식생지수(Vegetation Index, 이하 VI)는 위성영상의 각 밴드가 식생에 대해 나타내는 특징적 반사치를 이용하여 지피의 식생 유무와 상태를 표현하고 정량화(Quantification)가 가능하다. 본 연구는 개엽(aestivation) 전 주사된 광릉시험림 지역의 QuickBird 위성영상과 임소반도를 이용하여 수목분류간 VI의 비교를 목적으로 삼는다. VI는 식생 및 토양의 특성에 따라 많은 영향을 받게 되며 이러한 영향의 최소화를 통해서만 정확한 평가자료를 얻을 수 있기 때문에 토양부분을 제외한 수목과 상관관계가 높은 VI를 연구에 사용하였다. 그 결과 침엽수로 조림된 단순림(單純林)간의 분류는 용이하지 않았지만 개엽 전 낙엽송과 활엽수간의 분류체계에는 효과적임을 입증할 수 있었다.

This paper presents the results of Landsat-TM imagery applications for detecting spatial variations of the water environments in the Saemankeum (STLR) project areas. The simulated tidal flow patterns from a two -dimensional hydro - dynamic model and water quality data from STRL project were used for relationships with the satellite data. Unsupervised classification of the tidal water body reflects the overall flow patterns at a flooding tide. Regressive equations for water quality parameters were derived and used for supervised classifications. The results were found to be useful to synoptically evaluate the water environments during the construction stages of the STLR project.

Landuse maps are prepared from satellite imagery and field observations were conducted at various locations in the study area. Compared to the field data and NDVI and RVI thematic maps, NDVI is better than RVI, because it compensates for changing illumination conditions, surface slope, aspect and other factors. Clouds, water and snow have negative values for RVI and NDVI. Rock and bare soils have similar reflectance in both NIR and visible band, so RVI and NDVI are near zero. In forest areas with good vegetation cover, NDVI is high and landslide occurrence is less. But if annual and biennial vegetations are present and if cultivation practices are changed frequently, NDVI is medium and landslide occurrence is moderate. In areas where deforestation and settlement is in progress, NDVI is less and landslide occurrence is more. The NDVI FCC thematic map may be used as an important layer in GIS application for landslide studies. Analyzing other layers such as slope, rainfall, soil, geology, drainage, lineament, etc with NDVI FCC layer will give a better idea about the identity of landslide prone areas.

The multi-disciplinary research project Strengthening Local Authorities in Risk Management (SLARIM), initiated by ITC, includes three case study cities in Asia. An important question is: what are the essential data for risk management and how to access such data. The role of common sources (e.g. census data), data derived from remote sensing (high-resolution satellite imagery, aerial photos), and data from close sensing (field observation, including mobile GIS) to acquire essential risk management data will be discussed. Special attention is given to the question of the minimum area and to disaggregating population data. A few examples are given of Kathmandu / Lalitpur, Nepal.

A unique approach to access Landsat satellite imagery has been implemented on IBM PC microcomputer in order to generate image maps to be used as a substitute and/or supplement for a conventional topographic map. This method enables user to automatically: o extract a nominal image map, o geoencode or calibrate as an image map, and o create a multitemporal image file using CCTs containing precision processed Landsat MSS and TM images. These map extraction process includes: o location of map area in the selected CCT, o conversion of map coordinates to image coordinates, o extraction of map area, and o rotation of image to the true North/South and East/Weat direction.

Image co-registration is the process of overlaying two images of the same scene. One of which is a reference image, while the other (sensed image) is geometrically transformed to the one. Numerous methods were developed for the automated image co-registration and it is known as a timeconsuming and/or computation-intensive procedure. In order to improve efficiency and effectiveness of the co-registration of satellite imagery, this paper proposes a pre-qualified area matching, which is composed of feature extraction with Laplacian filter and area matching algorithm using correlation coefficient. Moreover, to improve the accuracy of co-registration, the outliers in the initial matching point should be removed. For this, two outlier detection techniques of studentized residual and modified RANSAC algorithm are used in this study. Three pairs of Landsat images were used for performance test, and the results were compared and evaluated in terms of robustness and efficiency.

