We propose a method to evaluate a Modulation Transfer Function (MTF) using a circular target. In addition, a MATLAB GUI-based resolution analysis tool was developed to enhance the reliability of UAV image quality and the efficiency of the work. For this purpose, images were taken with an FC-6310 during flights at altitudes of 80 m, 120 m, and 150 m and by an iXM-100 at altitudes of 150 m, 200 m, and 400 m. The MTFs of UAV images were compared with traditional photogrammetry by measuring and analyzing MTFs on images taken by the UltraCAM Eagle Mark-2 sensor at a flight altitude of 1000 m. The results show that ${\sigma}MTF$ of the FC-6310 were 0.431(80 m), 0.524(120 m), and 0.699(150 m), and those of the iXM-100 were 0.332(150 m), 0.393(200 m), and 0.631(400 m), respectively. At the altitude of 150 m, the image quality of the iXM-100, which has a high-performance camera, was very high, and the effect of the camera performance on the image quality was confirmed. In addition, the ${\sigma}MTF$ of the UltraCAM Eagle Mark-2 was 0.711 due to the high flight altitude. This was the worst value among all UAV images. However, the ${\sigma}MTF$ of the FC-6310 at 150-m altitude was 0.699, which is almost the same as that of a manned aerial image.

The main feature of this study is to automatically synthesize square images by sending aerial photographs and images from unmanned aerial vehicles (drons). It may be applicable to the cloud server, and to apply analytical algorithms for the suitable purpose of image processing. Drone imaging analysis is a process that can be used in various fields such as finding contaminated area of green algae, monitoring forest fire, and managing crop cultivation.

In Analysis of Fragmentation of rock blasted, The photo analysis method has been mainly used and these image acquisitions are mainly obtained by digital image from the front of the crushed rock. However, Image analysis is basically advantage of the image of planar shooting not front shooting but There is no way to take a photograph of huge plane rock slope. Thus, Unavoidably It is resolved by distorting or extending the image filmed at the front as well as adjusting it similar to its angle of plane shooting. Lately, With advancing unmanned aerial vehicle, It can simply image the fragment conditions of blasted rock of a high-definition digital image and Through it, It can acquire the most planar image to angle which accumulate cataclastic rock and also can make image analysis. In this study, It has been confirmed that tolerance value of analysis result of image filmed flatly is markedly lower than the existing front filmed image.

DSM and orthoimage, which are representative results of UAV photogrammetry, are high-quality spatial information data and are widely used in various fields of spatial information industry in recent years. However, the UAV photogrammetry has a problem that the quality of the output of the UAV deteriorates due to the altitude of the UAV, the camera calibration, the weather conditions at the time of shooting, the performance of the GPS / IMU and the number of the ground reference points. The purpose of this study is to analyze the location accuracy of unmanned aerial photogrammetry according to the change of the number if ground control points. Experiments were made with fixed wing, and the shooting altitude was set at 130m and 260m. The number of ground reference points used was 9, 8, 5, and 4, respectively. Ten checkpoints were used. XY RMSE for orthoimage and Z RMSE for DSM were compared and analyzed. In addition, the resolution of the orthoimage was determined to affect the judgment of the operator in the verification of the planimetric position accuracy, and the visual resolution was analyzed using the Siemens star target. As a result of the analysis, the variation of the vertical position accuracy is larger than the variation of the planimetric position accuracy when the number of the ground reference points are different. Also The higher the flying height, the greater the effect of change of ground control points on position accuracy.

As the utilization of aerial images increases, a variety of software using unmanned aerial photogrammetric procedures as well as traditional aerial photogrammetric procedures are being provided. Previously, software that used the unmanned aerial photogrammetric procedure was used for images captured in small areas. Recently, however, software that uses unmanned aerial photogrammetric procedures for large-scale images taken by using aerial photogrammetric cameras has appeared. Therefore, this study generated ortho-images using aerial photogrammetry and unmanned aerial photogrammetry for large aerial images, and compared the features of both procedures through qualitative and quantitative comparisons. Experiments in the study area show that using the 3D mesh effectively removes the relief displacement of the building rather than using the digital surface model to generate ortho-images.

UAV(Unmaned Aerial Vehicle), which is autonomous flight without pilots. Recently, UAV is being applied to various fields such as video recording, aerial photogrammetry. In particular, UAV is getting a lot of attention in the field of space-related information because of it's data acquisition speed and economic feasibility. But analytical study of an unmanned air-side technologies are lacking. In this study, the research of equipment for the unmanned aerial surveys and UAV technologies and trend analysis for generation of terrain model and ortho image effectively were performed. As a result, the ways to improve the utilization field of unmanned aerial surveying and processing of fixed-wing and rotary-wing unmanned aircraft. were suggested. If analytical research on generation of terrain models and ortho image will be performed, production efficiency of the geospatial information industry is expected to be significantly increased.

Privacy-right infringement using unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) usually occurs due to the unregistered small UAV with the image data processing equipment. In this paper we propose that privacy protection acts, Personal Information Protection Act, Information and Communications Network Act, are complemented to consider the mobility of image data processing equipment installed on UAV. Furthermore, we suggest the regulations for classification of small UAVs causing the biggest concern of privacy-right infringement are included in aviation legislations. In addition, technological countermeasures such as recognition of UAV photographing and masking of identifying information photographed by UAV are proposed.

The first phase of architecture design is the field survey of the site and its surroundings. To gather the information there are two methods :the traditional method of an onsite survey, and recently using 3D geometry data and high quality image mapping from online services such as Google Earth. However, the urban condition is fast changing, and information from online services may lack sufficient information. This paper presents the to fast and effective site survey method for urban site using an affordable and fully automated UAV for the architectural design field.
