  • 본 연구에서는 금강 상류의 용담댐 유역(930.0 km2)을 대상으로 Sentinel-1 SAR(Synthetic Aperture Radar) 및 Sentinel-2 MultiSpectral Instrument(MSI) 위성영상을 활용한 토양수분 산출연구를 수행하였다. 연구에 사용된 자료는 10 m 해상도의 Sentinel-1 IW(Interferometric Wide swath) mode GRD(Ground Range Detected) product의 VV(Vertical transmit-Vertical receive) 및 VH(Vertical transmit-Horizontal receive) 편파자료와 Sentinel-2 Level-2A Bottom of Atmosphere(BOA) reflectance 자료를 2019년에 대해 각 6일 및 5일 간격으로 구축하였다. 위성영상의 Image processing은 SNAP(SentiNel Application Platform)을 활용하여 Sentinel-1 영상의 편파 별(VV, VH) 후방산란계수와 Sentinel-2의 적색(Band-4) 및 근적외(Band-8) 영상을 생성하였다. 토양수분 산출 모형은 다중선형회귀모형(Multiple Linear Regression Model)을 활용하였으며, 각 지점에 해당하는 토양 속성별로 모형을 생성하였다. 모형의 입력자료는 Sentinel-1 위성의 편파별 후방산란계수, Sentinel-1 위성에서 산출된 식생지수 RVI(Radar Vegetation Index)와 Sentinel-2 위성에서 산출된 NDVI(Normalized Difference Vegetation Index)를 활용하여 식생의 영향을 반영하고자 하였다. 모의 된 토양수분을 검증하기 위해 6개 지점의 TDR(Time Domain Reflectometry) 기반 실측 토양수분 자료를 수집하고, 상관계수(Correlation Coefficient, R), 평균제곱근오차(Root Mean Square Error, RMSE) 및 IOA(Index of Agreement)를 활용하여 전체 기간 및 계절별로 나누어 검증할 예정이다.

  • The land cover map derived from spectral features of high resolution optical images has low spectral resolution and heterogeneity in the same land cover class. For this reason, despite the same land cover class, the land cover can be classified into various land cover classes especially in vegetation area. In order to overcome these problems, detailed vegetation classification is applied to optical satellite image and SAR(Synthetic Aperture Radar) integrated data in vegetation area which is the result of pre-classification from optical image. The pre-classification and vegetation classification were performed with MLC(Maximum Likelihood Classification) method. The hierarchical land cover classification was proposed from fusion of detailed vegetation classes and non-vegetation classes of pre-classification. We can verify the facts that the proposed method has higher accuracy than not only general SAR data and GLCM(Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix) texture integrated methods but also hierarchical GLCM integrated method. Especially the proposed method has high accuracy with respect to both vegetation and non-vegetation classification.

  • The effect of wavelet pair choice in the compression of the satellite images is studied. There is a trade-off between compression rate and perception quality. The encoding ratio is used to express the compression rate, and Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio (PSNR) is also used for the perceptional performance. The PSNR and the encoding ratio are not matched well for the images with various wavelet pairs, but the tendency is remarkable. It is hard to find the pattern of PSNR for sampled images. On the other hand, there is a pattern of the variation range of the encoding ratio for each image. The satellite images have larger values of the encoding ratio than those of nature images (close range images). Depending on the wavelet pairs, the PSNR and the encoding ratio vary as much as 13.2 to 21.6% and 16.8 to 45.5%, respectively for each image. For Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images the encoding ratio varies from 16 to 20% while for the nature images it varies more than 40% depending on the choice of wavelet pairs. The choice of wavelet for the compression affects the nature images more than the satellite images. With the indices such as the PSNR and the encoding ratio, the satellite images are less sensitive to the choice of wavelet pairs. A new index, energy concentration ratio (ECR) is proposed to investigate the effect of wavelet choice on the satellite image compression. It also shows that the satellite images are less sensitive than the nature images. Nevertheless, the effect of wavelet choice on the satellite image compression varies at least 10% for all three kinds of indices. However, the important of choice of wavelet pairs cannot be ignored.

  • The Republic of Korea is very vulnerable to damage from storm and flood due to the rainfall phenomenon in summer and the topography of the narrow peninsula. The damage is recently getting worse because of the concentration rainfall. The accurate damage information production and analysis is required to prepare for future disaster. In this study, we analyzed the water surface area changes of Byeokjeong, Sajeom, Subu and Boryeong using Sentinel-1 satellite imagery. The surface area of the Sentinel-1 satellite, taken from May 2015 to August 2019, was preprocessed using RTC and image binarization using Otsu. The water surface area of reservoir was compared with the storage capacity from WAMIS and RIMS. As a result, Subu and Boryeong showed strong correlations of 0.850 and 0.941, respectively, and Byeokjeong and Sajeom showed the normal correlation of 0.651 and 0.657. Thus, SAR satellite imagery can be used to objective data as disaster management.

  • Rice production with adequate level of area is important for decision making of rice supply and demand policy. It is essential to grasp rice cultivation areas in advance for estimating rice production of the year. This study was carried out to classify paddy rice cultivation in Gimje-si using sentinel-1 SAR (synthetic aperture radar) and UAV imagery in early July. Time-series Sentinel-1A and 1B images acquired from early May to early July were processed to convert into sigma naught (dB) images using SNAP (SeNtinel application platform, Version 8.0) toolbox provided by European Space Agency. Farm map and parcel map, which are spatial data of vector polygon, were used to stratify paddy field population for classifying rice paddy cultivation. To distinguish paddy rice from other crops grown in the paddy fields, we used the decision tree method using threshold levels and random forest model. Random forest model, trained by mainly rice cultivation area and rice and soybean cultivation area in UAV image area, showed the best performance as overall accuracy 89.9%, Kappa coefficient 0.774. Through this, we were able to confirm the possibility of early estimation of rice cultivation area in Gimje-si using UAV image.
