This paper presents a fire detection criterion based on flame color, spatial and temporal characteristic analysis of color fire images. To propose the criterion, Firstly the fire candidate regions were selected by using analyzed Cr and Y threshold value, and then texture analysis of candidate regions was performed by using DCT. Finally variation of Y values of these regions was calculated for temporal analysis. The proposed fire detection criterion was simulated by using fifteen test images and practicality was verified.

It is important to maintain information by application or 3D modeling through the satellite and UAV image which is a real world. The prevention business has recognized the need for accurate 3-D geospatial information around the disaster region to identify objects to 3D modeling. In this paper, we presented an approach to create 3D model and loading, processing the image using GIS techniques, and the digital topographic maps were used for the DEM and the features of the area. The result is a implementation of the simple application that illustrates the objects in 3-D. The presented approach will be used for identifying objects and assisting in regional planning around the airfields.

This paper proposed an adaptive threshold method for detecting flame candidate regions in a infrared image and it adapts according to the contrast and intensity changes in the image. Conventional flame detection systems uses fixed threshold method since surveillance environment does not change, once the system installed. But it needs a adaptive threshold method as requirements of surveillance system has changed. The proposed adaptive threshold algorithm uses the dynamic behavior of flame as featured parameter. The test result is analysed by comparing test result of proposed adaptive threshold algorithm and conventional fixed threshold method. The analysed data shows, the proposed method has 91.42% of correct detection rate and false detection is reduced by 20% comparing to the conventional method.

The geo-referencing of satellite imagery is a key task in remote sensing. GCPs are points the position of which is known both in the image and in the supporting maps. Mapping function makes the determination of map coordinates of all image pixels possible. Generally manual operations are done to identify image points corresponding to the points on a digital topographic map. In order to accurately measure ground coordinates of GCPs, differential global positioning system (DGPS) surveying are used. To acquire the sufficient number of well distributed GCPs is one of the most time-consuming and cost-consuming tasks. This paper describes the procedure of automatically extracting GCOs using GCP database. GCP image chips and image matching technique are used for automatic extraction of GCPs. We developed image processing tool for making image chip GCPs and Web Server for management of GCPs.

The first Geostationary Ocean Color Imager (GOCI) onboard its Communication Ocean and Meteorological Satellite (COMS) is scheduled for launch in 2008. GOCI includes the eight visible-to-near-infrared (NIR) bands, 0.5km pixel resolution, and a coverage region of 2500 ${\times}$ 2500km centered at 36N and 130E. GOCI has had the scope of its objectives broadened to understand the role of the oceans and ocean productivity in the climate system, biogeochemical variables, geological and biological response to physical dynamics and to detect and monitor toxic algal blooms of notable extension through observations of ocean color. The special feature with GOCI is that like MODIS, MERIS and GLI, it will include the band triplets 660-680-745 for the measurements of sun-induced chlorophyll-a fluorescence signal from the ocean. The GOCI will provide SeaWiFS quality observations with frequencies of image acquisition 8 times during daytime and 2 times during nighttime. With all the above features, GOCI is considered to be a remote sensing tool with great potential to contribute to better understanding of coastal oceanic ecosystem dynamics and processes by addressing environmental features in a multidisciplinary way. To achieve the objectives of the GOCI mission, we develop the GOCI Data Processing System (GDPS) which integrates all necessary basic and advanced techniques to process the GOCI data and deliver the desired biological and geophysical products to its user community. Several useful ocean parameters estimated by in-water and other optical algorithms included in the GDPS will be used for monitoring the ocean environment of Korea and neighbouring countries and input into the models for climate change prediction.

The digital signal processing technique by bandwidth compression has been grown up ragidly owing to integrated circuit developments. In this project, we have proposed the Lee Weighted Hadamard (LWH) transform which retains the main properties of Hadamard matirx. The LWH matrix was weighted in the center of the spatial domain. The human visual of the mid spatial are emphasized more than the low and high spatial frequencies. The fast algorithms of the LWH transform has been studied for hardware realization. The result of this project are availabel to airplane photograph, X-Ray, CATV and the artificial satellite of the digital image processing.

Generally there is a technical gap for the image data quality between from the satellite requirement values and from the users. After Cal/Val for KOMPSAT-3 had been done by Dec. 31, 2012, all requirements for KOMPSAT-3 image data quality have been validated, and then the normal operation of it started from Jan. 2013. In the normal period, the image data quality for the users has been defined and managed, and according to the result of it, the additional Cal/Val items have been doing. Cal/Val team and Processing team in KARI made the quality report (QR) for KOMPSAT-3 image data quality for the users, and have determined the quality level of KOMPSAT-3 product generated by Processing system (PMS; Product Management System) and managed the quality report for it. According to the result of the quality report, Cal/Val team defined six additional Cal/Val items, and has done five items of them and has been implementing the result of them into the Processing system.

Recently, KARI developed "KOMPSAT-2 Terminal for Polar Station" which is high performance system newly required for stimulating KOMPSAT-2 application. The KOMPSAT-2 Terminal for Polar Station consists of one receiving system and two processing systems. The receiving system has been installed at Svalbard Satellite Station located at Norwegian Svalbard island. and the two receiving systems have been installed at Kongsberg Satellite Service AS located at Tromso Norway and Spot Image SA located at Toulouse France respectively. In this paper overall items of KOMPSAT-2 Terminal for Polar Station, which includes requirements, designs and operation concepts, are to be addressed with the verification result on its performance.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the hazard of landslides at Penang, Malaysia, using a Geographic Information System (GIS) and remote sensing. Landslide locations were identified in the study area from interpretation of aerial photographs and from field surveys. Topographical and geological data and satellite images were collected, processed, and constructed into a spatial database using GIS and image processing. The factors chosen that influence landslide occurrence were: topographic slope, topographic aspect, topographic curvature and distance from drainage, all from the topographic database; lithology and distance from lineament, taken from the geologic database; land use from TM satellite images; and the vegetation index value from SPOT satellite images. Landslide hazardous area were analysed and mapped using the landslide-occurrence factors by logistic regression model. The results of the analysis were verified using the landslide location data and compared with probabilistic model. The validation results showed that the logistic regression model is better prediction accuracy than probabilistic model.
