study are to identify the characteristics of land development in urban area through GIS and remote sensing techniques and to provide useful implications for urban spatial policy. To perform these tasks, Daegu metropolitan city and its vicinities were selected as a study area, and remote sensing data and attributed data were collected, organized and analyzed. This study focuses on the following three steps. First, it identifies the characteristics of land development in urban areas by utilizing multi-temporal satellite image data (Landsat TM, 1980, 1985, 1990, 1995, 2000 and 2005). Second, it tries to find an answer on a critical question concerning land use conversion, i.e., which land use leads expansion of urban area? Third, it derives implications for urban spatial policies based on these findings. The characteristics of the urban extents tell us that the main land use converted into urban use from non-urban uses is green areas. The public sector, central and local governments, leads the land use conversions of suburban lands as exclusive legal body to issue permission of land use change. Based on these findings, this study concludes that the more systematic and technically advanced management tools should be utilized for more effective spatial management for urban growth.

Neural networks have been focused on as a robust classifier for the remotely sensed imagery due to its statistical independency and teaming ability. Also the artificial neural networks have been reported to be more tolerant to noise and missing data. However, unlike the conventional statistical classifiers which use the statistical parameters for the classification, a neural network classifier uses individual training sample in teaming stage. The training performance of a neural network is know to be very sensitive to the discrepancy of the number of the training samples of each class. In this paper, the effect of the population discrepancy of training samples of each class was analyzed with three layered feed forward network. And a method for reducing the effect was proposed and experimented with Landsat TM image. The results showed that the effect of the training sample size discrepancy should be carefully considered for faster and more accurate training of the network. Also, it was found that the proposed method which makes teaming rate as a function of the number of training samples in each class resulted in faster and more accurate training of the network.

Natural and artificial land features are very dynamic, changing somewhat repidly in our lifetime. It is important that such changes are inventoried accurately so that the physical and human processes at work can be more fully understood. Change detection is a technique used to determine the change between two or more time periods of a particular object of study. Change detection is an important process in monitoring and managing natural resources and urban development because it provides quantitative analysis of the spatial distribution in the population of interest. The purpose of this research is to detect environmental changes surrounding an area of Mountain Moscow, Idaho using Landsat Thematic Maper (TM) images of (July 8, 1990 and July 20, 1991). For accurate classification, the Image enhancement process was performed for improving the image quality of each image. A SPOT image (Aug. 14, 1992) was used for image merging in this research. Supervised classification was performed using the maximum likelihood method. Accuracy assessments were done for each classification. Two images were compared on a pixel-by-pixel basis using the post-classification comparison method that is used for detecting the changes of the study area in this research. The 'from-to' change class information can be detected by post classification comparison using this method and we could find which class change to another.

The ISODATA method, which is one of the most famous of the square-error clustering methos, has been applied to two Chungju multivariate data sets in order to evaluate the effectiveness of the regional lithological mapping. One is an airborne radiometric data set and the other is a mixed data set of the airborne radiometric and Landsat TM data. In both cases, the classification of the Bulguksa granite and the Kyemyongsan biotite-quartz gneiss are the most successful. Hyangsanni dolomitic limestone and neighboring Daehyangsan quartzite are also classified by their typical lowness of the radioactive intensities, though it is still confused with some others such as water-covered areas and nearby alluvials, and unaltered limestone areas. Topographically rugged valleys are also classified as the same cluster as above. This could be due to unavoidable variations of flight height and the attitude of the airborne system in such rugged terrains. The regional geological mapping of sedimentary rock units of the Ockchun System is in general confused. This might be due to similarities between different sediments. Considarable discrepancies occurred in mapping some lithological boundaries might also be due to secondary effects such as contamination or smoothing in digitizing process. Further study should be continued in the variable selection scheme as no absolutely superior method claims to exist yet since it seems somewhat to be rather data dependent. Study could also be made on the data preprocessing in order to reduce the erratic effects as mentioned above, and thus hoprfully draw much better result in regional geological mapping.
