This paper presents a method of single image dehazing and feature matching for aerial remote sensing images. In the case of a aerial image, transferring the information of the original image is difficult as the contrast leans by the haze. This also causes that the image contrast decreases. Therefore, a refined transmission map based on a hidden Markov random field. Moreover, the proposed algorithm enhances the accuracy of image matching surface-based features in an aerial remote sensing image. The performance of the proposed algorithm is confirmed using a variety of aerial images captured by a Worldview-2 satellite.

In modern society, the use of small rotary-wing unmanned aerial vehicles such as drones is increasing. As the military considers tactics using drones, demand for drones is increasing. However, there is still no airworthiness certification standard for drones for safety. In this paper, we proposed airworthiness certification standards for small rotorcraft unmanned aerial vehicles based on CS-LURS in Europe and STANG-4703, 4738 (draft) of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. In addition, airworthiness certification standards have been strengthened through the case of unmanned aerial vehicle accidents in operation by the Korean military. The airworthiness certification standards for small rotary-wing unmanned aerial vehicles will be supplemented through a demonstration project.

Currently, in Korea, aerial photogrammetry is being studied for cadastral boundaries and numerical maps. Since the announced value of cadastral survey is closely related to ownership, the accuracy and reliability of the published value should be emphasized above all else. However, although aerial photogrammetry has great advantages in economic feasibility and surveying efficiency, it has many limitations when extracting the boundary of cadastral survey based on the acquired image. In order to improve these limitations, in this study, an aerial target was applied to obtain reliability improvement. Therefore, in order to examine the usefulness of aerial photogrammetry for cadastral survey application, cadastral boundary extraction and accuracy comparison analysis were conducted.

In the US, Japan and Germany the Aerial-Based Vehicle Detection System, which collects real-time traffic data using the Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV), helicopters or fixed-wing aircraft has been developed for the last several years. Therefore, this study was done to find out whether the Aerial-Based Vehicle Detection System could be used for real-time traffic data collection. For this purpose the study was divided into two parts. In the first part the possibility of retrieving real-time traffic data such as travel speed from the aerial photographic image using the image processing technique was examined. In the second part the quality of the retrieved real-time traffic data was examined to find out whether the data are good enough to be used as traffic information source. Based on the results of examinations we could conclude that it would not be easy for the Aerial- Based Vehicle Detection System to replace the present Vehicle Detection System due to technological difficulties and high cost. However, the system could be effectively used to make the emergency traffic management plan in case of incidents such as abrupt heavy rain, heavy snow, multiple pile-up, etc.

As primary source data toward the systematic and efficient management of national land, the aerial photographs have been utilized in many different areas. However, the quality of aerial photographs does not meet the requirement of the users due to unidentified miscellaneous reasons. Aiming for the improvement of the quality of aerial photographs, we first investigated the current status of domestic rules and working procedures related to aerial photographing and film processing in great details. In addition, we investigated and analyzed those of advanced nations such as U.S.A., Canada, G.B. and so on. It was drawn from the comparison and analysis that the poor quality of domestic aerial photographs resulted from lack of the quantitative and objective standards on aerial photography specification as well as poor condition and aging problem of equipments such as aerial camera and film developing equipment. In this paper, we proposed a stepwise strategic plan which consists of the aerial photography specification and quantitative quality control standard taking into consideration the current status of domestic rules and working procedures.

Because of the rapid increase of mobile traffic, flexible broadband supportive unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)-based 6G mobile networks using free space optical (FSO) links have been recently proposed. Considering the advancements made in UAVs, big data processing, and artificial intelligence precision control technologies, the formation of an additional wireless network based on UAV aerial platforms to assist the existing fixed base stations of the mobile radio access network is considered a highly viable option in the near future. In this paper, a combined time bound optimization scheme is proposed that can adaptively satisfy the control and communication time constraints as well as the processing time constraints in FSO-based 6G UAV aerial networks. The proposed scheme controls the relation between the number of data flows, input data rate, number of worker nodes considering the time bounds, and the errors that occur during communication and data processing. The simulation results show that the proposed scheme is very effective in satisfying the time constraints for UAV control and radio access network services, even when errors in communication and data processing may occur.

This study compared the nutritional composition and antioxidative activity of different parts of Taraxacum coreanum (aerial parts and roots) according to different drying methods (natural drying and freeze-drying). There were no significant differences in vitamin C content in roots depending on the drying methods. However, vitamin A (P<0.01), E (P<0.001) and C (P<0.001) content of aerial parts, and vitamin A (P<0.001) and E (P<0.05) content of roots were significantly higher after freeze-drying compared to natural drying. For organic acids, the oxalic acid content of the aerial parts and roots were the highest. The total polyphenol and total flavonoid content in extracts from the aerial parts (P<0.01) and roots (P<0.05) were significantly higher after freeze-drying compared to natural drying. In addition, the total polyphenol and flavonoid content, DPPH radical scavenging activity, and antioxidative index from the natural drying and freeze-drying of Taraxacum coreanum extracts were significantly higher in the aerial parts compared to the roots (P<0.05). These results suggest that the nutritional composition and antioxidative activity of Taraxacum coreanum are higher in the aerial parts compared to the roots, and higher after freeze-drying compared to natural drying. Therefore, the aerial parts of Taraxacum coreanum could be suggested as an antioxidative functional food source.
