In this study, 3D positioning of CCT digital imagery was done by using a personal computer image processing method to increase the economic and time efficiency of SPOT satellite imagery. Image matching technique which applies statistical theories, was applied to acqusition of satellite imagery. The reliability of these coordinates was anlysed to presente a new algorithm for three dimensional positioning necessary in digital elevation modelling and orthophoto production. In acquiring image coordinates from CCT digital satellite imagery, accuracy of planimetric and height coordinates was improved by applying the image matching technique and it was found through analysis of correlation factors between sizes of target window that 19$\times$19 pixels was the most suitable size for image coordinate acquisition. From these results, it was able to present an algorithm about utility of digital imagery in the analysis of SPOT satellite data.

The need for edge detection about topography data from the high resolution satellite imagery is happening with increasing frequency according to many people utilize the its imagery as various fields recently. Many experts is recognizing of other GIS will make use of the road detection from the high resolution satellite imagery, including ITS (Intelligent Transportation Systems) and urban planning. This paper is comparative analysis of LPF (Low Pass Filtering) and HPF (High Pass Filtering) for roads edge detection from high resolution satellite imagery. As a result, LPF and HPF can be highlight selective pixels at edge area about input data. In case or applying to other techniques such as LPF for the same purpose, they aye more effective for wide road width which often cause the slight distortion of boundary or overall change of brightness values on the whole Image. Whereas, HPF has ability to enhance selectively detailed components in a target image.

Although sustainable development of a city should in theory be based on updated spatial information like land cover/use changes, in practice there are no effective tools to get such information. However the development of satellite and sensor technologies has increased the supply of high resolution satellite data, allowing cost-effective, multi-temporal monitoring. Especially KOMPSAT-1(KOrea Multi-Purpose SATellite) acquired a large number of images of the whole Korean peninsula and covering some large cities a number of times. In this study land-use patterns and trends of Daejeon from the year 2000 to the year 2003 will be considered using land use maps which are generated by manual interpretation of multi-temporal KOMPSAT EOC imagery and to show the possibility of using high resolution satellite remote sensing data for urban analysis.

Change detection is a useful technology that can be applied to various fields, taking temporal change information with the comparison and analysis among multi-temporal satellite images. Especially, change detection that utilizes high-resolution satellite imagery can be implemented to extract useful change information for many purposes, such as the environmental inspection, the circumstantial analysis of disaster damage, the inspection of illegal building, and the military use, which cannot be achieved by lower middle-resolution satellite imagery. However, because of the special characteristics that result from high-resolution satellite imagery, it cannot use a pixel-based method that is used for low-resolution satellite imagery. Therefore, it must be used a feature-based algorithm based on the geographical and morphological feature. This paper presents the system that builds the change map by digitizing the boundary of the changed object. In this system, we can make the change map using manual or semi-automatic digitizing through the user interface implemented with a floating window that enables to detect the sign of the change, such as the construction or dismantlement, more efficiently.

To monitor process of vegetation rehabilitation at the damaged area after large-fire is required a lot of manpowers and budgets. However the analysis of vegetation recovery using satellite imagery can be obtaining rapid and objective result remotely in the large damaged area. Space and airbone sensors have been used to map area burned, assess characteristics of active fires, and characterize post-fire ecological effects. Burn severity incorporates both short- and long-term post-fire effects on the local and regional environment. Burn severity is defined by the degree to which an ecosystem has changed owing to the fire. To classify fire damaged area and analyze burn severity of Samcheok fire area occurred in 2000, Cheongyang fire 2002, and Yangyang fire 2005 was utilized Landsat TM and ETM+ imagery. Therefore the objective of the present paper is to quantitatively classify fire damaged area and analyze burn severity using normalized burn index(NBR) of pre- and post-fire's Landsat satellite imagery.

Satellite imagery information have not been fully utilized due to the low R&D investment in remote sensing application though Korea had succeeded in developing series of earth observing satellites during the last decades. However, another series of earth observing satellites such as KOMPSAT 3, 3-A, 5 are going to be launched in the near future. And recent global warming issues stimulate both private and public sectors to make the most of satellite imagery information. Therefore, it is inevitable to promote the utilization of Korean satellite imagery information. In this study, we analyzed the demand and restrictions in exploitation of satellite imagery information in Korea through the online survey and interview. The results showed that the standardization of pre-processing, service of detailed technical information, fast and reliable image data delivery system are mostly required.

The geographical phenomena in space are well observed in the specific scale. This scale is called the operational scale. For an analysis of the optimum scale, it is needed to measure and represent the characteristics of attribute information extracted from the satellite imagery. The development of remote sensing technique makes various images with different resolution available. Researchers can select the image with optimum resolution for their analysis among various resolutions. For an effective analysis of the scale characteristics of satellite image, we investigated the characteristics of attribute information extracted from satellite image with different resolution. The two stage-procedure for exploring the optimum resolution proposed in this study was tested by applying to the satellite imagery covering Sunchon bay. This procedure can be an effective tool utilizing the scale characteristics of attribute information extracted from satellite imagery.

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.

This study was conducted to compare the level of vegetation recovery based on the forest restoration techniques (natural restoration and artificial restoration) determined using the satellite imagery that targeted forest fire damaged areas in Goseong-gun, Gangwon-do. The study site included the area affected by the Goseong forest fire (1996) and the East Coast forest fire (2000). We conducted a time-series analysis of satellite imagery on the natural restoration sites (19 sites) and artificial restoration sites (12 sites) that were created after the forest fire in 1996. In the analysis of satellite imagery, the difference normalized burn ratio (dNBR) and normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) were calculated to compare the level of vegetation recovery between the two groups. We discovered that vegetation was restored at all of the study sites (31 locations). The satellite image-based analysis showed that the artificial restoration sites were relatively better than the natural restoration sites, but there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups (p > 0.05). Therefore, it is necessary to select a restoration technique that can achieve the goal of forest restoration, taking the topography and environment of the target site into account. We also believe that in the future, accurate diagnosis and analysis of the vegetation will be necessary through a field survey of the forest fire-damaged sites.
