In this study, we propose an approach for calibrating the elevation of a DEM (Digital Elevation Model), one of the key data in realizing unmanned aerial vehicle image-based precision agriculture. First of all, radiometric correction is performed on the orthophoto, and then ExG (Excess Green) is generated. The non-vegetation area is extracted based on the threshold value estimated by applying the Otsu method to ExG. Subsequently, the elevation of the DEM corresponding to the location of the non-vegetation area is extracted as EIFs (Elevation Invariant Features), which is data for elevation correction. The normalized Z-score is estimated based on the difference between the extracted EIFs to eliminate the outliers. Then, by constructing a linear regression model and correcting the elevation of the DEM, high-quality DEM is produced without GCPs (Ground Control Points). To verify the proposed method using a total of 10 DEMs, the maximum/minimum value, average/standard deviation before and after elevation correction were compared and analyzed. In addition, as a result of estimating the RMSE (Root Mean Square Error) by selecting the checkpoints, an average RMSE was derivsed as 0.35m. Comprehensively, it was confirmed that a high-quality DEM could be produced without GCPs.

This study determines matching size for digital elevation model (DEM) production according to land cover property from IKONOS Geo-level stereo image. We applied area based matching method using correlation coefficient of pixel brightness value between the two images. After matching line (where "matching line" implies straight line that is approximated to complex non-linear epipolar geometry) is established by exterior orientation parameters to minimize search area, the matching is carried out based on this line. The experiment is performed according to land cover property, which is divided off into four areas (water, urban land, forest land and agricultural land). In each of the test areas, matching size is selected using a correlation-coefficient image and parallax image. As the results, optimum matching size of the images was selected as $81{\times}81$ pixels window, $21{\times}21$ pixels window, $119{\times}119$ pixels window and $51{\times}51$ pixels window in the water area, urban land, forest land and agricultural land, respectively.

Direct Georeferencing(DG) Is based on the direct measurement of the projection centers and rotation angle of sensor through loading the GPS and INS in aircraft. The methods can offer us to acquire the exterior orientation parameters with only minimum GCPs, even the ground control process could be completely skipped. Hence, as long as securing Digital Elevation Model (DEM), it is feasible to generate digital orthophotos without performing the aerial triangulation with Ground Control Point (GCP) surveying. In this study, the DEM is automatically generated by using a image matching technique based on aerial photos and exterior orientation parameters. This is followed by producing an orthophoto from these results. Finally, accuracy analysis of the georeferencing technique for generating orthoimage indicates that RMS errors of 62cm and 76cm occurred at the X and the Y axis, respectively. This means that the results fulfill the demanding accuracy of the 1:5000 digital map. Hence, it is possible to conclude from this study that the direct georeferencing based orthoimage generation method is able to effectively digital map update.

The technology for the multi-dimensional terrain perspective view can be used as an important factors in planning and designing for the various construction projects. In this study, the stereo image perspective view has been generated for the multi-dimension analysis by combining useful digital map and remotely sensed satellite images. In the course of experimenting with the multi-dimensional topography generated by the combination of the front-projected image by the precise GCP and DEM from the contour line, the technology has been developed to offer the multi-dimensional access to the potential construction sites from the nearby main roads. This stereo image bird's eye view has made it possible to make multi-dimensional analysis on the terrain, which provides real time virtual access to the designated construction sites and will be a versatile application for development planning and construction projects.

Airborne LiDAR integrated with on-board GPS/INS and scanning technology is a state-of the-art system for direct 3D geo-spatial data acquisition. In this study, LiDAR data were calibrated using ground points in calibration site for the higher system accuracy. The accuracy results are ${\pm}15{\sim}30\;cm$ in horizontal and ${\pm}15\;cm$ in vertical. The results show that LiDAR system has capability for precise DEM and contour generation, 3D urban modeling and engineering design.

