Sonar bearing accuracy is the correspondence between the target orientation predicted by sonar and actual target orientation, and is obtained from measurements. However, when measuring sonar bearing accuracy, many errors are included in the results because they are made at sea, where complex and diverse environmental factors are applied. In particular, parallax error caused by the difference between the position of the GPS receiver and the sonar sensor, and the time delay error generated between the speed of underwater sound waves and the speed of electromagnetic waves in the air have a great influence on the accuracy. Correcting these parallax errors and time delay errors without an automated tool is a laborious task. Therefore, in this study, we propose a sonar bearing accuracy measurement equipment with parallax error and time delay error correction. The tests were carried out through simulation data and real data. As a result of the test it was confirmed that the parallax error and time delay error were systematically corrected so that 51.7% for simulation data and more than 18.5% for real data. The proposed method is expected to improve the efficiency and accuracy of sonar system detection performance verification in the future.

Soluble nitrogen produced from anaerobic digestor is able to have a strong influence on the effluent water quality of municipal wastewater treatment plants during a winter season in particular. The modeling results using the GPS-X simulation software shows that the soluble nitrogen concentration generated from the anaerobic digestor is 214.1 mg/L in the return flow and 6.2 mg/L in the inflow of the primary settler higher than those in nonexistence of the anaerobic digestor, respectively. In the case of using a separation process (flotation thickener) in order to treat the return flow from the sludge treatment system, the soluble nitrogen concentration in the effluent from the separation process and in the inflow of the primary setter could be 6.0 mg/L higher and 0.7 mg/L lower than those of nonexistence of the process, respectively. The modeling results propose the need of the equipments to be able to remove the soluble nitrogen ($NH_3-N$) produced from the digestor in the improvement projects of anaerobic digestor in municipal wastewater treatment plants.

This paper suggests an algorithm that improves the disadvantages of the Dijkstra algorithm that is commonly used in GPS navigation system, searching for the shortest path. Dijkstra algorithm, first of all, requires much memory for the performance of the algorithm. It has to carry out number of node minus 1, since it determines the shortest path from all the nodes in the graph, starting from the first node. Therefore, Dijkstra algorithm might not be able to provide the information on every second, searching for the shortest path between the roads of the congested city and the destination. In order to solve these problems, this paper chooses a method of searching a number of nodes at once by means of choosing the shortest path of all the path nodes (select of minimum weight arc in-degree and out-degree), excluding the departure and destination nodes, and of choosing all the arcs that coincide with the shortest path of the path nodes, from all the node outgoing arcs starting from the departure node. On applying the suggested algorithm to 14 various digraphs, we succeeded to search the shortest path. In addition, the result was obtained at the speed of 2 to 3 times faster than that of Dijkstra algorithm, and the memory required was less than that of Dijkstra algorithm.

Twitter has the fast propagation and diffusion of information compare to other SNS. Therefore, many researches about detecting real-time event using twitter are progressing. Twitter real-time event detecting system assumes every twitter user as a sensor and analyzes their written tweet in order to detect the event. Researches that are related to this twitter have already obtained good results but confronted the limits because of some problems. Especially, many existing researches are using the method that can trace an event location by using GPS coordinate. However, it can be suggested a definite limitation through the present user's skeptical responses about making personal location information public. Therefore, this paper suggests the method that traces the location information in tweet contents text without using the provided location information from twitter. Associated words were grouped by using the keyword that extracted in tweet contents text. The place that the events have occurred and whether the events have surely occurred are detected by this experiment using this algorithm. Furthermore, this experiment demonstrated the necessity of the suggested methods by showing faster detection compare to the other existing media.

