Mapping applications using satellite imagery have been possible to quantitative analysis since SPOT satellite with stereo image was launched. Especially, high resolution satellite imagery was efficiently used in the field of digital mapping for the areas which are difficult to produce large-scale maps by aerial photogrammetry or carry out ground control point surveying due to unaccessibility. This study extracted the geospatial information out of consideration for topographic characteristic from ortho imagery of the National Geospatial-intelligence Agency(NGA) in the United States of America and analyzed the accuracy of plane coordinate for ortho imagery. For this purpose, the accuracy according to topographic character by comparison between both extraction data from ortho imagery and the digital topographic maps of 1:5000 scale which were produced by Korea National Geographic Information Institute(NGI) was evaluated. It is expected that the results of this study will be fully used as basic information for ground control point acquisition or digital mapping in unaccessible area.

In the classification of satellite images, the representative of training of classes is very important factor that affects the classification accuracy. Hence, in order to improve the classification accuracy, it is required to optimize pre-classification stage which determines classification parameters rather than to develop classifiers alone. In this study, the normality of training are calculated at the preclassification stage using SPOT XS and LANDSAT TM. A correlation coefficient of multivariate Q-Q plot with 5% significance level and a variance of initial training are considered as an object function of genetic algorithm in the training normalization process. As a result of normalization of training using the genetic algorithm, it was proved that, for the study area, the mean and variance of each class shifted to the population, and the result showed the possibility of prediction of the distribution of each class.

This paper proposes an automatic extraction method of control point based on Geospatial Web Service. The proposed method consists of 3 steps. 1) The first step is to acquires reference data using the Geospatial Web Service. 2) The second step is to finds candidate control points in reference data and the target image by SURF algorithm. 3) By using RANSAC algorithm, the final step is to filters the correct matching points of candidate control points as final control points. By using the Geospatial Web Service, the proposed method increases operation convenience, and has the more extensible because of following the OGC Standard. The proposed method has been tested for SPOT-1, SPOT-5, IKONOS satellite images and has been used military standard data as reference data. The proposed method yielded a uniform accuracy under RMSE 5 pixel. The experimental results proved the capabilities of continuous improvement in accuracy depending on the resolution of target image, and showed the full potential of the proposed method for military purpose.

For classifying fire damaged areas and analyzing burn severity of two large-fire areas damaged over 100 ha in 2011, three methods were employed utilized supervised classification, unsupervised classification and Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI). In this paper, the post-fire imageries of SPOT were used to compute the Maximum Likelihood (MLC), Minimum Distance (MIN), ISODATA, K-means, NDVI and to evaluate large-scale patterns of burn severity from 1 m to 5 m spatial resolutions. The result of the accuracy verification on burn severity from satellite images showed that average overall accuracy was 88.38 % and the Kappa coefficient was 0.8147. To compare the accuracy between burn severity and field survey at Uljin and Youngduk, two large fire sites were selected as study areas, and forty-four sampling plots were assigned in each study area for field survey. The burn severities of the study areas were estimated by analyzing burn severity (BS) classes from SPOT images taken one month after the occurrence of the fire. The applicability of composite burn index (CBI) was validated with a correlation analysis between field survey data and burn severity classified by SPOT5, and by their confusion matrix. The result showed that correlation between field survey data and BS by SPOT5 were closely correlated in both Uljin (r = -0.544 and p<0.01) and Youngduk (r = -0.616 and p<0.01). Thus, this result supported that the proposed burn severity analysis is an adequate method to measure burn severity of large fire areas in Korea.

지난 수십년간 대한민국은 고도의 경제성장을 하였다 수도 서울은 인구 증가, 농지의 감소, 도로 및 사회기반시설물의 건설, 하천정비 등의 과정을 거치면서 빠르게 도시화가 진행되었다. 이렇게 많은 변화가 일어난 서울 지역을 모니터링하고 분석하기 위한 시도는 여러 차례 있었으며 대표적인 예로 LANDSAT 영상을 이용한 도시화 분석이 환경부(2001, 8, 7)를 통해 발표되었다. 본 논문에서는 과거 미국의 고해상도 첩보위성 프로잭트인 CORONA 영상을 이용하여 지금으로부터 30여년 전의 서울의 모습을 재현할 수 있었으며 1990년대의 SPOT 영상과 비교하여 도시화가 얼마나 가속화되었는지를 분석하였다.

This study aims to generate digital elevation model from digital satellite imagery. Digital elevation model is being increasingly used for geo-spatial information system database development and for digital map production. Image matching technique was applied to acquire conjugate image coordinates and the algorithm for digital elevation model generation is presented in this study The exterior orientation parameters of the satellite imagery is determined by bundle adjustment and standard correlation was applied for image matching conjugate of image points. The window as well as the searching area have to be defined in image matching. Different sizes of searching area were tested to study the appropriate size of the searching area. Various coordinate transformation methods were applied to improve the computation speed as well as the geometric accuracy. The results were then statistically analysed after which the searching area is determined with the safety factor. To evaluate the accuracy of digital elevation model, 3-D coordinates were extracted from 1/5000 scale topographic map and this was compared to the digital elevation model generated from satellite imagery. The algorithm for generation of digital elevation model generated from satellite imagery is presented in this study which will prove effective in the database development of geo-spatial information system and in digital elevation modelling of large areas.

일반적으로 광학위성은 궤도가 부정확하여 지상기준점(GCP)을 이용하여 궤도를 보정하는 작업을 수행한 후 수치 표고모형 자료(DEM)를 추출한다. 지상기준점은 실제 측량이나 지형도로부터 얻게 되지만, 이러한 작업이 불가능한 경우에는 광학영상으로부터 수치 표고 모형 자료를 추출할 수 없다. 본 연구에서는 수-수십 cm의 위성 궤도 정확도를 지니는 ESA ERS영상과 약 1Km의 해상도를 지니는 GTOPO-30 DEM을 이용하여 지상기준점을 추출 방법에 대해 연구하였다. 연구지역인 대전 주변에 대하여 지상기준점을 추출한 결과 경도 -0.348초, 위도 0.293초의 오차를 나타내었다. 또한 추출된 지상기준점을 이용하여 한 쌍의 SPOT 위성영상으로부터 DEM을 추출이 가능하였으며, 레이더 interferometry 기술을 이용한 지형고도 추출 및 변화 탐지에도 활용될 수 있음을 확인하였다.

In this paper, a camera modeling method that utilizes ephemeris data and imaging geometry is presented. The proposed method constructs a mathematical model only with parameters that are contained in the leader file and does not require any ground control points for model construction. Control points are only needed to eliminate geolocation error of the model that is originated from errors in the parameters that are used in model construction. With few (one or two) of control points, RMS error of less than pixel size can be obtained and control points are not necessarily uniformly distributed over the entire scene. This advantage is crucial in large project and will enable to reduce project cost dramatically.

In this paper, a camera modeling method that utilizes ephemeris data and imaging geometry is presented. The proposed method constructs a mathematical model only with parameters that are contained in auxiliary files and does not require any ground control points for model construction. Control points are only needed to eliminate geolocation error of the model that is originated from errors embedded in the parameters that are used in model construction. By using a few (one or two) control points, RMS error of around pixel size can be obtained and control points are not necessarily uniformly distributed in line direction of the scene. This advantage is crucial in large-scale projects and will enable to reduce project cost dramatically.
