In this paper, we proposed a river water level detection and tracking of the river or dams based on image processing system. In past, most of the water level detection system used various water sensors. Those water sensors works perfectly but have many drawbacks such as high cost and harsh weather. Water level monitoring system helps in forecasting early river disasters and maintenance of the water body area. However, the early river disaster warning system introduces many conflicting requirements. Surveillance camera based water level detection system depends on either the area of interest from the water body or on optical flow algorithm. This proposed system is focused on water scaling area of a river or dam to detect water level. After the detection of scale area from water body, the proposed algorithm will immediately focus on the digits available on that area. Using the numbers on the scale, water level of the river is predicted. This proposed system is successfully tested on different water bodies to detect the water level area and predicted the water level.

Reservoir water level data identify the current water storage of the reservoir, and they are utilized as primary data for management and research of agricultural water. For the reservoir storage management, Korea Rural Community Corporation (KRC) installed water level stations at around 1,600 agricultural reservoirs and has been collecting the water level data every 10 minutes. However, various kinds of outliers due to noise and erroneous problems are frequently appearing because of environmental and physical causes. Therefore, it is necessary to detect outlier and improve the quality of reservoir water level data to utilize the water level data in purpose. This study was conducted to detect and classify outlier and normal data using two different models including the threshold model and the artificial neural network (ANN) model. The results were compared to evaluate the performance of the models. The threshold model identifies the outlier by setting the upper/lower bound of water level data and variation data and by setting bandwidth of water level data as a threshold of regarding erroneous water level. The ANN model was trained with prepared training dataset as normal data (T) and outlier (F), and the ANN model operated for identifying the outlier. The models are evaluated with reference data which were collected reservoir water level data in daily by KRC. The outlier detection performance of the threshold model was better than the ANN model, but ANN model showed better detection performance for not classifying normal data as outlier.

본 연구에서는 CCTV 영상을 이용한 기존 수위감지 알고리즘의 한계점을 보완하기 위하여 Region growing 기법을 적용하였다. 먼저 세 가지 기법(수평 투영 프로파일, Texture 분석, Optical flow)을 적용해 물 영역을 추정하고, 기법별 결과를 종합 분석하여 최초 수위를 설정하였다. 이후 최초 수위를 기준으로 Region growing을 통해 수위 변화를 지속적으로 감지하도록 하였다. 그 결과, 주변 환경요인에 영향 없이 수위를 올바르게 감지하였으며, 영상분석 결과에 대한 전반적인 오차 평균은 5% 미만인 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, 본 알고리즘이 하천이 아닌 도심지 내 침수 도로 영상에서도 물 영역이 감지되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 이러한 결과는 전국에 설치된 수많은 CCTV 영상을 통해 자동적으로 수위를 감지함으로써 제한된 인력으로 상시 모니터링이 어려웠던 점을 보완할 수 있으며, 집중호우, 태풍 등으로 인해 발생되는 사고발생 위험성을 사전에 인지하여 예방할 수 있는 기반을 마련하는데 기여할 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

Bromate is a disinfection by-product generated mainly from the oxidation of bromide during the ozonation and disinfection process in order to remove pathogenic microorganism of drinking water, and classified as a possible human carcinogen by International Agency for Research of Cancer (IARC) and World Health Organization (WHO). For the purpose of determining the trace level concentration of bromate, several sensitive techniques are applied mostly based on suppressed conductivity detection and UV/Visible detection after postcolumn reaction (PCR). In this study, the suppressed conductivity detection method and the PCR-UV/Visible detection method through the triiodide reaction were compared to analyze the trace bromate in water samples and estimated for the availability of these analytical methods. In addtion, the state-of-the-art techniques was applied for the determination of trace level bromate in various water matrices, i.e., soft drinking water, hard drinking water, mineral water, swimming pool water, and raw water. In comparison of two analytical methods, it was found that the conductivity detection had the suitable advantage to simultaneously analyze bromate and inorganic anions, however, the bromate might not be precisely quantified due to the matrix effect especially by chloride ion. On the other hand, the trace bromate was analyzed effectively by the method of PCR-UV/Visible detection through triiodide reaction to satisfactorily minimize the matrix interference of chloride ion in various water samples, showing the good linearity and reproducibility. Furthermore, the method detection limit (MDL) and recovery were 0.161 ㎍/L and 101.0-108.1 %, respectively, with a better availability compared to conductivity detection.