In this study, an earth work design program which will improve the efficiency of earth work and enable to carry out the design using 3D Geospace-based earth work modelling in design stage was developed. Estimate of accurate earth work volume is achievable using 3D grid DEM, and based on this, a mass calculation chart was developed for movement of earth and equipment. In consideration for the resources for various construction equipments needed for civil engineering works, soil conversion and the passage is displayed. In addition, the result is restored in the form of open API-based KLM to make it possible for the users to identify the progress of the construction, thereby enhancing the intuitive understanding of three-dimensional visualization and making it easier to share the result of the analysis.

TerraSAR-X 자료를 이용하여 고해상 X-밴드 SAR 시스템을 이용한 조간대 적용 가능성을 시험하였다 연구대상지역은 강화도 남단과 영종도를 잇는 조간대이며, 단일편파자료와 이중편파자료를 이용하였다. 연구내용은 다음과 같은 세 가지로 분류된다. 첫째, X-밴드 영상에서의 연안의 레이더 반사도 특성 연구 및 waterline 추출 정밀도를 평가하였다. 연안지역의 wateline은 HH 편광자료의 레이더 반사도 특성을 통하여 추출하였을 때 가장 신뢰도가 높았으며, TerraSAR-X 시스템의 짧은 파장과 높은 제도정밀도로 인하여 정밀한 지리좌표로의 변환이 가능하였다 연구지역의 조간대 지형 경사도는 평균적으로 수평방향으로 60m당 20cm의 고도변화를 가지므로, TerraSAR-X HH 편광자료를 이용한 waterline 추출은 정밀한 조간대 DEM 추출로 응용될 수 있다. 둘째, 이중편파자료의 편파특성을 이용한 조간대 염생식물의 산란특성 관측하였다. 조간대에서 수륙의 경계부에서 잘 관측되는 칠면초와 같은 염생식물은 해수면변화에 따른 조간대의 육지화를 모니터링 하는데 좋은 표적이 된다. TerraSAR-X 이중편파자료의 산란특성을 이용한 염생식물 관측결과는 2007년에 현장에서 취득된 실측자료와 비교하여 3dB 이내의 정밀도로 일치하였다 셋째, 단일편파 자료의 레이더 간섭기법을 이용한 조간대 DEM 작성 시도하였다. 조간대 내에서 육지화가 진행된 지역은 표면에 염생식물이 발달하였음에도 불구하고 높은 간섭긴밀도를 나타내었다. 레이더 간섭기법을 통한 DEM의 제작은 일반적인 조간대에서는 적용이 제한적이며, TanDEN-X의 적용이 필요하다.

본 연구는 컬러항공사진을 이용하여 컬러영상, 그레이영상 그리고 각 밴드별(RGB) 수치고도모형(DEM)을 생성하여 정확도를 평가하기 위한 것이다. 항공 영상지도의 경우 불과 4-5년 전까지만 해도 흑백항공사진 필름을 이용해 왔으나 최근 들어 판독을 더욱 용이하게 하기 위하여 컬러항공사진을 많이 이용하고 있다. 품질이 높은 정사영상제작을 위해서는 정확한 수치고도모형이 필요하다. 수치고도모형을 생성하기 위한 대표적인 방법으로 수치지도를 이용하는 방법과 영상정합기법을 이용하여 수치고도모형을 생성할 수 있다. 영상정합기법에 의한 수치고도모형 생성 방법은 흑백항공사진에서와는 달리 컬러항공사진은 항공사진 전용 스캐너에서 3개의 밴드(RGB)로 스캔된 영상을 사용한다. 본 연구에서는 수치고도모형의 정확도를 분석하기 위하여 모두 5가지 영상(컬러영상, 그레이영상, Red 영상, Green 영상, Blue 영상)을 획득하였으며 각 밴드별 수치고도모형을 생성하여 수치지도에서 추출된 표고점 자료와의 평균제곱근오차(RMSE) 값을 비교하였다. 본 연구에서는 Red 영상을 이용하는 경우 가장 정확한 수치고도모형을 얻을 수 있었음을 실험을 통해 검증하였다.
