Recently various thematic maps and image maps using aerial photograph and satellite imagery are frequently made. The geo-referencing is essential to make image map and topographic map using aerial photograph and satellite imagery. For this geo-referencing, Ground Control Points (GCPs) are needed. In this paper, we used GPS relative positioning to measure GCP ground coordinate and the accuracy of 8cm level was achieved. We made GCP image chips for the efficiency of geo-referencing and carried out the bundle adjustment of aerial photographs using GCP image chips to acquire the GCP photo coordinate with image matching technique. Finally we analyzed the accuracy of bundle adjustment compared to the accuracy of the case in using digital maps to acquire GCP photo coordinate.

To obtain large scale precise geographical information in local area we determined external orientation parameters of camn exactly and conducted aerial photography using remote control airship loaded 35mm non-metric camera that produced systematic error coefficients. Ground control Points were determined by differential GPS. Therefore we can try to improve accuracy and economical efficiency. Also, it is suggested that remote control airship photogrammetry can be applied to make large scale topographic map using analytical plotter as calibrated accuracy.

SLR (Satellite Laser Ranging) 데이터의 높은 거리측정 정밀도는 위성 추적 시스템의 검증 및 보정, 위성의 정밀궤도결정, 지구와 관련된 물리 상수 및 모델 검증, 우주파편과 같은 우주물체의 추적 및 감시 등에 활용이 가능하다. 특히 위성의 정밀궤도결정에 SLR 데이터를 활용하는 것은 고정밀 지구관측 위성 및 독자적인 항법 시스템 운영에 필수적인 부분이다. SLR 시스템은 위성 관측 가능 시간 및 지역이 한정되어 있기 때문에 정밀궤도 결정에 활용하는 것이 쉽지 않다. 따라서 이 연구에서는 SLR 데이터를 사용하기 위한 효율적인 정밀궤도결정 전략에 대해서 알아보았다. 동역학 및 관측 모델, 지상국의 개수, 초기 궤도 오차, 필터링 방법, 고도각에 따른 관측 데이터 선택 등의 기준을 선정하고 각각의 경우에 대해 정밀궤도결정을 수행하고 결과를 분석하였다. 정밀궤도결정 테스트를 위해서는 YLPODS (Yonsei Laser-ranging Precision Orbit Determination System)과 SLR정규점 (Normal Point) 데이터를 사용하였다. 이를 통해서 SLR 데이터를 사용하기 위한 효율적인 정밀궤도결정 전략에 대해 고찰해보았다.

In an unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) system, a physical offset can be existed between the global positioning system/inertial measurement unit (GPS/IMU) sensor and the observation sensor such as a hyperspectral sensor, and a lidar sensor. As a result of the physical offset, a misalignment between each image can be occurred along with a flight direction. In particular, in a case of multi-sensor system, an observation sensor has to be replaced regularly to equip another observation sensor, and then, a high cost should be paid to acquire a calibration parameter. In this study, we establish a precise sensor model equation to apply for a multiple sensor in common and propose an independent physical offset estimation method. The proposed method consists of 3 steps. Firstly, we define an appropriate rotation matrix for our system, and an initial sensor model equation for direct-georeferencing. Next, an observation equation for the physical offset estimation is established by extracting a corresponding point between a ground control point and the observed data from a sensor. Finally, the physical offset is estimated based on the observed data, and the precise sensor model equation is established by applying the estimated parameters to the initial sensor model equation. 4 region's datasets(Jeon-ju, Incheon, Alaska, Norway) with a different latitude, longitude were compared to analyze the effects of the calibration parameter. We confirmed that a misalignment between images were adjusted after applying for the physical offset in the sensor model equation. An absolute position accuracy was analyzed in the Incheon dataset, compared to a ground control point. For the hyperspectral image, root mean square error (RMSE) for X, Y direction was calculated for 0.12 m, and for the point cloud, RMSE was calculated for 0.03 m. Furthermore, a relative position accuracy for a specific point between the adjusted point cloud and the hyperspectral images were also analyzed for 0.07 m, so we confirmed that a precise data mapping is available for an observation without a ground control point through the proposed estimation method, and we also confirmed a possibility of multi-sensor fusion. From this study, we expect that a flexible multi-sensor platform system can be operated through the independent parameter estimation method with an economic cost saving.

With the popularization of drones and the ease of use of the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS), drone photogrammetry for terrain information has been widely used. Drone photogrammetry enables the realization of high-accuracy three-dimensional topography for the entire area with less effort and time compared to the past direct survey using GNSS or total station. From 3-D topographic data, various topographical analysis is possible. To improve the accuracy of drone photogrammetry, direct GCP surveying in the field is essential, and the numbers and reasonable positioning of GCPs are very important. In the case of beaches or tidal flats on the west coast of Korea, the numbers and location of GCPs are important factors in efficient drone photogrammetry because of the size of the area, difficulties of movement, and the risk from tides. If the RTK (Real-time kinematic) or PPK (Post-processed kinematic) method is used, the increased accuracy of the drone's location enables high-accuracy photogrammetry with a small number of GCPs. This study presents an efficient drone photogrammetry method in terms of time and economy by comparing and analyzing the results of drone photogrammetry using Non-PPK with low-cost PPK-Kit, based on the tests of various numbers and locations of GCPs in the university field including various slopes and structures like coastal terrain.

