The purposes of this study are to consider the influence of topography resolution on atmospheric flow simulation and to suggest a method of atmospheric flow simulation using a low-resolution DEM. Simulations using a low-resolution DEM has more critical error at near surface than simulations using high-resolution DEM because it is ignored the small curve topography of high-resolution DEM. Therefore when we convert the height differences between low-resolution DEM and high-resolution DEM into the topography roughness, we can be able to reduce the error on atmospheric flow simulations.

Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) model have been widely used in simulating hydrology and water quality analysis at watershed scale. The SWAT model extracts topographic feature using the Digital Elevation Model (DEM) for hydrology and pollutant generation and transportation within watershed. Use of various DEM cell size in the SWAT leads to different results in extracting topographic feature for each subwatershed. So, it is recommended that model users use very detailed spatial resolution DEM for accurate hydrology analysis and water quality simulation. However, use of high resolution DEM is sometimes difficult to obtain and not efficient because of computer processing capacity and model execution time. Thus, the SWAT Topographic Feature Extraction Error (STOPFEE) Fix module, which can extract topographic feature of high resolution DEM from low resolution and updates SWAT topographic feature automatically, was developed and evaluated in this study. The analysis of average slope vs. DEM cell size revealed that average slope of watershed increases with decrease in DEM cell size, finer resolution of DEM. This falsification of topographic feature with low resolution DEM affects soil erosion and sediment behaviors in the watershed. The annual average sediment for Soyanggang-dam watershed with DEM cell size of 20 m was compared with DEM cell size of 100 m. There was 83.8% difference in simulated sediment without STOPFEE module and 4.4% difference with STOPFEE module applied although the same model input data were used in SWAT run. For Imha-dam watershed, there was 43.4% differences without STOPFEE module and 0.3% difference with STOPFEE module. Thus, the STOPFEE topographic database for Soyanggang-dam watershed was applied for Chungju-dam watershed because its topographic features are similar to Soyanggang-dam watershed. Without the STOPFEE module, there was 98.7% difference in simulated sediment for Chungju-dam watershed for DEM cell size of both 20 m and 100 m. However there was 20.7% difference in simulated sediment with STOPFEE topographic database for Soyanggang-dam watershed. The application results of STOPFEE for three watersheds showed that the STOPFEE module developed in this study is an effective tool to extract topographic feature of high resolution DEM from low resolution DEM. With the STOPFEE module, low-capacity computer can be also used for accurate hydrology and sediment modeling for bigger size watershed with the SWAT. It is deemed that the STOPFEE module database needs to be extended for various watersheds in Korea for wide application and accurate SWAT runs with lower resolution DEM.

Interferometry SAR (InSAR) is a technique to generate topographic map from complex data pairs observed by antennas at different locations. However, to obtain topographic information using InSAR is difficult task because it requires series of complicated process including phase unwrapping and precise recovery of the SAR geometry. Especially, accuracy of the DEM (Digital Elevation Model) produced by repeat pass single SAR pair could be influenced by atmospheric effect. Recently, a new InSAR technique to improve accuracy of DEM has been introduced that utilizes low resolution DEM with a number of SAR image pairs. The coarse DEM plays an important role in reducing phase unwrapping error caused by layover and satellite orbit error. In this study, we implemented DInSAR (Differential InSAR) method which combines low resolution DEMs and ERS tandem pair images. GTOPO30 DEM with 1km resolution, SRTM-3 DEM with 100m resolution, and DEM with 10m resolution derived from 1:25,000 digital vector map were used to investigate feasibility of DInSAR. The accuracy of the DEMs generated both by InSAR and DInSAR was evaluated.

Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) have been used to represent the effects of topography on soil erosion. A DEM of 30 m resolution is frequently used in hydrology and soil erosion studies because the National Water Management Information System (WAMIS) provides a 30 m resolution DEM at national scale on its web site. However, the Ministry of Environment recommends the use of a DEM with 10 m resolution for evaluation of soil erosion due to the fact that soil erosion estimation is to some degree affected by the spatial resolution of DEM. In this regard, a DEM with 5 m resolution was resampled for 10 × 10 m, 20 × 20 m, 30 × 30 m, 50 × 50 m, 70 × 70 m, and 100 × 100 m resolutions, respectively. USLE LS factors and soil erosion values were evaluated using these datasets. Use of a DEM with at least 30 m resolution provided reasonable LS factors and soil erosion values at a watershed.

In this study, the effect of DEM (Digital Elevation Model) resolution (15m, 30m, 50m, 70m, 100m, 200m, 300m) on the hydrological simulation was examined using the BASINS (Better Assessment Science Integrating point and Nonpoint Source) for the Heukcheon watershed (303.3 ㎢) data from 1998 to 1999. Generally, as the cell size of DEM increased, topographical changes were observed as the original range of elevation decreased. The processing time of watershed delineation and river network needed more time and effort on smaller cell size of DEM. The larger DEM demonstrated had some errors in the junction of river network which might affect on the simulation of water quantity and quality. The area weighted average watershed slope became milder but the length weighted average channel slope became steeper as the DEM size increased. DEM resolution affected substantially on the topographical parameter but less on the hydrological simulation. Considering processing time and accuracy on hydrological simulation, DEM grid size of 100m is recommended for this range of watershed size.

ERS-1/9 및 JERS-1 SAR 영상의 레이더 영상 간섭기법을 이용하여 대전지역의 수치고도모델 (DEM)을 제작하였다 도심지역에서는 GPS 측량으로부터 추출된 지상기준점(GCP)를 이용하여 생성된 DEM의 정밀도를 분석하였고, GCP가 없는 산악지 역에서는 1:25,000 수치지도로부터 추출된 DEM과의 상대적 고도차를 이용하여 정확도를 평가하였다 위성의 궤도오차 및 phase unwrapping에 의한 고도 오차를 최소화하기 위해 DEM생성에 이용되는 전통적인 InSAR기법 외에 DInSAR기법을 추가로 적용하였다. 또한 DInSAR기법 적용시 사용된 DEM의 해상도에 따른 결과의 정밀도를 분석하기 위해 GTOPO30, SRTM-3, 그리고 1:25,000 수치지도로부터 생성된 DEM을 사용하였다. 하나의 ERS tandem 간섭쌍과, 6개의 JERS-1 간섭쌍 분석 결과, 위상간섭기법 적용 시 평지 지역에서의 정밀도는 DEM 사용 여부 및 사용된 DEM의 해상도에 무관하게 약 5-6 m의 고도오차를 보인다 반면 산악지역에서는 SRTM-3 및 1:25,000 수치지도 DED을 이용한 DInSAR 기법이 phase unwrapping에 의한 오차를 줄이는데 매우 효과적이었다. 또한 6 개의 JERS-1 간섭쌍의 중첩을 통해 제작한 DEM의 경우 레이더 영상의 낮은 신호대잡음비 및 대기에 의한 오차를 줄일 수 있었다. 다수의 SAR 간섭쌍과 저해상도 DEM을 이용한 위상간섭기법은 저비용으로 빠른 시간 내에 DEM 해상도를 향상하는데 매우 효과적인 수단으로 사용될 수 있다.

