We developed a software for simulations and analyses of the Image Navigation and Registration (INR) system, and compares the characteristics of Image Motion Compensation (IMC) algorithms for the INR system. According to the orbit errors and attitude errors, the capabilities of the image distortions are analyzed. The distortions of images can be compensated by GOES IMC algorithm and Modified IMC (MIMC) algorithm. The capabilities of each IMC algorithm are confirmed based on compensated images. The MIMC yields better results than GOES IMC although both the algorithms well compensate distorted images. The results of this research can be used as valuable asset to design of INR system for the Communication, Ocean, Meteorological Satellite (COMS).

This paper presents a method of construction and re-use of a GCP database for precision geometric correction of high resolution satellite images. Accurate geometric correction can be achieved by using accurate GCPs. The GCP information which is extracted from maps or other sources is saved in a database in conjunction with the corresponding image chips. The usage of the GCPs from the database gives reusability and efficiency in marking new GCPs. An image matching algorithm was developed to determine the corresponding positions between an image chip and a new image. The proposed technique can save time in the regular operation of satellite image preprocessing by propagating the pre-determined GCPs to the new image correction.

It's important to classify criteria in selecting suitable area about the huge industrial area and housing area. Also it's need accurate criteria and effectiveness in selecting suitable area. The aim of the study is to investigate area using data result from aspect, elevation, slope were analyzed by satellite image and DEM. Finally, review the effectiveness and complement of cirteria in the future.

Time series satellite image data were used to discuss the possibility of the industrialization of the Kunsan area. The satellite observation was performed from 1979 to 1987 and it revealed a big change in the geographical features due to the rapid development of this area. From the previous experience regarding the industrialization of the coastal district of the Seto Inland Sea, the Kunsan area is very promising as an industrialized world trade center.

The COMS IMPS (Communication Ocean and Meteorological Satellite IMage Pre-processing Subsystem) is developed for image pre-processing of COMS. For a test of the COMS IMPS, 7 support software are developed in KARI GS using simulated MI/GOCI WB (Wide-Band) data; COMS Fill Adder, MI (Meteorological Imager) CADU generator, GOCI (Geostationary Ocean Colour Imager) CADU generator, COMS CADU combiner, MI SD (Sensor Data) analyzer, GOCI SD analyzer, and COMS DM (Decomposition Module) test harness. This paper explains functions of developed support software and the COMS IMPS test using those software.

본 연구에서는 고해상도 위성 영상에 관한 압축을 연구하였다. 위성영상은 많은 픽셀 정보와 이루어져 있기 때문에 빠른 영상처리와 데이터 보관을 위해서 압축이 필수적이다. 특히 영상압축시 도로정보와 건물, 산림, 지형 등의 특징을 왜곡을 최소화하여 압축하여야 한다. 따라서는 본 연구에서는 함수공간에서 영상 압축이 가능한 웨이브렛을 기반하여 위성 영상의 압축기법을 제안하였으며, 일반적인 정지영상 압축 기법인 JPEG과의 압축성능을 분석하였다. 그 결과 웨이브렛 압축기법이 JPEG보다 1/10 이상의 압축 성능을 보였다.

Recently, Ministry of Government Administration and Home Affairs and Local Governments drafted plan to digitize cadastral maps for making effective land management and development. Cadastral map have difference in comparison with actual area's boundary since they used long time and continuously. In this study, verification of accuracy has concerned in comparison with cadastral map and IKONOS satellite image which has geometrical correction.

Many applications using satellite data from high-resolution multispectral sensors require an image fusion step, known as pansharpening, before processing and analyzing the multispectral images when spatial fidelity is crucial. Image fusion methods are to improve images with higher spatial and spectral resolutions by reducing spectral distortion, which occurs on image fusion processing. The image fusion methods can be classified into MRA (Multi-Resolution Analysis) and CSA (Component Substitution Analysis) approaches. To suggest the efficient image fusion method for Pleiades and KOMPSAT (Korea Multi-Purpose Satellite) 3 satellites, this study will evaluate image fusion methods for multispectral and panchromatic images. HPF (High-Pass Filtering), SFIM (Smoothing Filter-based Intensity Modulation), GS (Gram Schmidt), and GSA (Adoptive GS) were selected for MRA and CSA based image fusion methods and applied on multispectral and panchromatic images. Their performances were evaluated using visual and quality index analysis. HPF and SFIM fusion results presented low performance of spatial details. GS and GSA fusion results had enhanced spatial information closer to panchromatic images, but GS produced more spectral distortions on urban structures. This study presented that GSA was effective to improve spatial resolution of multispectral images from Pleiades 1A and KOMPSAT 3.

A kind of Subjective Imaging Effect Assessment (SIEA) method and its applications on intelligent imaging terminal design in engineering site are presented. First, some visual assessment indices are used to characterize the imaging effect: the image brightness, the image brightness uniformity, the color image contrast, the image edge blur, the image color difference, the image saturation, the image noise, and the integrated imaging effect index. A linear weighted function is employed to carry out the SIEA computation and the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) technique is used to estimate its weights. Second, a SIEA software is developed. It can play images after the settings of assessment index or assessment reaction time, etc. Third, two cases are used to illustrate the application effects of proposed method: the image enhancement system design for surveillance camera and the imaging environment perception system design for intelligent lighting terminal. A Prior Sequential Stimulus (PSS) experiment is proposed to improve the evaluation stability of SIEA method. Many experiment results have shown the proposed method can realize a stable system design or parameters setting for the intelligent imaging terminal in engineering site.

This paper describes the implementation of automatic number-braille converter based on image processing for the blind people. The algorithm is consists of four main steps. First step is binary image conversion of the input image obtained by the camera. the second step is segmentation operation by means of dilation and labelling of the character. Next step is calculation of cross-correlation between segmented text image and pre-defined text-pattern image. The final step is generation of brail output which is relevant to input image. The computer simulation result was showing 91.8% correct conversion rate for arabian numbers which is printed in A4-sheet and practical possibility was also confirmed by using implemented automatic number-braille converter based on DSP image processing board.
