Since beginning of subway construction in 1974, for supplying the demand for increasing urban traffic and solving the traffic jam due to expansion of society and elevation of an individual income, the $1^{st}\;and\;2^{nd}$ construction have been almost done and $3^{rd}$ has been driving forward. However, according to an increment of com-mon usage with the passage of time, structures are superannuated and the amount of improvement and repairs keeps on increasing continuous. And many problems are taking place at underground space because of new constructions for underground facilities such as urban gas, electric power, waterworks, and sewerage. In consequence. The consideration of a counterplan for safety is required deeply This study analyzed problems on maintenance of structure about $1^{st}$ class subway, and will present means that a manage civil structures scientifically and systematically by using GSIS concept that imported into several organizations for facility management recently as making digital graphic elements and historic data into a database rather than using an old method - documents and paper drawings.

With the advances of the big-data process technology, acquiring the real-time information from the massive image data taken by a mobile device inside a vehicle will be possible in the near future. Among the information that can be found around the vehicle, the route information is needed for safe driving. In this study, the automatic extraction of route information from the road sign imagery was dealt with. The scope of the route information in this study included the route number, route type, and their relationship with the driving direction. For the recognition of the route number, the modified Tesseract OCR (Optical Character Recognition) engine was used after extracting the rectangular-road-sign area with the Freeman chain code tracing algorithm. The route types (expressway, highway, rural highway, and municipal road) are recognized using the proposed algorithms, which are acquired from colour space analysis. Those road signs provide information about the route number as well as the roads that may be encountered along the way. In this study, such information was called “OTW (on the way)” or “TTW (to the way)” which between the two should be indicated is determined using direction information. Finally, the route number is matched with the direction information. Experiments are carried out with the road sign imagery taken inside a car. As a result, route numbers, route number type, OTW or TTW are successfully recognized, however some errors occurred in the process of matching TTW number with the direction.

The object positional data in the form of digital imagery is processed and stored and is updated easily. The GPS, positioning system using satellites, is acquired its utilities in many parts because it is very easy to get the three dimensional coordinates using GPS around the world. For the effective acquisition of positional data to-ward objects in space, the automation of digital photogrammetry must be done and data acquisition and processing should be performed in real-time. In this study, the program is developed for automatic process of digital photogrammetry and the VAN that has CCD cameras and GPS receivers onboard is built for mobile positioning system. Also, the three dimensional positioning toward 20 objects which are vertical to the ground is done using left and right imagery of CCD cameras and GPS. For a base research in real-time photogrammetry, the three dimensional positioning is performed using continuous imagery and GPS and the three dimensional positioning accuracy is analyzed.

Zoom lenses CCD(Charge Coupled Device) cameras have many desirable features but appear to be geometrically unstable and diffcult to calibrate. It is well blown that the zooming camera parameters change with zoom lens position. This paper presents a comparative study of two approaches, namely, DLT(Direct Linear Transformation) introduced by Abdel-Aziz and Karara and the model proposed by Tsai, to evaluate the camera parameters of zoom lenses CCD camera and 3D positioning accuracy. As a result, the accuracy for 3D positioning using Tsai and DLT model is similar in both methods when the set of GCPs and the object are arranged in the same space. However, Tsai model is more stable than DLT in the case that the object is apart from the set of GCPs. Also, the further study for the parameters optimization of conventional DLT is needed to improve accuracy for 3D positioning.

Ionosphere is the largest error source on propagation of GPS signals. Dual frequency (L1,L2) GPS receiver can be effectively able to eliminate the ionosphere error by using linear combination of two frequencies, but the single frequency receiver (L1) have to compute the ionosphere error. In this research, we developed the new ionospheric model with $1^{\circ}$ by $1^{\circ}$ spatial resolution based on the grid from using 9 GPS reference stations which have been operated by KASI (Korea Astronomy and Space Science Institute) and computed TEC (Total Electron Contents) over South Korea by epoch. This paper gives the positioning results of Klobuchar model with that of a newly developed KASI regional ionospheric model and shows the positioning precision of the KASI regional ionospheric model along with TEC variation of ionosphere.

