Satellite remote sensing technology for ocean observation has evolved considerably in these last twenty years. Ocean color is one of the most important parameters of ocean satellite measurements. This paper describes a remote sensing of ocean color data project - Asian I-Lac Project; it also introduces several case studies using satellite images in the Asian waters. The Asian waters are related to about 30 Asian countries, representing about 60% of the world population. The project aims at generating long-term time series images (planned for 10 years from 1996 to 2006) by combining several ocean color satellite data, i.e., ADEOS-I OCTS and SeaWiFS, and some other sensors. Some typical parameters that could be measured include Chlorophyll- a (Chl-a), Colored Dissolved Organic Matter (CDOM), and Suspended Material (SSM). Reprocessed OCTS images display spatial variation of Chl-a, CDOM, and SSM in the Asian waters; a short term variability of phytoplankton blooms was observed in the Gulf of Oman in November 1996 by analyzing OCTS and NOAA sea surface temperature (SST)； Chl-a concentrations derived from OCTS and SeaWiFS have also been evaluated in coastal areas of the Taiwan Strait, the Gulf of Thailand, the northeast Arabian Sea, and the Japan Sea. The data system provides scientists with capability of testing or developing ocean color algorithms, and transferring images for their research. We have also analyzed availability of OCTS images. The results demonstrate the potential of long-term time series of satellite ocean color data for research in marine biology, and ocean studies. The case studies show multiple applications of satellite images on monitoring of coastal environments in the Asian Waters.

The image data amount is increasing rapidly that used geography, sea information etc. with great development of a remote sensing technology using artificial satellite. Therefore, people need automatic method that use image processing description than macrography for analysis remote sensing image. In this paper, we propose that acquire texture information to use GLCM(Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix) in red tide area of artificial satellite remote sensing image, and detects red tide area by PCA(principal component analysis) automatically from this data. Method by sea color that one feature of remote sensing image of existent red tide area detection was most. but in this paper, we changed into 2 principal component accumulation images using GLCM's texture feature information 8. Experiment result, 2 principal component accumulation image's variance percentage is 90.4%. We compared with red tide area that use only sea color and It is better result.

The IMAPRO sotfware package was mainly focused to provide an algorithm which is capable of displaying various color composite images on IBM PC, VGA(Video Graphic Array) card with no special hardware. It displays the false color images using a low-cost eight-bit place refresh buffer. This produces similar quality to the one obtained from image board with three eight-bit plane. Also, it provides user friendly menu driven method for the user who are not familier with technical knowladge of image processing. It may prove useful for universities, institute and private company where expensive hardware is not available.

Retrieval of ocean color information from Multispectral Camera (MSC) on KOMPSAT-2 was investigated to study and characterize small-scale biophysical features in the coastal oceans. Prior to the derivation of such information from space-acquired ocean color imageries, the atmospheric effects largely from path and the air-sea interface should be removed from the total signal recorded at the top of the atmosphere (T$_{TOA}$). In this study, the 'path-extraction' is introduced and demonstrated on the TM and SeaWiFS imageries of highly turbid coastal waters of Korea. The algorithms for retrieval of ocean color information were explored from the remote reflectance (R$_{rs}$) in the visible wavebands of MSC. The determination of coefficient (R$^{2}$) for log-transformed data [ N = 500] was 0.90. Similarly, the R$^{2}$ value for log-transformed data [ N = 500] was found to be 0.93.

Observations were made to validate ocean color algorithms in the Ulleung Basin, East Sea in May 2000. Small scale and meso-scale surveys were conducted for the validation of ocean color products (nLw: normalized water-leaving radiance and chlorophyll concentration). There were discrepancies between SeaWiFS and in situ nLw showing the current aerosol models of standard SeaWiFS processing software are less than adequate (Gordon and Wang, 1994). Applying the standard SeaWiFS in-water algorithm resulted in an overestimation of chlorophyll concentration. This is because that CDOM absorption was higher than the estimated chlorophyll absorption. TSS concentration was also high. Therefore, the study region deviated from Case 1 waters. The source of these materials seems to be the entrainment of coastal water by the Tsushima Warm Current. Study of the bio-optical properties in other season is desirable.

