Real-time Aerial Monitoring System (RAMS) is to perform the rapid mapping in an emergency situation so that the geoinformation such as orthophoto and/or Digital Elevation Model is constructed in near real time. In this system, the GPS/INS plays an very important role in providing the position as well as the attitude information. Therefore, in this study, the performance of an IMU sensor which is supposed to be installed on board the RAMS is evaluated. And the integration algorithm of GPS/INS are tested with simulated dataset to find out which is more appropriate in real time mapping. According to the static and kinematic results, the sensor shows the position error of 3$\sim$4m and 2$\sim$3m, respectively. Also, it was verified that the sensor performs better on the attitude when the magnetic field sensor are used in the Aerospace mode. In the comparison of EKF and UKF, the overall performances shows not much differences in straight as well as in curved trajectory. However, the calculation time in EKF was appeared about 25 times faster than that of UKF, thus EKF seems to be the better selection in RAMS.

Recently, development of IT technology and enhancement of spatial information technology increases the necessity about effective technology of damage investigation in the area of disaster prevention. Quick damage investigation is necessary to deal with the natural hazard and plan the recovery. To do this, UAV is the useful mean for quick damage investigation. In this study, it was evaluated based on UAV that utilization of real-time aerial monitoring system for effective damage investigation of natural hazard. Accuracy analysis was implemented to evaluate the application of this system. And utilization of damage investigation was evaluated based on the domestic regulations that is appled the system according to the type of hazard. As a result, damage investigation was possible about house, farmland, agriculture and forestry facilities and public facilities. Henceforth, it will be effectively possible to inspect damage for natural disaster and to establish restoration plan through utilization of acceptable image data by Real-time Aerial Monitoring System in real various natural disaster.

Real-time Aerial Monitoring System performs the rapid mapping in an emergency situation so that the geoinformation could be constructed in near real time. In this system, the position and attitude information from GPS/INS integration algorithm is used to perform the aerial triangulation(AT) without GCPs. Therefore, if we obtain Exterior Orientation(EO) estimates from AT sequentially, EO are used as the measurements in the Kalman filter. In this study, we simulate the GPS/IMS/Image data for an UAV-based aerial monitoring system and compare the GPS/INS/AT with and without from AT. Comparative analysis showed that result from the GPS/INS/AT with EO update is more accurate than without the update. However, when the vehicle turns, the position error significantly increases which need more analysis in the future.

To provide technological foundation for periodic and real-time land monitoring over the Korean peninsula where the land cover changes are prevailing, the Land Monitoring Research project was initiated as one of five core projects within the Intelligent National Land Information Technology Innovation Project operated by the Korean Land Spatialization Group (KLSG). This four year project can be categorized into two research themes with nine sub-projects. The first research theme is dealing with the real-time data acquisition from aerial platform and in-situ measurements by ubiquitous sensor network (USN), ground video camera, and automobile-based data collection systems. The second research theme is mainly focused on the development of application systems that can be directly utilized in several public organizations dealing with land monitoring over the nation. The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS)-based land monitoring system that is currently under development is one of such application systems designed to provide necessary information regarding the status and condition of land cover in near real-time.

The geo-referencing accuracy of the images acquired by a UAV based multi-sensor system is affected by the accuracy of the mounting parameters involving the relationship between a camera and a GPS/INS system as well as the performance of a GPS/INS system. Therefore, the estimation of the accurate mounting parameters of a multi-sensor system is important. Currently, we are developing a low altitude multi-sensor system based on a UAV, which can monitor target areas in real time for rapid responses for emergency situations such as natural disasters and accidents. In this study, we suggest a system calibration method for the estimation of the mounting parameters of a multi-sensor system like our system. We also generate simulation data with the sensor specifications of our system, and derive an effective flight configuration and the number of ground control points for accurate and efficient system calibration by applying the proposed method to the simulated data. The experimental results indicate that the proposed method can estimate accurate mounting parameters using over five ground control points and flight configuration composed of six strips. In the near future, we plan to estimate mounting parameters of our system using the proposed method and evaluate the geo-referencing accuracy of the acquired sensory data.
