  • Damage to forest trees, caused by wildfire, changes their spectral reflectance signature. This factor led to the initiation of a research project at the Remote Sensing & GIS Laboratory, Kookmin University, to determine if multispectral data acquired by IKONOS could provide fire scar and bum severity mapping. This paper will present detail mapping of burned areas in the eastern coast of Korea with IKONOS imagery. In addition, a single post-burn Landsat-7 ETM+ data was used to compare with IKONOS, the study area. Burn severity map based on IKONOS image was found to be affected by strong topographic illumination effects in the mountain forest. But it has better the delineation of the bum-scarred area. In this study the NDVI was analyzed for geometric illumination conditions influenced by topography(slop, aspect and elevation) and shadow(solar elevation and azimuth angle).

  • In this paper, we describe the development of a Southeast Asia environmental information web portal based on near real time MODIS Level 2 and higher level products generated from the direct broadcast data received at the Centre for Remote Imaging, Sensing and Processing (CRISP). This web portal aims to deliver timely environmental information to interested users in the region. Interpreted data will be provided instead of raw satellite data to reduce operational requirements on our system, and to enable users with limited bandwidths to have access to the system.

  • Evapotranspiration estimations are essential for monitoring drought, wild land fire risk etc. In this study, a surface energy balance method, which combines meteorological observations with spectral data derived from remote sensing measurements, was used to estimate the regional evapotranspiration in the Mongolia, a large arid and semi-arid region with heterogeneous surface conditions. The Surface Energy Balance method has been applied to Landsat+ETM and NOAA-AVHRR sensors for the estimation of evapotranspiration in the grassland of Mongolia. As a result, a daily evapotranspiration map of Mongolia was produced.

  • In the recent year, Unmanned helicopters of airline industries are using in various industries such as monitoring system, agriculture and forest fire. A unmanned helicopter is needed a powerful engine for transport weighty payload and have to need a light weight. Therefore it is necessary a light weight transmission of the unmanned helicopter. Initially a rectangular transmission housing has been considered, but an empty space in the housing is not useful for light weight design. In this study, new model has been introduced into the transmission housing by using rapid prototyping. As a result, the weight of new transmission housing can be reduced very much as 67%.

  • 일반 가정이나 산업 현장에서 화재가 발생할 경우 인명 피해와 재산 피해가 막대하다고 할 수 있다. 이러한 막대한 피해를 막기 위하여 국가에서는 소화방재를 위한 법적 검토와 소방 안전교육 및 피난훈련을 실시하고 있다. 그러나 대부분의 화제 현장에서의 초기 대응은 대부분 분말소화기에 의존하고 있는 실정이다. 현재 새롭게 개발된 청정 소화약제를 활용한 고체에어로졸(fixed aerosol) 소화장치를 개발하여 화재 방지시스템을 개발하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 고체에어로졸 소화장치의 활용에 있어서 불꽃감지센서 및 열 감지센서의 데이터를 활용할 수 있고, 화재 발생 현장에 대한 현장 데이터를 원격지에서 모니터링 할 수 있는 유무선통신기반의 제어기 모듈을 개발하여 원격지 화재 현장을 보다 효율적으로 대응할 수 있는 시스템을 개발하고자 한다.

  • Monitoring contaminants in waste landfills on a seabed is important because the leachate affects the marine ecosystem and facility stability. The objective of this study is to optimize a time-domain reflectometry (TDR) probe using different coating materials and several electrodes to estimate contaminants in saline soil. Copper concentrations ranging from 0 mg/L to 10 mg/L were mixed in 3% salinity water to simulate contaminants in the ocean environment. Epoxy, top-coat, and varnish were used as coating materials, and two to seven electrodes were prepared to vary the number and arrangement of the electrodes. Test results showed that the varnish stably captured the increase in copper concentration, while the other coating materials became insensitive or caused leakage current. In addition, a TDR probe with more electrodes exhibited stable and distinct electromagnetic signals. Thus, the TDR probe with seven electrodes coated with varnish was effectively used to estimate contaminants in saline soil.