Point-by-point data, which is abundantly collected by vehicles with embedded GPS (Global Positioning System), generate useful information. These data facilitate decisions by transportation jurisdictions, and private vendors can monitor and investigate micro-scale driver behavior, traffic flow, and roadway movements. The information is applied to develop app-based route guidance and business models. Of these, speed data play a vital role in developing key parameters and applying agent-based information and services. Nevertheless, link speed values require different levels of physical storage and fidelity, depending on both collecting and reporting intervals. Given these circumstances, this study aimed to establish an appropriate collection interval to efficiently utilize Space Mean Speed information by vehicles with embedded GPS. We conducted a comparison of Probe-vehicle data and Image-based vehicle data to understand PE(Percentage Error). According to the study results, the PE of the Probe-vehicle data showed a 95% confidence level within an 8-second interval, which was chosen as the appropriate collection interval for Probe-vehicle data. It is our hope that the developed guidelines facilitate C-ITS, and autonomous driving service providers will use more reliable Space Mean Speed data to develop better related C-ITS and autonomous driving services.

The KOrea Multi-Purpose SATellite(KOMPSAT)-2 has a capability to provide a cross-track stereo imagery using two different orbits for generating various spatial information. However, in order to fully realize the potential of the KOMPSAT-2 stereo imagery in terms of mapping, various tests are necessary. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the possibility of mapping using the KOMPSAT-2 stereo imagery. For this, digital plotting was conducted based on the stereoscopic images. Also the Digital Elevation Model(DEM) and an ortho-image were generated using digital plotting results. An accuracy of digital plotting, DEM, and ortho-image were evaluated by comparing with the existing data. Consequently, we found that horizontal and vertical error of the modeling results based on the Rational Polynomial Coefficient(RPC) was less than 1.5 meters compared with the Global Positioning System(GPS) survey results. The maximum difference of vertical direction between the plotted results in this study and the existing digital map on the scale of 1/5,000 was more than 5 meters according as the topographical characteristics. Although there were some irregular parallax on the images, we realized that it was possible to interpret and plot at least seventy percent of the layer which was required the digital map on the scale of 1/5,000. Also an accuracy of DEM, which was generated based on the digital plotting, was compared with the existing LiDAR DEM. We found that the ortho-images, which were generated using the extracted DEM in this study, sufficiently satisfied with the requirement of the geometric accuracy for an ortho-image map on the scale of 1/5,000.

Modules of the system that requires large capacity and high-speed information processing are implemented in the form of MCM that allows high-speed data processing, high density circuit integration and widely applied to such fields as ATM, GPS and PCS. Hence we developed the ATM switching module that is consisted of three chips and 2.48 Gbps data throughput, in the form of 10 multi-layer by Cu/Photo-BCB and 491pin PBGA which size is $48 \times 48 \textrm {mm}^2$. hnologies required for the development of the MCM includes extracting parameters for designing the substrate/package through the interconnect characterization to implement the high-speed characteristics, thermal management at the high-density MCM, and the generation of the testability that is one of the most difficult issues for developing the MCM. For the development of the ATM Switching MCM, we extracted signaling delay, via characteristics and crosstalk parameters through the interconnect characterization on the MCM-D. For the thermal management of 15.6 Watt under the high-density structure, we carried out the thermal analysis. formed 1.108 thermal vias through the substrate, and performed heat-proofing processing for the entire package so that it can keep the temperature less than $85^{\circ}C$. Lastly, in order to ensure the testability, we verified the substrate through fine pitch probing and applied the Boundary Scan Test (BST) for verifying the complex packaging/assembling processes, through which we developed an efficient and cost-effective product.

