  • RADARSAT is one of many possible data sources that can play an important role in marine surveillance including ship detection because radar sensors have the two primary advantages: all-weather and day or night imaging. However, atmospheric effects on SAR imaging can not be bypassed and any remote sensing image has various geometric distortions. In this study, radiometric and geometric calibrations for RADARSAT/SAR data are tried using SGX products georeferenced as level 1. For radiometric calibration, information on the magnitude of the radar backscatter coefficient of the imaged terrain is extracted from the processed image data. Conversion method of the pixel DNs to beta nought and sigma nought is also investigated Finally, automatic geometric calibration based on the header file is compared to a marine chart.

  • The main objective of this study is to provide an effective algorithm of the transmitted solar radiation calculation through window glazing on a clear day. This algorithm would be used in developing a computer program for fenestration system analysis and shading device design. Various simulation methods have been evaluated to figure out the most accurate and effective procedure in estimation of transmitted solar radiation on a tilted surface on a clear day. Characteristics of simulated results of each step have been scrutinized by comparing them with measured results of the site as well as results from other simulation programs. Generally, the Duffie & Beckman's solar calculation method introducing the HDKR anisotropic model provided the most reliable simulation results. The DOE-2 program usually provided over-estimated simulation results. The estimation of extraterrestrial solar radiation and beam normal radiation were conducted pretty accurately. However, the solar radiation either on horizontal surface or on tilted surface involves complicated factors in estimation. Even though the estimation results were close to the real measured data during summer when solar intensity is getting higher, the estimation provided more error when solar intensities were getting weaker. The convex polygon clipping algorithm with homogeneous coordinates was fastest model in calculation of sunlight to shaded area ratio. It could not be applied because of its shape limitation.

  • In this paper, we implemented the sign board system that displays user's image, user's sentence, the information from DARC an[1 information based position by GPS module for vehicle. The existing sign board is displaying only user's image and sentence. Or other existing sign board is displaying the information via CDMA network. However, our system is also able to display the user's message like other system and gain the information more cheap by DARC. This system consists of 6 parts. The DARC control part classes the DARC information - news, weather, stock and time. The GPS control part gains moment and item to display with calculating the information of global position, direction, speed and satellite. The LED control part has two buffers to store and handle the image. The buffers help the system display various effected images on LED board. An external memory card includes the location based data, the option file and the displayed data files. The data files are stored by FAT 16 with the folder structure on external memory card. The USB controls the communication with PC. PC programs can control and monitor this system. This system is using G72l voice file format, for casting the information. This system was established at the vehicle and we monitored this system. The system displayed the DARC data , user's data and the location based data on the LED board, successfully.

  • The grid computing is a technique to solve big problems such as a field of scientific technique by sharing the computing power and a big storage space of the numerous computers on the distributed network. The environment of the grid computing is composed with the WAN which has a different performance and a heterogeneous network condition. Therefore, it is more important to reflect heterogeneous performance elements to calculation work. In this paper, we propose an efficient method that decides work process number of each node by considering a network state information. The network state information considers the latency, the bandwidth and latency-bandwidth mixture information. First, using information which was measured, we compute the performance ratio and decide work process number of each node. Finally, RSL file was created automatically based on work process number which was decided, and then accomplishes a work. The network performance information is collected by the NWS. According to experimental results, the method which was considered of network performance information is improved respectively 23%, 31%, and 57%, compared to the methods of existing in a viewpoint of work amount, work process number, and node number.

  • RADARSAT is one of many possible data sources that can play an important role in marine surveillance including ship detection because radar sensors have the two primary advantages: all-weather and day or night imaging. However, atmospheric effects on SAR imaging can not be bypassed and any remote sensing image has various geometric distortions, In this study, radiometric and geometric calibrations for RADARSAT/SAT data are tried using SGX products georeferenced as level 1. Even comparison of the near vs. far range sections of the same images requires such calibration Radiometric calibration is performed by compensating for effects of local illuminated area and incidence angle on the local backscatter, Conversion method of the pixel DNs to beta nought and sigma nought is also investigated. Finally, automatic geometric calibration based on the 4 pixels from the header file is compared to a marine chart. The errors for latitude and longitude directions are 300m and 260m, respectively. It can be concluded that the error extent is acceptable for an application to open sea and can be calibrated using a ground control point.

