This study attempts to establish a system extracting and monitoring cultural grounds of seaweeds (lavers, brown seaweeds and seaweed fulvescens) and abalone on the basis of both KOMPSAT-2 and Terrasar-X data. The study areas are located in the northwest and southwest coast of South Korea, famous for coastal cultural grounds. The northwest site is in a high tidal range area (on the average, 6.1 min Asan Bay) and has laver cultural grounds for the most. An semi-automatic detection system of laver facilities is described and assessed for spacebome optic images. On the other hand, the southwest cost is most famous for seaweeds. Aquaculture facilities, which cover extensive portions of this area, can be subdivided into three major groups: brown seaweeds, capsosiphon fulvescens and abalone farms. The study is based on interpretation of optic and SAR satellite data and a detailed image analysis procedure is described here. On May 25 and June 2, 2008 the TerraSAR-X radar satellite took some images of the area. SAR data are unique for mapping those farms. In case of abalone farms, the backscatters from surrounding dykes allows for recognition and separation of abalone ponds from all other water-covered surfaces. But identification of seaweeds such as laver, brown seaweeds and seaweed fulvescens depends on the dampening effect due to the presence of the facilities and is a complex task because objects that resemble seaweeds frequently occur, particularly in low wind or tidal conditions. Lastly, fusion of SAR and optic spatial images is tested to enhance the detection of aquaculture facilities by using the panchromatic image with spatial resolution 1 meter and the corresponding multi-spectral, with spatial resolution 4 meters and 4 spectrum bands, from KOMPSAT-2. The mapping accuracy achieved for farms will be estimated and discussed after field verification of preliminary results.

합성 개구면 레이다(synthetic aperture radar: SAR) 위성은 주 야와 날씨에 관계없이 객체의 전자기적 산란분포를 2차원 영상으로 제공할 수 있기 때문에, 광학 위성에 비해 객체 분석에 효과적으로 이용될 수 있다. SAR 위성의 지구 관측주기를 고려한다면, 한 번에 넓은 범위를 관측하는 것이 객체분석에 유리하다. 하지만, 관측범위가 넓어질수록 위성 SAR 영상의 해상도가 저하되는 문제점이 있다. 이는 기존 레이다 신호처리에 이용되었던 해상도 향상 기법을 이용하여 극복될 수 있지만, 아직 해상도 향상 기법을 위성 SAR 영상에 적용하여 그 성능을 분석한 연구는 미미한 실정이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 위성 SAR 영상에 대한 기존 해상도 기법의 적용 가능성을 탐색하는 연구를 수행한다. 구체적으로, 한국항공우주연구원에서 운용 중인 다목적실용위성 5호(Korea multi-purpose satellite-5: KOMPSAT-5) 영상에 객체 탐지를 수행하고, 외삽(extrapolation), RELAX(relaxation), MUSIC(multiple signal classification) 기법을 적용하여 해상도를 향상시킨 후, 그 성능을 분석한다.

최근 많은 수의 지구관측용 광학위성이 개발되어 위성영상에 대한 수요가 증가하고 있다. 따라서, 위성영상의 활발한 활용을 위해서 신속한 전처리 과정이 요구된다. 위성영상 정합은 두 영상을 하나의 특정한 좌표계로 변환하여 등록하는 기술로서 원격탐사 분야에서 영상정합 기술은 서로 다른 대역의 영상을 정렬하거나, 두 위성영상 간의 상대적인 위치 오차를 수정하는데 사용된다. 본 논문에서는 서로 다른 Ground Sample Distance (GSD)를 가지는 위성영상 간의 자동 영상정합 방법을 제안하였다. 제안방법은 개선된 특징점 매칭방법과 강인한 변환모델 추정기법을 기반으로 하며, 다음과 같이 5가지 처리과정으로 구성된다: 중첩 영역 계산, 개선된 특징점 탐지, 특징점 매칭, 강인한 변환모델 추정, 영상 리샘플링. 특징점 탐지를 위해서 중첩영역을 추출하여 두 영상의 GSD가 유사하도록 영상 리샘플링을 수행하였다. 특징점 매칭 단계에서는, Oriented FAST and Rotated BRIEF (ORB) 알고리즘을 사용하여 영상정합 성능을 향상시켰다. 영상정합 실험은 KOMPSAT-3A와 RapidEye영상을 실험대상으로 수행되었으며 제안방법의 성능검증은 정성적, 정량적 두 가지 방법으로 수행되었다. 영상정합의 재투영오차는 RapidEye GSD를 기준으로 1.277 (8.3 m)에서 1.608 (10.452 m)의 픽셀 정확도를 보였다. 즉, 결론적으로, 제안방법을 통해 이종해상도 위성영상의 영상정합 가능성을 확인하였다.