As delineating market areas of retail businesses has become an interesting topic in marketing field, Lee and Lee recently suggested a noteworthy method, which applied the hydrological analysis of geographical information system (GIS), based on Christaller's central place theory. They used a digital elevation model (DEM) which inverted the kernel density of retail businesses, which was measured by using bandwidths of pre-determined 500, 1000 and 5000 m, respectively. In fact, their method is not a fully data-based approach in that they used pre-determined kernel bandwidths, however, this paper has been planned to improve Lee and Lee's method by using a kind of data-based approach of the L-index that describes clustering level of point feature distribution. The case study is implemented to automobile-related retail businesses in Seoul, Korea with selected Kernel bandwidths, 1211.5, 2120.2 and 7067.2 m from L-index analysis. Subsequently, the kernel density is measured, the density DEM is created by inverting it, and boundaries of market areas are extracted. Following the study, analysis results are summarized as follows. Firstly, the L-index can be a useful tool to complement the Lee and Lee's market area analysis method. At next, the kernel bandwidths, pre-determined by Lee and Lee, cannot be uniformly applied to all kinds of retail businesses. Lastly, the L-index method can be useful for analyzing the space structure of market areas of retail businesses, based on Christaller's central place theory.

A study for 3D-reconstruction and providing the geospatial information is in progress to many fields recently. For efficient providing the geospatial information, the present information has to be updated and be revised and then the latest geospatial information needs to be acquired economically. Especially, LiDAR system utilized in many study has a advantage to collect the 3D spacial data easily and densely that is possible to supply to the geospatial information. The 3D data of LiDAR is very suitable as a data for presenting 3D space, but in case of using the data without converting, the high performance processor is needed for presenting 2D forms from point data composed by 3D data. In comparison, basically the raster data structure of 2D form is more efficient than vector structure in cheap devices because of a simple structure and process speed. The purpose of this study, in case of supplying LiDAR data as 3D data, present the method that reconstructs to 2D raster data and convert to compression data applied by th tree construction in detail.

Korea is developing a Korea Multi-Purpose Satellite I (KOMPSAT-1) as one of Korea National Space Program, which will be launched in 1999. The EOC (Electro-Optical Camera) is the primary payload for KOMP-SAT-1. The main mission of EOC is to provide the images for the production of scale maps of Korean territory. This research is focused on methodology and possibility for the production of topographic maps using EOC sensor. Since the imagery from EOC is not yet available, SPOT Level 1A image data which are quite similar to those of EOC, and Intergraph Imagestation (Digital Photogrammetric Workstation) are implemented in the process of sample digital map generation. The sample digital maps generated from SPOT stereoimages were compared and analyzed with the existing 1:50,000 scale digital map produced by National Geography Institute. The feasibility and problem encountered in 1:50,000 scale digital mapping using SPOT stereoimages were presented. Based on results, the feasibility and further research areas for KOMPSAT-EOC in the line of 1:25,000 and 1;50,000 digital mapping were discussed.

Open-pit mines are the critical infrastructure for acquiring natural resources. Since it could be endangered by environmental and safety problems during operations, continuous monitoring is required for this type of mine. However, the domestic level management and accumulation of present state data of the topographical alteration are incurred by the development and restoration of open-pit mines relying on digital topographic maps and site surveys. Because of it, other than an expert cannot be viewed easily examines those changes information of open-pit mines in the domestic level. If the efficient management and public access of the open-pit mine is targeted, it is easy to build a web-based three-dimensional monitoring system, utilized in the space information software of open source. Therefore, we purposed on developing an open-pit mine monitoring system to support the development and restoration of the ecology-friendly environment, which could be easily monitored by the general public for those changes within terrain and environments due to operations of the mine.

This paper aims at improving the accuracy and computational efficiency in reconstructing building boundaries from airborne Lidar points. We proposed an adaptive convex hull algorithm, which is a modified version of local convex hull algorithm in three ways. The candidate points for boundary are first selected to improve efficiency depending on their local density. Second, a searching-space is adjusted adaptively, based on raw data structure, to extract boundary points more robustly. Third, distance between two points and their IDs are utilized in detecting the seed points of inner boundary to distinguish between inner yards and inner holes due to errors or occlusions. The practicability of the approach were evaluated on two urban areas where various buildings exist. The proposed method showed less shape-dissimilarity(8.5%) and proved to be two times more efficient than the other method.