Many ocean color sensors are being operated at present and will be continued to operatein the coming years. However, these ocean color sensors have different spectral bands locations and higher level product algorithms. Thus the continuity of ocean color data from the satellite with different missions will be important for monitoring of oceanographic variation with long term research. In this study, CZCS band and algorithm are compared with OCTS and SeaWiFS algorithm for estimating chlorophyll. Missing bands of OCTS and CZCS for chlorophyll algorithm are estimated by linear-interpolation using SeaWiFS data. We were able to evaluate the effectiveness of the correction methods using linear interpolation method. Surprisingly, linear interpolation gave a better result than those of other bands.

The objective of this paper is to provide an automatic color image testing system capable of synthetically testing a color element like a color tone and a luminance for a color image displayed on the screen, using a CCD camera and a microprocess. The system consists of a CCD camera, a line conveyor, a camera driving part, a remocon, a remote sensing part, a display and a PC including a color vision board and a CPU board. By applying the system to a process, reliability for a testing result can be improved and the absolute criterion to judge a part can be made.

Ocean color remote sensing community currently uses the different solar irradiance spectra covering the visible and near-infrared in the calibration/validation and deriving products of ocean color instruments. These spectra derived from single and / or multiple measurements sets or models have significant discrepancies, primarily due to variation of the solar activity and uncertainties in the measurements from various instruments and their different calibration standards. Thus, it is prudent to examine model-to-model differences and select a standard reference spectrum that can be adopted in the future calibration and validation processes, particularly of the first Geostationary Ocean Color Imager (GOCI) onboard its Communication Ocean and Meterological Satellite (COMS) planned to be launched in 2008. From an exhaustive survey that reveals a variety of solar spectra in the literature, only eight spectra are considered here seeing as reference in many remote sensing applications. Several criteria are designed to define the reference spectrum: i.e., minimum spectral range of 350-1200nm, based completely or mostly on direct measurements, possible update of data and less errors. A careful analysis of these spectra reveals that the Thuillier 2004 spectrum seems to be very identical compared to other spectra, primarily because it represents very high spectral resolution and the current state of the art in solar irradiance spectra of exceptionally low uncertainty ${\sim}0.1%.$ This study also suggests use of the Gueymard 2004 spectrum as an alternative for applications of multispectral/multipurpose satellite sensors covering the terrestrial regions of interest, where it provides spectral converge beyond 2400nm of the Thuillier 2004 spectrum. Since the solar-activity induced spectral variation is about less than 0.1% and a large portion of this variability occurs particularly in the ultraviolet portion of the electromagnetic spectrum that is the region of less interest for the ocean color community, we disregard considering this variability in the analysis of solar irradiance spectra, although determine the solar constant 1366.1 $Wm^{-2}$ to be proposed for an improved approximation of the extraterrestrial solar spectrum in the visible and NIR region.

Much effort has been made in the radiometric calibration of the ocean scanning multispectral imager (OSMI) since after the successful launch of KOMPSAT-1 in 1999. A series of calibration coefficients for OSMI detectors were obtained in collaboration with the NASA Sensor Intercomparison and Merger for Biological and Interdisciplinary (SIMBIOS) project office. In this study, we compare the OSMI level-2 products (e.g., chlorophyll-a concentration) calculated from the NASA cross-calibration coefficients with the SeaWiFS counterparts. Sample study areas are some of diagonostic data sites recommended by the SIMBIOS working group. We will present the preliminary results of this comparative study.

In order to detect gas phase strong acid on fabrics, a hexyl-substituted monoazo yellow dye, which was the modified form of a conventional pH-indicating dye, Methyl Yellow, was studied in view of acid-gas sensing properties and its fastness. The dye was printed on polypropylene non-wovens for protective coveralls and examined under various conditions of strong acid such as hydrochloric acid. The dye showed color change from yellow to red on exposure to gas phase hydrochloric acid as low concentration as 1~3 ppm very instantly. Considering reuse of the dye-printed non-wovens, the repeatability of color change was tested on the same sample for 50 repeats and 100 days. The acid-gas sensing function was maintained almost the same level of initial performance. The color fastness of the dye on polypropylene non-wovens was very good showing higher than ratings 4 except for 3~4 to rubbing under wet condition.