BACKGROUND: Contaminated water was a major source of food-borne pathogens in various recent fresh produce-related outbreaks. This study was conducted to investigate the microbial contamination level and correlations between the level of sanitary indicator bacteria and the detection ratio of pathogens in agricultural water by logistic regression analysis. METHODS AND RESULTS: Agricultural water was collected from 457 sites including surface water (n=300 sites) and groundwater (n=157 sites) in South Korea from 2018 to 2020. Sanitary indicator bacteria (total coliform, fecal coliform, and Escherichia coli) and food-borne pathogens (pathogenic E. coli, E. coli O157:H7, Salmonella spp., and Listeria monocytogenes) were analyzed. In surface water, the coliform, fecal coliform, and E. coli were 3.27±0.89 log CFU/100 mL, 1.90±1.19 log CFU/100 mL, and 1.39±1.26 log CFU/100 mL, respectively. For groundwater, three kinds of sanitary indicators ranged in the level from 0.09 - 0.57 log CFU/100 mL. Pathogenic E. coli, Salmonella and Listeria monocytogenes were detected from 3%-site, 1.5%- site, and 0.6%-site water samples, respectively. According to the results of correlations between the level of sanitary indicator bacteria and the detection ratio of pathogens by logistic regression analysis, the probability of pathogen detection increased individually by 1.45 and 1.34 times as each total coliform and E. coli concentration increased by 1 log CFU/100mL. The accuracy of the model was 70.4%, and sensitivity and specificity were 81.5% and 51.7%, respectively. CONCLUSION(S): The results indicate the need to manage the microbial risk of agricultural water to enhance the safety of fresh produce. In addition, logistic regression analysis is useful to analyze the correlation between the level of sanitary indicator bacteria and the detection ratio of pathogens in agricultural water.

In this paper, we propose a sensorless multi-function controller applicable for deep well water pumps using current detection method. The proposed system overcomes various drawbacks of existing sensored system and additional features like Over current protection function due to overload, Under current protection function for idling at low water level and Relay function for starting single phase motors and acts as a level indicator to detect water lever in real time by the current detection method. A prototype of the multi-function controller system is designed and all of its functions are tested in the laboratory. The application of the proposed controller ensures reduction in the power consumption and maintenance cost in the facilities like water and septic tanks, drainage and waste water system, oil and chemical tanks where deep well pumps are used.

Water level of the Tonle Sap is largely influenced by the Mekong River. During the wet season, the lacustrine landform and vegetated areas are covered with water. Change detection in this area provides information required for human activities and sustainable development around the Tonle Sap. In order to detect the changes in the Tonle Sap floodplain, fifteen ALOS-PALSAR L-band data acquired from January 2007 to January 2009 and examined in this study. Since L-band is able to penetrate into vegetation cover, it enables us to study the changes according to water level of floodplain developed in the rainforest. Four types of images were constructed and studied include 1) ratio images, 2) correlation coefficient images, 3) texture feature ratio images and 4) multi-color composite images. Change images (in each 46 day interval) extracted from the ratio images, coherence images and texture feature ratio images were formed for detecting land cover change. Two RGB images are also obtained by compositing three images acquired in the early, in the middle and at the end of the rainy season in 2007 and 2008. Combination of the methods results that the change images present the relationship between vegetation and water level, leaf fall forest as well as cultivation and harvest crop.

Open surface water body extraction is gaining popularity in recent years due to its versatile applications. Multiple techniques are used for water detection based on applications. Different applications of Radar as LADAR, Ground-penetrating, synthetic aperture, and sounding radars are used to detect water. Shortwave infrared, thermal, optical, and multi-spectral sensors are widely used to detect water bodies. A stereo camera is another way to detect water and different methods are applied to the images of stereo cameras such as deep learning, machine learning, polarization, color variations, and descriptors are used to segment water and no water areas. The Satellite is also used at a high level to get water imagery and the captured imagery is processed using various methods such as features extraction, thresholding, entropy-based, and machine learning to find water on the surface. In this paper, we have summarized all the available methods to detect water areas. The main focus of this survey is on water detection especially in small patches or in small areas. The second aim of this survey is to detect water hazards for unmanned vehicles and off-sure navigation.

The deaerator of a power plant is one of feedwater heaters in the secondary system, and it is located above the feedwater pumps. The feedwater pumps take the water from the deaerator storage tank, and the net positive suction head(NSPH) should always be ensured. To secure the sufficient NPSH, the deaerator tank is equipped with the level control system of which level sensors are critical items. And it is necessary to ascertain the sensor state on-line. For this, a model-based fault detection and diagnosis(FDD) is introduced in this study. The dynamic control model is formulated from the relation of input-output flow rates and liquid-level of the deaerator storage tank. Then an adaptive state estimator is designed for the fault detection and diagnosis of sensors. The performance and effectiveness of the proposed FDD scheme are evaluated by applying the operation data of Yonggwang Units 3 & 4.