Although EOC data have been frequently used in several applications since the launch of the KOMPSAT-1 satellite in 1999, its radiometric characteristics are not clear due to the inherent limitations of the on-board calibration system. The radiometric characteristics of remotely sensed imagery can be measured by the sensitivity of radiant flux coming from various surface features on the earth. The objective of this study is to analyze the radiometric characteristics of EOC data by simulating the sensor- received radiance. Initially, spectral reflectance values of reference targets were measured on the ground by using a portable spectre-radiometer at the EOC spectrum. A radiative transfer model, LOWTRAN, then simulated the sensor-received radiance values of the same reference target. By correlating the digital number (DN) extracted from the EOC image to the corresponding radiance values simulated from LOWTRAN, we could find the radiometric calibration coefficients for EOC image. The radiometric gain coefficients of EOC are very similar to those of other panchromatic optical sensors.

효율적인 물 관리를 위해서는 하천 유량 파악이 필수적이지만, 경제적 이유 등으로 인하여 현장에서 정확한 유량 자료를 꾸준히 확보하는 데에는 한계가 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 문제점을 극복하고자 SAR 영상을 이용하여 하천의 수위와 유량을 추정하였다. SAR 영상 자료는 악천후 및 주야의 영향을 받지 않는 ESA(European Space Agency)의 Sentinel-1 영상을 이용하였다. 위성자료에서 하천의 면적을 추출한 후 수위 및 유량과의 상관관계를 분석하였다. 촬영 시간 등에 의한 위성 영상의 조도 차이에 따른 하천 면적의 오차를 제거하기 위하여 영상을 보정하였고 주변 지역에 의한 오차를 줄이기 위하여 하천유역을 분리하여 면적을 추출하였다. 이를 통해 하천 면적과 수위 및 유량의 상관관계를 파악하였다. 국내 10여 개의 하천에 대하여 기법을 적용한 결과, 수위와 유량을 비교적 정확히 추정할 수 있었다. 본 연구의 결과는 미계측 유역의 수자원 관리 능력을 향상시킬 것으로 기대된다.

유량 자료는 수자원 계획 및 개발, 정책결정, 관련 시설 운영 등의 가장 기초가 되는 핵심 자료이다. 하지만 전세계적으로 많은 유역에서 경제적 이유 등으로 인해 현장에서 정확한 유량 자료를 확보하는데 한계가 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 문제점을 극복하고자 SAR 영상을 활용한 하천의 유량 추정 기법을 개발하였다. 악천후 및 주야의 영향을 받지 않는 SAR 영상 자료인 유럽항공우주국 ESA(European Space Agency)의 Sentinel-1 영상자료와 함께 한강홍수통제소에서 제공하는 지상 관측 자료를 사용하여, 위성 영상자료에서 하천의 면적을 추출한 후 유량과의 상관관계를 분석하였다. 촬영 시간 등에 의한 위성 영상의 조도 차이에 따른 하천 면적의 오차를 제거하기 위하여 각 관측소별로 영상을 보정하였고 주변 지역에 의한 오차를 줄이기 위하여 하천유역을 분리하여 면적을 추출하였다. 이를 통해 하천 면적과 유량의 상관관계를 파악하였다. 국내 10여 개의 하천에 대하여 기법을 적용한 결과, 유량을 비교적 정확히 추정할 수 있었다. 본 연구의 결과는 미계측 유역의 수자원 관리 능력을 향상시킬 것으로 기대된다.

Green Infrastructure has been considered as one of strategies for flood mitigation in cities. Although, the diverse benefits of green infrastructure implementation are studies, there is a lack of research on the relationship between spatial composition and configuration of green infrastructure and urban flood mitigation. To address this gap, this study 1) utilized high-resolution satellite imagery to analyze spatial composition and configuration of green infrastructure in highly developed seven cities in South Korea, and 2) conducted an empirical analysis to find the relationship between economic losses from flooding and spatial patterns of green infrastructure and development patterns. The results of this research will be helpful for urban planners to prepare green infrastructure implementation guidelines for effective urban flood mitigation.
