To date the KOMPSAT OSMI(Ocean Scanning Multi-spectral Imager) data have been widely used in natural disaster monitoring such as Typhoon, Asian Dust, Red Tide, and Forest Fire. Quantitative analyses related to the marine ecosystem have been delayed because they require good quality of data through Cal/Val activities. To resolve such problem, KARI performed the OSMI crosscalibration study with SeaWiFS team. In this study, we will demonstrate the OSMI ocean color products with updated cross-calibration coefficients and compare them to the previous cross-calibration results.

We developed a system that can collect and transmit real-time environmental data such as temperature, humidity, wind direction, and wind speed, and equipment performing aging tests on fire detectors. This system was installed in three representative sites of railway tunnels in South Korea such as Gumjung, Solan, Seoul Subway Line 4 tunnels. The systems showed a stable performance and collected environmental data for over a year. We analyzed environmental data collected by two of our developed systems installed in the running tunnels of Gwacheon Line of Seoul Subway Line 4. The developed system was capable of safely analyzing tunnel environments for 24 h straight using a wireless communication network, and has potential for use in a variety of fields other than tunnels.

Radio base stations, which are widely distributed across large areas, have many difficulties in managing them. Unmanned radio base stations in remote mountains are having a hard time accessing them in case of emergencies. Major telephone service providers only remotely control incoming and outgoing information and local small business partners responsible for maintaining actual facilities do not possess such technologies, so they are each checked during field visits. In this study, in order to monitor temperature, humidity, fire condition, and power operation at a wide range of radio base stations, real-time monitoring is carried out at the office of Klaus server through real-time monitoring.

Test and launch facilities which use oxygen as the propellant of a launch vehicle have hazards of fire and explosion by the leakage of oxygen. Also, the personnel operating the facilities, which use the high-pressured gases like nitrogen and helium in the closed room, is exposed to the hazard of death from suffocation. Consequently, we should keep out of the hazards and the accidents by monitoring the contents of oxygen in the air. The method and the system construction for monitoring oxygen contents in the air and the results from its application to Naro space center are described on this paper.

USN technology will be applied to various fields such as logistics, transportation, government, health, welfare and environment and will be settled down by basic infrastructure of a future society. In this study, we analyzed sensor networks structure based on IEEE 802.15.4 and implemented the sensor monitoring system using Zigbee modules. For implementation of real-time sensor monitoring system, we designed Linux-based development environment and the sensor-specific component. The result of this paper may be utilized in such areas lighting system, intrusion detection, fire detection, detection and notification of abnormal conditions.

Most of the urban transit operation company in Korea have a passive surveillance system to monitor the status of the passengers and facilities in the urban transit service area. The surveillance system is based on CCTV, closed circuit television, and several sensors, such as a fire sensor. However, this system has some limitations to prevent and cope with the emergency quickly. So the urban transit operation companies have plans to be change their surveillance system to be active. The active surveillance system has an intelligent function to detect the event predefined by managers automatically. To construct the active surveillance system, there are a standard concept design and a function analysis. In this paper, we propose the classification of the functions of the active surveillance system for urban transit. We divide the functions into five parts, ordinary monitoring, safety monitoring, environment monitoring, administration support, and record management. And we describe the systems related to the every functions to clarify the classified functions.

The major source of carbon monoxide (CO) at the Earth's surface is the incomplete combustion of biomass and fossil fuels. Because the global lifetime of CO is about two months, it can be used as a tracer for pollution from anthropogenic activities and biomass hurtling. In this paper, we introduced the principle and algorithm of the Measurement of Pollution in the Troposphere (MOPITT) instrument for global CO monitoring. The MOPITT instrument, which was launched on the Satellite Terra in 1999, measures CO column and mixing ratio based on gas correlation radiometry. CO levels can be determined by a retrieval algorithm based on the maximum likelihood method minimizing the difference between observed and modeled radiances. MOPITT level 2 data (HDF format) can be downloaded through the Earth Observing System (EOS) data gateway of NASA. ASCII files of CO parameters can be extracted from HDF files, and then temporal and spatial distributions can be obtained. Finally, we showed an example of CO monitoring in April 2000. The locations of forest fires and distribution of MOPITT CO clearly indicated that not only anthropogenic emissions but also forest fires play an important role in CO levels and global CO distribution. Our introduction to MOPITT and the example of MOPITT data interpretation would be helpful for scientists who want to use the EOS data.

A subway or an underground railway is one of the representative public transportations which lots of people take everyday. Then, subway station, which is also one of the very important public civil infrastructures, generally services for a long period of time. During the service time of stations, they are easily damaged from environmental corrosion, material aging, fatigue, and the coupling effects with long-term loads and extreme loads. Recently, civil construction work on the places near station often creates lots of damages to the station. As these damages accumulate, the performance of station degenerates due to the above factors. They would inevitably reduce the resisting capacity of station against the disaster; even they bring into the collapse of stations with the structural failure under long-term loads and extreme loads. And, if disaster such as earthquake, fire, etc. happens, it causes huge property damage and threatens the human lives. Because of these above reasons, the structural health monitoring system need to be developed for ensuring the safety of station. In this paper, the development directions of the structural health monitoring system with fiber optic sensor and USN for subway station are briefly described.

Remotely sensed data provide valuable information on land monitoring due to multi-temporal observation over large areas. Especially, high resolution imagery with 0.6~1.0 m spatial resolutions contain a wealth of information and therefore are very useful for thematic mapping and monitoring change in urban areas. Recently, remote sensing technology has been successfully utilized for natural disaster monitoring such as forest fire, earthquake, and floods. In this paper, an efficient change detection method based on texture differences observed from high resolution multi-temporal data sets is proposed for mapping disaster damage and extracting damage information. It is composed of two parts: feature extraction and detection process. Timely and accurate information on disaster damage can provide an effective decision making and response related to damage.
