Using virtual reality technology, users can learn and experience many interactions in virtual space like the actual physical space. This study was conducted to develop air flow simulator that allows farmers and consultants to consult air flow through VR devices by creating a greenhouse or pigpen model. It can help educate farmers about the importance of ventilation effects for agricultural facilities. We proposed CFD visualization system by building a virtual reality environment and constructing database of CFD and structure of agricultural facilities. After consultants can set up situations according to environmental conditions, the users experience the visualized air flow of agricultural facility according to the ventilation effects. Also it can provide a quantified environmental distribution in the agricultural facility. Currently, the CFD data in agricultural facilities are established during winter and summer. In order to experience various environmental conditions in the developed system, The experts need to run CFD data under various environmental conditions and register them in the system requirements.

The number of smart farms has increased to save labor in agricultural production as the subsidy become available from central and local governments. The number of illegal greenhouses has also increased, which causes serious issues for the local governments. In the present study, we developed Mask-RCNN model to detect greenhouses based on satellite images. Greenhouses in the satellite images were labeled for training and validation of the model. The Mask-RC NN model had the average precision (AP) of 75.6%. The average precision values for 50% and 75% of overlapping area were 91.1% and 81.8%, respectively. This results indicated that the Mask-RC NN model would be useful to detect the greenhouses recently built without proper permission using a periodical screening procedure based on satellite images. Furthermore, the model can be connected with GIS to establish unified management system for greenhouses. It can also be applied to the statistical analysis of the number and total area of greenhouses.

우리나라는 생활용수의 대부분을 지표수에 의존하고 있는 실정이다. 그러나 지표수는 가뭄과 같은 기상변화, 수질사고 등으로 물 공급의 안정성에 문제가 되기도 한다. 향후 기후변화는 가뭄의 빈도와 강도를 증대시킬 것으로 파악되므로 수질 및 수량의 문제를 더욱 악화시킬 것으로 예상된다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 지표수를 대수층 내에 인공적으로 함양한 뒤 대수층의 자연정화 기능에 의해 여과된 양질의 청정원수를 생산하는 기술을 본 연구에서 현장에 실증 적용하는 시설을 구축하였다. 이러한 기술은 기존의 지하 대수층을 이용하는 강변여과 등이 갖는 장점을 취하고 단점을 보완하였으며 친환경적이며 지속가능한 용수공급뿐만 아니라 청정 원수 확보를 통해 정수처리비용을 절감, 장기간의 가뭄이나 지표수 수질사고 시에 비상용수 공급 등 기존 취수원들과 달리 많은 장점을 갖고 있는 대규모 청정지하저수지 시험시설이다. 청정 지하저수지 기술이 주로 적용되는 지역은 해안지역 또는 하구 델타지역을 대상으로 한다. 해안 또는 델타지역은 해수침투로 인하여 염지하수가 부존되어 있기 때문에 지하수자원 활용에 매우 제한적이다. 따라서 지표수(담수)를 전처리하여 대수층에 인공적으로 함양을 하여 염지하수 대수층 안에 담지하수(담수체)를 형성할 수 있다. 이는 염수와 담수의 밀도차에 의해 희석되지 않는 특성을 이용한 기술이다. 청정 지하저수지 시험시설은 크게 지표수 취수시설, 전처리시설, 주입정, 양수정, 운영시스템으로 나눌 수 있다. 주입정 및 양수정은 원형의 형태로 지하저수지 조성범위 중심부에 9개의 주입정과 외각에 8개의 양수정을 설치하였다. 시험시설의 운영 과정은 하천수를 취수하여 전처리시설에서 탁도를 제거한 후, 피압대수층 염지하수에 동력으로 주입을 한다. 이때 기존에 부존되어 있던 염지하수를 밀어내고 담수체 지하수 형성을 유도한다. 일정기간 주입을 통해 목표 담수체를 만들어 내면 양수정에서 담수를 취수하되, 대수층의 모래자갈층을 일정거리 이동하여 취수하는 방식이다. 즉, 하천수를 대수층에 함양하고, 일정거리를 이동하여 취수하는 ASTR 방식의 대체수자원 확보 기술이다. 시험시설은 통합운영센터를 통해 원격감시 및 각종 제어/계측을 실시하며, 모니터링된 자료는 운영시스템에서 관리한다. 본 연구시설에서는 대수층 주입, 관정폐색, 미생물/지화학 수질반응, 지하수모니터링, 지반변형 등이 주요 핵심 연구를 진행하고 있도록 시설을 구성하였다. 본 시험시설은 2015년 8월 착공하여 2016년 4월에 완공 예정이며, 2016년 3월부터 주입을 시작하여 6개월간 피압대수층에 주입을 실시하고 이후부터 주입과 양수를 병행할 계획이다.

