To make use of surveying data obtained from different sensors and different techniques in a common reference frame, it is a pre-requite step to register them in a common coordinate system. For this purpose, we have developed a methodology to register IKONOS-2 Satellite Imagery using ALS data. To achieve this, conjugate features from these data should be extracted in advance. In the study, linear features are chosen as conjugate features because they can be accurately extracted from man-made structures in urban area, and more easily than point features from ALS data. Then, observation equations are established from similarity measurements of the extracted features. During the process, considering the characteristics of systematic errors in IKONOS-2 satellite imagery, the transformation function were selected and used. In addition, we also analyzed how the number of linear features and their spatial distribution used as control features affect the accuracy of registration. Finally, the results were evaluated statistically and the results clearly demonstrated that the proposed algorithms are appropriate to register these data.

하구 감조부에서의 유량측정은 수문관측매뉴얼에 의하면 일반하천의 유량측정과 같은 원칙으로 실시하며, 일반 유량측정보다 신속하게 측정하고 유속과 유량을 연속적으로 측정해야 하고 조석을 잘 고려하여 관측계획을 수립하여야 하고 측정장비는 가급적 유향, 유속계의 기록부가 내장된 장비를 이용하도록 제안하고 있으며, 현실적으로 감조하천에서 유량측정은 많은 어려움이 따른다. 최근 우리나라에서 하천유량의 효율적인 측정을 위해 초음파유속계나 지표유속법과 같은 실시간 하천유량측정 방법이 도입되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 자동유량관측이 감조하천에 가능하도록 실시간 유량관측 시스템을 개발하여 운영하였다. 조석의 영향을 받는 한강대교지점에 도플러방식 초음파유량계를 회전체에 탑재한 자동유량측정장치를 남 북단 하천에 각각 1대씩 설치하였다. 본 시스템을 운영한 결과 무인 자동 연속 정밀관측이 가능하였으며, 1회 유속측정에 소요되는 $2{\sim}3$시간을 $5{\sim}6$분으로 단축시켰다. 이를 기반으로 감조하천에서의 자동유량관측이 가능하고 지표유속법을 도입하여 정확도를 높일 수 있는 유량산정기술을 개발하였다.

A special purpose machine with two manipulators and quadruped crawler system is being developed to work at disaster sites where it is intended to quickly respond in the initial stages after the event. In this study, a terrain recognition module is developed so that the above special purpose machine can quickly obtain ground information to help choose its path while recognizing objects in its way, this is intended to enhance the remote driver's limited situational awareness. Terrain recognition modules were developed for two tasks (real-time path guidance, precision terrain measurements). The real-time path guidance analyzes terrain and obstacles while moving, while the precision terrain measurement feature provides more accurate terrain information by precisely measuring the ground in front of the vehicle while stationary. In this study, an air-cooled sensor protection module was developed so that the terrain recognition module can continue its vital tasks in the event of exposure to foreign substances, including scattered dust, mist and rainfall, as well as high temperatures.

Need for agile satellite increases for performing various mission due to increase of satellite image applications and users. In high resolution satellite TDI (time delay and integration) method is adopted in order to improve SNR. But image quality can be degraded by satellite maneuver. In this paper requirements for remote sensing in high resolution satellite with agility are extracted and an approach to operate the agile satellite to perform the missions are proposed. The proposed approach in this paper will be applicable to system level design and analysis.

A mobile robot, named KAEROT, has been developed for inspection and maintenance operations in nuclear facilities. The main feature of locomotion system is the planetary wheel assembly with small wheels. This mechanism has been designed to be able to go over the stairs and obstacles with stability. This paper presents the inverse kinematic solution that is to be operated by remote control. The automatic stair climbing algorithm is also proposed. The. proposed algorithms generates the moving pathes of small wheels and calculates the angular velocity of 3 actuation wheels. The results of simulations and experiments are given for KAEROT peformed on the irregular stairs in laboratory. It is shown that the proposed algorithm provides the lower inclination angle of the robot body and increases its stability during navigation.

In recent years, the unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) assisted mobile free space optical (FSO) communication technique has attracted considerable attention regarding its aims to provide improved communication conditions for fixed-to-fixed FSO network and promising fronthaul and backhaul solutions for 5G+ wireless networks. This can be attributed to its outstanding advantages such as fast deployment and flexible network configuration. The UAV-assisted mobile FSO system can be used to provide cost-effective internet services in rural and remote areas and in hotspot areas that are characterized by increased data traffic. Additionally, it can be used to provide secure communication services under emergency circumstances. In this report, we review recent R&D trends in wireless network technology employing the UAV-assisted mobile FSO technique and key technologies for mobile FSO wireless networks. Furthermore, we introduce drone-based mobile FSO terminals and control systems that we have developed.

Recently, the development project is conducting disaster effect estimation to breed disaster, and cope these disaster beforehand provoking soil erosion and flood. Therefore, it is important to analyze and reduce of these disaster. In this study, it is intended to extract LS and C factors of soil erosion through the digital image. The photogrammetric technique, which employs the Remote Control Helicopter equipped with a non-metric digital camera, was used for the efficient survey and analysis of cutting slopes. As a result, we obtain more objective value of soil erosion factor using digital image.

The primary treatment modality of malignant tumors of the nasopharynx is radiation therapy owing to its inaccessibility to surgical intervention. Over the last two decades there were many changes in techniques of delivery, which include the use of higher doses of radiotherapy, the use of wide radiation field, including the elective radiation of the whole neck, the combined use of brachy- and teletherapy, and the use of split-course therapy. In spite of these advances local and regional recurrences remain the major cause of death. As a boost therapy after external irradiation, high-dose-rate intracavitary irradiation using remote control afterloading system(RALS) was used in two patients. Our results were satisfactory, however, this procedure should only be performed by those who have developed enough expertise in the use of intracavitary techniques for the treatment of nasopharyngeal cancer and have a supportive team including a physicist, dosimetrist, nurse, and trained technologist.