The Republic of Korea enacted the Air Transport Act in Commercial Law which was entered into force in November, 2011. The Air Transport Act in Korean Commercial Law was established to regulate domestic carriage by air and damages to the third party which occur within the territorial area caused by aircraft operations. There are some problems to be reformed in the Provisions of Korean Commercial Law for the aircraft operator's liability of compensation for damages to the third party caused by aircraft operation as follows. First, the aircraft operator's liability of compensation for damages needs to be improved because it is too low to compensate adequately to the third party damaged owing to the aircraft operation. Therefore, the standard of classifying per aircraft weight is required to be detailed from the current 4-tier into 10-tier and the total limited amount of liability is also in need of being increased to the maximum 7-hundred-million SDR. In addition, the limited amount of liability to the personal damage is necessary to be risen from the present 125,000 SDR to 625,000 SDR according to the recent rate of prices increase. This is the most desirable way to improve the current provisions given the ordinary insurance coverage per one aircraft accident and various specifications of recent aircraft in order to compensate the damaged appropriately. Second, the aircraft operator shall be liable without fault to damages caused by terrorism such as hijacking, attacking an aircraft and utilizing it as means of attack like the 9 11 disaster according to the present Air Transport Act in Korean Commercial Law. Some argue that it is too harsh to aircraft operators and irrational, but given they have also some legal duties of preventing terrorism and in respect of helping the third party damaged, it does not look too harsh or irrational. However, it should be amended into exempting aircraft operator's liability when the terrorism using of an aircraft by well-organized terrorists group happens like 9 11 disaster in view of balancing the interest between the aircraft operator and the third party damaged. Third, considering the large scale of the damage caused by the aircraft operation usually aircraft accident, it is likely that many people damaged can be faced with a financial crisis, and the provision of advance payment for air carrier's liability of compensation also needs to be applied to the case of aircraft operator's liability. Fourth, the aircraft operator now shall be liable to the damages which occur in land or water except air according to the current Air Transport Act of Korean Commercial Law. However, because the damages related to the aircraft operation in air caused by another aircraft operation are not different from those in land or water. Therefore, the term of 'on the surface' should be eliminated in the term of 'third parties on the surface' in order to make the damages by the aircraft operation in air caused by another aircraft operation compensable by Air Transport Act of Korean Commercial Law. It is desired that the Air Transport Act in Commercial Law including the clauses related to the aircraft operator's liability of compensation for damages to the third party be developed continually through the resolutions about its problems mentioned above for compensating the third party damaged appropriately and balancing the interest between the damaged and the aircraft operator.

In photogrammetry, GCPs (Ground Control Points) have traditionally been used to determine EOPs (Exterior Orientation Parameters) and to produce DEM (Digital Elevation Model). The existing DEM can be used as GCPs, where the observer’s approach is a difficult area, because it is very restrictive to survey in the field. For this, DEM matching should be performed. This study proposed the fusion method using ICP (Iterative Closest Point) and RT (proposed method by Rosenholm and Torlegard, 1988) in order to improve accuracy of the DEM matching. The proposed method was compared to the ICP method to evaluate its usefulness. Pseudo reference DEM with resolution 10m, and modified DEM (random-numbers are added from 0 to 2 at height; scale is 0.9; translation is 100 meters in 3-D axes; rotation is from 10° to 50° from the reference DEM) were used in the experiment. The results proposed accuracy was highest in the matching and absolute orientation. In the case of ICP, according to rotation of the modified DEM being increased, absolute orientation error is increased, while the proposed method generally showed consistent results without increasing the error. The proposed method would be applied to matching when the DEM is modified up to 30° rotation, compared to the reference DEM, based on the results of experiments. In addition when we use Drone, this method can be utilized to identify EOPs or detect 3-D surface deformation from the existing DEM of the inaccessible area.

In a situation where the amount of bulky waste needs to be quantified, a three-dimensional model of the wastes can be constructed using drones. This study constructed a drone-based 3D model with a range of flight parameters and a GCPs survey, analyzed the relationship between the accuracy and time required, and derived a suitable drone application technique to estimate the amount of waste in a short time. Images of waste were photographed using the drone and auto-matching was performed to produce a model using 3D coordinates. The accuracy of the 3D model was evaluated by RMSE calculations. An analysis of the time required and the characteristics of the top 15 models with high accuracy showed that the time required for Model 1, which had the highest accuracy with an RMSE of 0.08, was 954.87 min. The RMSE of the 10th 3D model, which required the shortest time (98.27 min), was 0.15, which is not significantly different from that of the model with the highest accuracy. The most efficient flight parameters were a high overlapping ratio at a flight altitude of 150 m (60-70% overlap and 30-40% sidelap) and the minimum number of GCPs required for image matching was 10.