  • Numerous maritime safety technologies and systems are being developed to support safe navigation at Sea. e-Navigation is a representative system for maritime safety. It is being developed to maximize the ships safety by applying most maritime safety technologies. The e-Navigation system is being developed by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) with the aim of introducing it by 2019. South Korea has already recognized the importance of maritime safety support technology and is actively introducing e-Navigation. Korean e-Navigation is being designed to provide diverse functions for maritime safety, such as providing an optimal safe route, risk analysis, and weather information. Service modules that provide e-Navigation's each function use different types of data that are difficult to configure as a single database. In this paper, we analyze the data needed for Korean e-Navigation, the data service system structure and types that can effectively support it.

  • If we use the microwave of SAR, we can observe ocean in spite of severe weather or night time. The sea surface image of SAR has numerous information about atmospheric phenomena related to surface wind field. The extracted wind information from SAR can be used diversely. In order to extract sea wind speed from SAR image, a generated wind direction from SAR and sigma nought should be input into wind model. Therefore, wind speed can be obtained by input wind direction into CMOD5 Model. Azimuth angle using CMOD5 Model is generated by added $90^{\circ}$ to Look angle which is extracted from SAR data file. A gained wind direction spectrum from SAR image has $180^{\circ}$ ambiguity because of 2D-FFT. This ambiguity should decide to use the location of land, wind direction in field or the result of numerical model. Consequently, wind direction using 2D-FFT is $3^{\circ}{\sim}7^{\circ}$ differences with actual surveying data. Wind speed by CMOD5 model is similar to actual surveying data as below 2m/s.

  • The International Maritime Organization is developing a maritime safety system called eNavigation in order to effectively respond to accidents occurring on board vessels. Korea is actively participating in the development of eNavigation and is developing Korean eNavigation by adding its own concept to eNavigation of the IMO. eNavigation is designed to provide various functions for marine safety. The data required for each function is various such as spatial data, relational data, file, weather grid. Therefore, there is a need for a system that can appropriately provide heterogeneous data suitable for eNavigation to each eNavigation's service system. In this paper, we analyzed the kinds of data needed for e-Navigation and designed the architecture of heterogeneous data service system that could provide these data properly.

  • Recently, the damage caused by flash floods caused by extreme weather due to global warming is increasing. In order to reduce the damage, this paper conducted a study on the search for the shortest route of an evacuation route due to a flash flood. For this, we implemented a route search system using GIS and shape files including buildings and roads and Dijkstra's algorithm. In this study, the location of users close to the point where the flash flood occurs is identified, and the evacuation route is searched from the starting point to the destination point without passing through the dangerous point. Evacuate out of the test bed, or designate a building in the test bed as an evacuation shelter, and search for a route to the nearest evacuation shelter. Accordingly, it is expected that human damage will be reduced by providing the shortest evacuation route.

  • Due to the increase in renewable energy and distributed resources, not only traditional data but also various energy-related data are being generated in the new energy industry. In other words, there are various renewable energy facilities and power generation data, system operation data, metering and rate-related data, as well as weather and energy efficiency data necessary for new services and analysis. Energy big data processing technology can systematically analyze and diagnose data generated in the first half of the power production and consumption infrastructure, including distributed resources, systems, and AMI. Through this, it will be a technology that supports the creation of new businesses in convergence between the ICT industry and the energy industry. To this end, research on the data analysis system, such as itemized characteristic analysis of the collected data, correlation sampling, categorization of each feature, and element definition, is needed. In addition, research on data purification technology for data loss and abnormal state processing should be conducted. In addition, it is necessary to develop and structure NIFI, Spark, and HDFS systems so that energy data can be stored and managed in real time. In this study, the overall energy data processing technology and system for various power transactions as described above were proposed.