Aerospace and geospatial technologies have become more accessible by researchers and agricultural practitioners, and these technologies can play a pivotal role in transforming current pest management practices in agriculture and forestry. During the past 20 years, technologies including satellites, manned and unmanned aircraft, spectral sensors, information systems, and autonomous field equipment, have been used to detect pests and apply control measures site-specifically. Despite the availability of aerospace and geospatial technologies, along with big-data-driven artificial intelligence, applications of such technologies to apple IPM have not been realized yet. Using a case study conducted at the Korea Apple Research Institute, this article discusses the advances and limitations of current aerospace and geospatial technologies that can be used for improving apple IPM.

Detection of surface water features including river, wetland, reservoir from the satellite imagery can be utilized for sustainable management and survey of water resources. This research compared the water indices derived from the multispectral bands and the machine learning technique for detecting the surface water features from he Landsat-8 satellite image acquired in Daegu through the following steps. First, the NDWI(Normalized Difference Water Index) image and the MNDWI(Modified Normalized Difference Water Index) image were separately generated using the multispectral bands of the given Landsat-8 satellite image, and the two binary images were generated from these NDWI and MNDWI images, respectively. Then SVM(Support Vector Machine), the widely used machine learning techniques, were employed to generate the land cover image and the binary image was also generated from the generated land cover image. Finally the error matrices were used for measuring the accuracy of the three binary images for detecting the surface water features. The statistical results showed that the binary image generated from the MNDWI image(84%) had the relatively low accuracy than the binary image generated from the NDWI image(94%) and generated by SVM(96%). And some misclassification errors occurred in all three binary images where the land features were misclassified as the surface water features because of the shadow effects.

The river network is one of the essential topographical characteristics in river management. The river network which as previously constructed by the ground surveying method has recently begun to be efficiently constructed using the remote sensing datasets. Since it is difficult to remove these obstacles such as bridges in the urban rivers, it is rare to construct the urban river networks with the various obstacles. In this study, the Sentinel-2 satellite imagery was used to develop the automatic method for detecting the urban river networks without the obstacles and with the preserved boundaries as follows. First, the normalized difference water index image was generated using the multispectral bands of the given Sentinel-2 satellite imagery, and the binary image that could classify the water body and other regions was generated. Next, the morphological operations were employed for detecting the complete river networks with the obstacles removed and the boundaries preserved. As a result of applying the proposed methodology to Han River in Seoul, the complete river networks with the obstacles removed and the boundaries preserved were well constructed.

Recently, with the worldwide development of the fourth industry, the development of technologies for smart and eco-friendly ships is accelerating. With the emergence of autonomous vessels with complete unmanned or minimum personnel on board and eco-friendly fuel (methane, ammonia, electricity, etc.), the role of existing seafarers on board is expected to change significantly. To improve the competitiveness of seafarers in the future, predicting future seafarer occupation groups, improving the educational curriculum, and creating an educational system are necessary. In this study, eight occupational groups that seafarers may have in the future were derived through a review of earlier studies and brainstorming of maritime university students, incumbent seafarers and expert groups. A survey was conducted on the eight occupational groups using the Likert scale, and based on the results, a leading occupational group related to future seafarer was derived. The most likely occupational groups with high scores were remote control centre operators and cargo remote manager. In addition, essential educational elements to be educated first for these occupational groups were derived and presented.

In this paper, we propose a system for monitoring air pollutants such as fine dust using an unmanned aerial vehicle capable of autonomous navigation. The existing air quality management system used a method of collecting information through a fixed sensor box or through a measurement sensor of a drone using a control device. This has disadvantages in that additional procedures for data collection and transmission must be performed in a limited space and for monitoring. In this paper, to overcome this problem, a GPS module for location information and a PMS7003 module for fine dust measurement are embedded in an unmanned aerial vehicle capable of autonomous navigation through flight information designation, and the collected information is stored in the SD module, and after the flight is completed, press the transmit button. It configures a system of one-stop structure that is stored in a remote database through a smartphone app connected via Bluetooth. In addition, an HTML5-based web monitoring page for real-time monitoring is configured and provided to interested users. The results of this study can be utilized in an environmental monitoring system through an unmanned aerial vehicle, and in the future, various pollutants measuring sensors such as sulfur dioxide and carbon dioxide will be added to develop it into a total environmental control system.
