Classification of the land cover characteristics is a major application of remote sensing. The goal of this study is to propose an optimal classification process for electro-optical camera(EOC) of Korea Multi-Purpose Satellite(KOMPSAT). The study was carried out on Landsat TM, high spectral resolution image and KOMPSAT EOC, high spatial resolution image of Miho river basin, Korea. The study was conducted in two stages: one was image fusion of TM and EOC to gain high spectral and spatial resolution image, the other was land cover classification on fused image. Four fusion techniques were applied and compared for its topographic interpretation such as IHS, HPF, CN and wavelet transform. The fused images were classified by radial basis function neural network(RBF-NN) and artificial neural network(ANN) classification model. The proposed RBF-NN was validated for the study area and the optimal model structure and parameter were respectively identified for different input band combinations. The results of the study propose an optimal classification process of KOMPSAT EOC to improve the thematic mapping and extraction of environmental information.

The accuracy of input coordinates of ground control points and check points affects great influences to the results of ground coordinate computation in using SPOT digital image data. The original SPOT images displayed on CRT are not usually adequate for identifying the object features and determining the point positioning. Hence, appropriate image processing techniques such as contrast enhancement, subpixel interpolation, edge enhancement, and spatial filtering are needed. In this study, the principles of digital image processing needed for accurate three dimensional positioning and spectral characteristic analysis are investigated. The algorithms for the actual applications are developed and programmed. And using the developed image processing software, some SPOT P-mode and XS-mode images are merged into the SPOT P＋XS, the high-resolution color composite image.

조간대 지형의 발달과 변화에 대한 이해는 물순환 모델, 양식장 관리, 전자해도의 갱신, 연안개발 계획수립, 항로의 효율적 관리, 선박 안전항해, 상륙 작전 등에 있어서 매우 중요하다. 기존의 조간대 DEM 을 만드는 방법 중 위성영상을 이용한 waterline 방법과 선박을 이용한 음향측심(echo sounding) 방법이 있다. 이 연구의 목적은 위성 원격탐사 자료와 음향측심기 자료를 함께 사용하여 각각의 방법의 단점을 보완함으로서 조간대 DEM 의 정밀도를 향상시키는 것이다. 천수만 황도 조간대에 대해 음향측심에 의해 얻어진 자료를 관측소 조위와 단위를 일치시킨 후 광학위성으로부터 추출된 waterline 자료와 합성하여 DEM 을 제작하였다. 합성된 DEM 과 기존의 waterline 방법과 음향측심법으로 제작된 DEM 과 비교해 본 결과, 합성된 DEM 은 음향측심 자료에 의해 정밀도가 많이 향상되었으며 waterline 방법에 의해 지역적 특성이 잘 표현되었다. 따라서 개발된 방법은 음향측심 방법에 의해 만들어졌던 기존 해도의 정밀도를 업그레이드 하는데 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

In this manuscript, a new pansharpening model based on Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) was developed. Dilated convolution, which is one of the representative convolution technologies in CNN, was applied to the model by making it deep and complex to improve the performance of the deep learning architecture. Based on the dilated convolution, the residual network is used to enhance the efficiency of training process. In addition, we consider the spatial correlation coefficient in the loss function with traditional L1 norm. We experimented with Dilated Residual Networks (DRNet), which is applied to the structure using only a panchromatic (PAN) image and using both a PAN and multispectral (MS) image. In the experiments using KOMPSAT-3A, DRNet using both a PAN and MS image tended to overfit the spectral characteristics, and DRNet using only a PAN image showed a spatial resolution improvement over existing CNN-based models.

We demonstrate the preliminary results of ship detection application using synthetic aperture radar (SAR) and automatic identification system (AIS) together. Multi-frequency and multi-temporal SAR images such as TerraSAR-X and Cosmo-SkyMed (X-band), and Radarsat-2 (C-band) are acquired over the West Sea in South Korea. In order to compare with SAR data, we also collected an AIS data. The SAR data are pre-processed considering by the characteristics of scattering mechanism as for sea surface. We proposed the "Adaptive Threshold Algorithm" for classification ship efficiently. The analyses using the combination of the SAR and AIS data with time series will be very useful to ship detection or tracing of the ship.

