Abstract

Earlier research works focused on the seasonal patterns and bio-geochemical processes in sand dunes, and the satellite data and aerial photographs have been used only as a backdrop or for the multi-temporal delineation of sand dune area. In order to find the optimal way to extract features' characteristics, Gimnyeong sand dune area was selected as a study site. Field works have been carried out three times to collect ground control points and sand samples for laboratory analyses. The texture of sand dune is classified as fine sand, which has been derived from shell fragments. The sand dune penetrated into the island from northwest to southeast direction. An aerial photograph was re-sampled into one-meter resolution and rectified with software including Erdas Imagine and ENVI. Sub-scenes were chosen as samples for sand dune, urban area and rural area. K-group non-parametric analysis had been done for the geometric and spectral values of enclosed texture patches. Urban areas proved to have significant smaller patches than the others.

국내에서 해안사구의 생성과정 및 생물지화학적 특성에 대한 연구가 누적되어 왔지만 원격탐사방법을 이용한 분석은 범위를 파악하기 위한 수준으로 시각적 분석을 수행한 것이 대부분이다. 사구지역 범위 추출을 위한 적합한 질감분석방법을 찾아보기 위하여 제주도의 김녕사구지역을 대상으로 영상분석, 야외조사 및 통계분석을 실시하였다. 제주도 사구는 내륙으로 깊숙이 발달하고 있으며 현무암 돌담의 색채와 대비되어 단순 영상분류 분석보다는 질감분석을 적용할 경우 뚜렷한 범위를 도출할 수 있었다. 영상은 전처리 과정 이후에 Erdas Imagine과 ENVI 소프트웨어를 사용하였으며, 분산분석과 히스토그램 분석, 형태적 특성과 질감의 최고값에 대한 비모수 비교분석을 수행하였다. 도시지역은 농촌지역과 사구지역에 비해 질감의 변화가 폐합된 작은 폴리곤 형태를 나타내었으며, 사구지역은 도시지역과 유사한 높은 질감 변화값을 갖는다는 공통점을 갖는 반면에 폐합된 폴리곤의 크기는 농촌지역과 유사한 형태를 보여주는 이중적 특성을 보유하고 있었다. 하이패스필터적용 이후 생성된 사구지역의 폴리곤의 장축과 장축에 대한 단축의 비는 도시지역과 농촌지역에 비해 유의미하게 큰 것으로 나타났으며, 하이패스필터와 동일성 필터를 적용한 사례가 가장 효과적으로 도심지와 사구지역을 구별할 수 있었다.