본 연구에서는 한국과학기술원 인공위성연구센터에서 개발한 DEM생성 알고리즘을 다양한 해상도의 위성영상에 적용하여 도심지역의 DEM생성결과를 살펴보고자 한다. 실험에 사용한 위성 영상은 10m해상도의 SPOT영상과, 6.6m해상도를 가지는 EOC영상, 1m해상도를 가지는 IKONOS위성영상이며 모든 위성영상에는 대전광역시의 도심지역이 포함되어 있다. 모든 위성영상에 대해 궤도정보 없이도 카메라 모델이 수립되는 Gupta와 Harteley(1997)가 제안한 DLT모델을 사용하였다. EOC DEM과 SPOT DEM정확도 검증은 USGS DTED를 사용하였으며, IKONOS DEM의 정확도는 DGPS측량을 수행한 23개의 검증점(check points)를 사용하여 정확도를 비교하였다. 그 결과 SPOT 위성영상으로부터 얻은 DEM은 약 38m RMS오차를 갖고 EOC DEM은 약 12m RMS오차를 보였다. 이 수치는 위성영상의 해상도를 고려하면 약 2∼4픽셀에 해당하는 오차이다. IKONOS DEM의 정확도는 약 6.5m RMS오차를 보였으며 해상도를 고려하면 약 6∼7픽셀의 오차를 가지고 있다. 이는 SPOT DEM과 EOC DEM보다 다소 높은 수치나 IKONOS DEM은 SPOT, EOC DEM과 달리 도심지역의 건물을 육안으로 구분할 수 있을 정도의 DEM을 생성하고 있다. 그러나 높이 불연속과 건물의 그림자 등에 의해 오정합이 발생하고 있어 향후 높이 불연속과 그림자의 영향을 최소화하는 알고리즘 개발이 필요하다.

The accuracy of digital elevation models (DEMs) is crucial for properly estimating flood inundation area. DEM pixel size is especially important when generating flood inundation maps of small streams with a channel width of less than 50 m. In Korea, DEMs with large spatial resolutions of 30 m have been widely applied to generate flood inundation maps, even for small streams. Additionally, when making river master plans, field observations of stream cross-sections, as well as reference points in the middle of the river, have not previously been used to enhance the DEM. In this study, it was graphically demonstrated that high-resolution DEMs can increase the accuracy of flood inundation mapping, especially for small streams. Also, a methodology was proposed to modify the existing low-resolution DEMs by adding additional survey reference points, including river cross-sections, and interpolating them into a high spatial resolution DEM using the inverse distance weighting method. For verification purposes, the modified DEM was applied to Han stream on Jeju Island. The modified DEM showed much better accuracy when describing morphological features near the stream. Moreover, the flood inundation maps were formulated with the original 30 m pixel DEM and the modified 0.1 m pixel DEM using HEC-RAS modeling of the actual flood event of Typhoon Nari, and then compared with the flood history map of Nari. The results clearly indicated that the modified DEM generated a similar inundation area, but a very poor estimate of inundation area was derived from the original low-resolution DEM.

SAR는 기상상태와 태양고도 제약을 받지 않고 영상을 취득할 수 있는 장점을 갖지만 측면 관측 촬영방식으로 인해 고도에 의한 왜곡이 발생하여 광학영상과의 통합적 활용을 위해서는 지형 보정 작업이 필수적이다. 일반적으로 SAR 영상의 지형보정은 대상지역의 수치표고모델(Digital Elevation Model, DEM)을 사용하여 수행되기 때문에 DEM 품질이 지형보정 정확도에 미치는 영향에 대한 평가가 이루어져야 한다. 이를 위해 본 연구에서는 1:5000 수치지도로부터 제작한 DEM, LiDAR DEM, ASTER GDEM, SRTM DEM을 비교 분석하여 고해상도 SAR 영상의 지형보정에 적합한 DEM을 탐색하였다. 실험데이터로는 KOMPSAT-5호와 동일한 고해상도 X-band SAR 시스템을 장착한 TerraSAR-X와 Cosmo-SkyMed 영상을 사용하였다. 지형보정 결과 평가를 위해 동일지역의 KOMPSAT-2 정사영상과의 정량적 비교평가를 수행하였다. 실험결과 수치지도로 제작한 DEM이 가장 정확한 지형보정 결과를 보였으며 현업에서 가장 많이 활용되고 있는 SRTM DEM의 경우 고해상도 SAR 영상의 지형보정에는 부적합 하였다.