파랑은 선박의 안전운항에 있어서 중요한 요소이다. 지금까지의 파랑관측은 부이와 같은 현장관측에 주로 의존하고 있으나, 근년 위성에 의한 리모트센싱의 기술이 발달함에 따라, 파랑계측에 분야에도 시도되고 있다. 하지만 국내에서는 SAR(합성개구레이더)의 처리 경험 자체가 부족하여 본격적인 연구개발이 시작되지 않고 있다. 본 연구에서는 SAR를 이용한 파랑계측을 하기 위한 초기단계로, 1) SAR화상에서 파랑의 영상화 메커니즘, 2) 파랑 스펙트럼 추정 기법의 소개를 하고자 한다.

In this study, the classification of cold water and normal water based on Geo-Kompsat 2A images was performed. Daily mean surface temperature products provided by the National Meteorological Satellite Center (NMSC) were used, and convolution neural network (CNN) deep learning technique was applied as a classification algorithm. From 2019 to 2022, the cold water occurrence data provided by the National Institute of Fisheries Science (NIFS) were used as the cold water class. As a result of learning, the probability of detection was 82.5% and the false alarm ratio was 54.4%. Through misclassification analysis, it was confirmed that cloud area should be considered and accurate learning data should be considered in the future.

In this paper, fundamentals and recent development of the interferometric synthetic aperture radar, known as InSAR, technique for measuring ground deformation through satellite image analysis are presented together with case histories illustrating its applicability to urban ground deformation monitoring. A study area in Korea was selected and processed based on the muti-temporal time series InSAR analysis, namely SBAS (Small Baseline Subset)-InSAR and PS (Persistent Scatterers)-InSAR using Sentinel-1A SAR images acquired from the year 2014 onward available from European Space Agency Copernicus Program. The ground settlement of the study area for the temporal window of 2014-2022 was evaluated from the viewpoint of the applicability of the InSAR technique for urban infrastructure settlement monitoring. The results indicated that the InSAR technique can reasonably monitor long-term settlement of the study area in millimetric scale, and that the time series InSAR technique can effectively measure ground settlement that occurs over a long period of time as the SAR satellite provides images of the Korean Peninsula at regular time intervals while orbiting the earth. It is expected that the InSAR technique based on higher resolution SAR images with small temporal baseline can be a viable alternative to the traditional ground borne monitoring method for ground deformation monitoring in the 4^th industrial era.

본 연구에서는 합성개구레이더(Synthetic Aperture Radar, SAR) 인공위성 영상을 활용한 풍수해 피해지역 감지 기법을 제안하고자 한다. SAR 인공위성 자료를 분석하여 풍수해 피해 중 지반의 변화량 및 변화양상 감지를 분석하였다. 연구지역은 울릉도 전역이며, 2016년 8월 30일 제 10호 태풍 라이언록에 의한 피해를 분석하였다. SAR Interferometry(InSAR) 기법을 적용하여 홍수 전, 후의 지반 변화량을 분석하였다. 분석결과의 정확도를 파악하기 위해 분석결과를 실제 피해사례 및 피해 사진 등과 비교, 분석하여 검증을 실시하였다. 검증결과, 정성적인 지반변화 및 변화양상은 판별되었으나, 정량적인 지반변화량 파악은 어려운 것으로 나타났다. 현재 국내지역에 대해 InSAR 기법을 적용하여 홍수 전, 후의 지반변화 감지를 적용해본 사례가 많지 않은 실정이며, 본 연구는 국내지역에 대해 InSAR 기법을 적용하여 풍수해 피해감지를 하였다는 의미가 있다.

Based on the requirements of a total weight of 42 kg or less, the NEXTSat-2 SAR (synthetic aperture radar) system was developed. As the NEXTSat-2 is a small-sized satellite, the SAR system was designed to account for about 40% of the dry mass of the payload relative to the total mass. Among the major components of the SAR system - which are an antenna, an RF transceiver, a baseband signal processor, and a power unit - a part with a particularly large dry mass is the antenna, the core of the SAR system. Whereas various selections are possible in consideration of gain and efficiency when designing the antenna, the micro-strip patch array antenna was adopted by reflecting the dry mass, power, and resolution required by the NEXTSat-2 project. In order to meet the mission requirement of the NEXTSat-2, the antenna was developed with a frequency of 9.65 GHz, a gain of 42.7 dBi, and a return loss of -15 dB. The performance of the antenna was verified by conducting a field test onboard the vehicle.