지구 관측 위성은 크게 광학 관측 위성과 레이더 관측 위성으로 분류할 수 있다. 위성의 형태는 임무의 종류에 따라 결정된다. 광학 위성의 경우 높은 지상 해상도가 요구되는 경우 적당하며, 기상 조건에 관계없이 영상을 얻기 위해서는 레이더 관측 위성이 적합하다. 국내에서도 정보의 중요성이 증가됨에 따라 위성의 필요성이 증가되었다. 이러한 이유로 본 논문에서는 지구 관측 위성의 개발 동향 및 현황을 기술하였다. 이러한 위성 기술의 추세를 고려하여 국내 위성 개발이 계획되어야 할 것이다.

Ground processing for geostationary weather satellite such as GOES, MTSAT includes the process called image navigation. Image navigation means the retrieval of satellite navigational parameters from images and requires landmark detection by matching satellite images against landmark chips. For an automated preprocessing, a matching must be performed automatically. However, if match results contain errors, the accuracy of image navigation deteriorates. To overcome this problem, we propose the use of a robust estimation technique, called Random Sample Consensus (RANSAC), to automatically detect mismatches. We tested GOES-9 satellite images with 30 landmark chips. Landmark chips were extracted from the world shoreline database. To them, matching was applied and mismatch results were detected automatically by RANSAC. Results showed that all mismatches were detected correctly by RANSAC with a threshold value of 2.5 pixels.

This study refers to develop a semi-automatic extraction of agricultural land use and vegetation information using high resolution satellite images. Data of IKONOS satellite image (May 25 of 2001) and QuickBird satellite image (May 1 of 2006) which resembles with the spatial resolution and spectral characteristics of KOMPSAT3. The precise agricultural land use classification was tried using ISODATA unsupervised classification technique and the result was compared with on-screen digitizing land use accompanying with field investigation. For the extraction of vegetation information, three crops of paddy, com and red pepper were selected and the spectral characteristics were collected during each growing period using ground spectroradiometer. The vegetation indices viz. RVI, NDVI, ARVI, and SAVI for the crops were evaluated. The evaluation process is under development using the ERDAS IMAGINE Spatial Modeler Tool.

Change detection technology, which discovers the change information on the surface of the earth by comparing and analyzing multi-temporal satellite images, can be usefully applied to the various fields, such as environmental inspection, urban planning, forest policy, updating of geographical information and the military usage. In this paper, we introduce a change detection system that can extract and analyze change elements from high-resolution satellite imagery as well as low- or middle-resolution satellite imagery. The developed system provides not only 7 pixelbased methods that can be used to detect change from low- or middle-resolution satellite images but also a float window concept that can be used in manual change detection from highresolution satellite images. This system enables fast access to the very large image, because it is constituted by OGC grid coverage components. Also new change detection algorithms can be easily added into this system if once they are made into grid coverage components.

We present quantitative estimations of changes in the areal extent of coral reef habitats at Weno Island, Micronesia, using high-spatial-resolution remote sensing images and field observations. Coral reef habitat maps were generated from Kompsat-2 satellite images for September 2008 and September 2010, yielding classifications with 78.6% and 72.4% accuracy, respectively, which is a relatively high level of agreement. The difference between the number of pixels occupied by each seabed type was calculated, revealing that the areal extent of living corals decreased by 8.2 percentage points between 2008 and 2010. This result is consistent with a comparison of the seabed types determined by field observations. This study can be used as a basis for remediation planning to diminish the impact of changes in coral reefs.

Satellite remote sensing technology for ocean observation has evolved considerably in these last twenty years. Ocean color is one of the most important parameters of ocean satellite measurements. This paper describes a remote sensing of ocean color data project - Asian I-Lac Project; it also introduces several case studies using satellite images in the Asian waters. The Asian waters are related to about 30 Asian countries, representing about 60% of the world population. The project aims at generating long-term time series images (planned for 10 years from 1996 to 2006) by combining several ocean color satellite data, i.e., ADEOS-I OCTS and SeaWiFS, and some other sensors. Some typical parameters that could be measured include Chlorophyll- a (Chl-a), Colored Dissolved Organic Matter (CDOM), and Suspended Material (SSM). Reprocessed OCTS images display spatial variation of Chl-a, CDOM, and SSM in the Asian waters; a short term variability of phytoplankton blooms was observed in the Gulf of Oman in November 1996 by analyzing OCTS and NOAA sea surface temperature (SST)； Chl-a concentrations derived from OCTS and SeaWiFS have also been evaluated in coastal areas of the Taiwan Strait, the Gulf of Thailand, the northeast Arabian Sea, and the Japan Sea. The data system provides scientists with capability of testing or developing ocean color algorithms, and transferring images for their research. We have also analyzed availability of OCTS images. The results demonstrate the potential of long-term time series of satellite ocean color data for research in marine biology, and ocean studies. The case studies show multiple applications of satellite images on monitoring of coastal environments in the Asian Waters.
