As an attempt to apply GPS technique to aerial photogrammetry, an effort is exerted to replace the ground control points that were necessary in the traditional aerial photogrammetry with the aerial control by measuring the position of the camera exposure. In this study, various situations are simulated to test the conditions that affect the positioning of the points in aerial photogrammetry for the use of GPS data. From the result of the simulations, the necessary conditions and the applicable values to produce a 1:1, 000 topographical map were suggested. In the case of a photo block consists of 104 photos, we found a minimum of six ground control points make acceptable accuracy under the condition of below $10\mu{m}$ image positional error and with the ground observations.

This study aims to develop the system which is able to monitor long span bridge behavior in real time using GPS. Through measuring displacement of long span bridge by GPS in real time, over all 3D behavior of bridge could be analyzed and managed. Monitoring system of long span bridge which is developed in this study is able to manage in real time the safety of bridge by transmitting horizontal and vertical displacement of bridge, and danger signals to an integrated operations center. Also it is able to monitor the absolute behavior of long span bridge by GPS, and to construct a national bridge safety management networks.

This paper has focused on deriving a GPS based geodetic network adjustment strategy to continuously determine coordinate sets of the national geodetic control points. After domestic literature review on the topic and overseas case studies about countries that recently reformed their geodetic infrastructure have been carried out, a simplified geodetic network consisting of two layers, namely GPS active and passive network, has been proposed to maximize effectiveness of the network adjustment through reducing the number of the passive points. Furthermore, a GPS data processing and network adjustment procedure has been derived to support the continuous management scheme. While a scheme for the active layer adopts a sequential least squares adjustment based on a multi-baseline, that of the passive layer employs a multi-session adjustment technique with respect to 3-dimensional baseline vectors. Finally, experimental adjustment against a network comprising 24 active and 6,900 passive stations has been performed to demonstrate the efficiency and the effectiveness of the proposed method.

This paper describes an accuracy analysis of newly developed gravimetric geoid and an improvement of developed geoid using GPS/Levelling data. We developed the KGEOID05 model corrected with the correction term. The correction term is modelled using the difference between GPS/Levelling derived geoidal heights and gravimetric geoidal heights. The stochastic model used in the calculation of correction term is the least squares collocation technique based on second-order Markov covariance function. 373 GPS stations were used to model the correction term. The standard deviation of KGEOID05 is about 11 cm and it indicates that we can be determined accurate heights ($2{\sim}3\;cm$) when we made precise modelling using KGEOID05 and a few GPS measurements for the local area.

Such social structures as bridges,, buildings, dams and towers have been transformed by their own load or fundamental ground. They have been behaved by other external causes. These regular or irregular behaviors threaten to do their users safety. Therefore, to monitor the load of the structures or reaction shown by them could help to verify their behaviors. RTK GPS allows the use of a static base station and remote rover unit to allow f3r data collection within several seconds and in real time. It is useful for monitoring the behaviors of massive structures like bridges. In this Study, Among GPS methods, we used RTK GPS to analyze the precision of monitoring and then on the basis of it, we developed a monitoring system using RTK GPS when measured the behavior of main tower of a suspension bridge by using RTK GPS. Comparing a deviation between observation values, X axis was Imm, Y axis was 1mm and Z axis 2.2mm. It turned out that it was possible to monitor and measure structures by RTK GPS.

In this study, GPS surveying at bench marks in Cheju Island and with these data, calculate GPS/Levelling geoid in Cheju area. And compare this geoid with PNU95 Geoid. The results are as follows : 1. The ellipsoidal height of each bench mark was measured ${\pm}3cm$ with accuracy in GPS surveying. 2. Calculated CPS/Levelling Geoid well represents the variations of Cheju terrain. The correlation formula between the geoid and elevation above sea level in Cheju area is as fellow : $$N\;=\;0.001082\;{\times}\;h\;+\;25.458\;{\pm}\;0.227\;s.d.$$ 3. Calculated GPS/Levelling Geoid and PNU95 Geoid are welt fitted and the RMS difference between the two Geoids is 0.14 m.

Signals from the Global Positioning System(GPS) satellite are used to retrieve the integrated amount of water vapor or the precipitable water vapor(PWV) along the path between a transmitting satellite and ground-based receiver. In order to retrieve the PWV from GPS signal delay in the troposphere, the actual zenith wet delay, which can be derived by extracting the zenith total delay and subtracting the actual zenith hydrostatic delay computed using surface pressure observing, will be needed. Since it has been not co-located between GPS permanent station and automated weather station, the air-pressure on the mean sea level has been used to determine the actual zenith hydrostatic delay. The directly use of this air-pressure has been caused the dilution of precision on GPS PWV retrieval. In this study, Korean reverse sea level correction method of air-pressure was suggested for the improving of GPS PWV retrieval capability and the accuracy of water vapor estimated by GPS was evaluated through a comparison with radiosonde PWV.

National Geographic Information Institute has installed the first permanent Global Positioning System (GPS) station SUWN in 1995 and, as of today, the number of sites is 14. In this study, we visited all the 14 stations and determined if the site mount and antenna configuration conforms to the international site guidelines published by International GNSS Service and National Geodetic Survey. The environment around each station was also checked for the possibility of causing positioning errors. In addition, the GPS data quality was evaluated using the quality-checking program called TEQC. As a result of site visits, we found that low stations (TABK, CHJU, KWNJ, and WNJU) have unfavorable environment and TEQC results validated it. TEQC results also showed that the GPS receiver change during years 2005-2006 reduced the multipath errors and the number of cycle slips at every station.

Precise stochastic modeling for GPS measurements is one of key factors in adjustment computations for GPS positioning. To analyze the GPS measurement errors, Minimum Norm Quadratic Unbiased Estimators(MINQUE) approach is used in this study to estimate the variance components for measurement types with short-baseline GPS positioning model. The results showed the magnitudes of measurement errors for C1, P2, L1, L2 are 22.3cm, 27.6cm, 2.5mm, 2.2mm, respectively. To reduce the memory usage and computational burden, variance components are also estimated on epoch-by-epoch basis. The results showed that there exists slight differences between the solutions. However, epoch-by-epoch analysis may also be used for most of GPS applications considering the magnitudes of the differences.