수위표의 영점에서 수면까지의 높이로 정의되는 해발수위는 유량 및 유사량 등과 같은 관련 수문자료를 생산하는데 기본이 되는 자료이며, 하천 및 수공구조물의 설계 등에 기초자료로 이용될 뿐만 아니라 수자원의 효율적인 관리 및 수문순환 해석을 위한 가장 중요한 기초자료로서 국가 차원의 올바른 수자원 계획과 정책을 수립하는데 널리 활용된다. 이와 같이 해발수위자료의 이용 분야가 다양하고 그 자체로서도 중요한 의미를 가지는 점을 고려할 때 무엇보다도 중요한 것은 자료의 품질이 확보되어야 하는 것이다. 그러나 영점표고검정수준점 및 기준 수위표의 설치 이후 오랜 시간이 경과됨에 따라 노후화와 수위관측소 주변의 환경변화가 발생하게 되어 자료의 정확도가 매우 낮아지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 해발수위 자료의 품질향상을 위해 수위관측소의 영점표고검정수준점 및 수위표 영점표고에 대하여 수준측량 및 RTK(Real Time Kinematic) GPS(Global Positioning System) 측량을 병행하여 수행하였으며, 조사측량된 값을 활용하여 기존에 측량된 영점표고검정수준점 및 수위표 영점표고에 대한 검토를 수행하였다. 금강 및 삽교천 수계에 위치한 50개 수위관측소 대하여 기존 측량값과 비교 검토한 결과 영점표고검정수준점은 0.10m 이하(54.0%), 0.10m 초과 ~ 0.50m 이하(26.0%), 0.50m 초과 ~ 1.00m 이하(6.0%), 1.00m초과 ~ 1.50m 이하(2.0%), 1.50m 초과 ~ 2.00m 이하(2.0%), 2.00m 초과 ~ 3.00m 이하(4.0%), 3.00m 초과(6.0%)의 값을 나타냈으며, 수위표 영점표고는 0.10m 이하(50.0%), 0.10m 초과 ~ 0.50m 이하(32.0%), 0.50m 초과 ~ 1.00m 이하(10.0%), 1.00m초과 ~ 1.50m 이하(2.0%), 1.50m 초과 ~ 2.00m 이하(2.0%), 2.00m 초과 ~ 3.00m 이하(2.0%), 3.00m 초과(2.0%)의 값을 가졌다. 이와 같이 기존과 금회 측량자료를 비교 검토한 결과 대부분이 안정적으로 유지되고 있으나 일부 수위관측소에서 변동량이 크게 발생한 원인은 영점표고검정수준점의 노후화, 기준 수위표의 교체 및 위치 변동, 인위적인 하천공사 등으로 인하여 발생한 것으로 판단된다.

Recently, the advance of mobile devices has made various services possible beyond simple communication. One of services is the predicting the future path of users and providing the most suitable location based service based on the prediction results. Almost of these prediction methods are based on previous path data. Thus, calculating similarities between current location information and the previous trajectories for path prediction is an important operation. The collected trajectory data have a huge amount of location information generally. These information needs the high computational cost for calculating similarities. For reducing computational cost, the meaningful location based trajectory model approaches are proposed. However, most of the previous researches are considering only the physical information such as stay time and the distance for extracting the meaningful locations. Thus, they will probably ignore the characteristics of users for meaningful location extraction. In this paper, we suggest a meaningful location extracting and trajectory simplification approach considering the stay time, distance, and additionally interaction information of user. The method collects the location information using GPS device and interaction information between the user and the others. Using these data, the proposed method defines the proximity of the people who are related with the user. The system extracts the meaningful locations based on the calculated proximities, stay time and distance. Using the selected meaningful locations the trajectories are simplified. For verifying the usability of the proposed method, we collect the behavioral data of smart phone users. Using these data, we measure the suitability of meaningful location extraction method, and the accuracy of prediction approach based on simplified trajectories. Following these result, we confirmed the usability of proposed method.

Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) were generated by ERS-l/2 and JERS-1 SAR interferometry in Daejon area, Korea. The quality of the DEM's was evaluated by the Ground Control Points (GCPs) in city area where GCPs were determined by GPS surveys, while in the mountain area with no GCPs, a 1:25,000 digital map was used. In order to minimize errors due to the inaccurate satellite orbit information and the phase unwrapping procedure, a Differential InSAR (DInSAR) was implemented in addition to the traditional InSAR analysis for DEM generation. In addition, DEMs from GTOPO30, SRTM-3, and 1:25,000 digital map were used for assessment the resolution of the DEM generated from DInSAR. 5-6 meters of elevation errors were found in the flat area regardless of the usage and the resolution of DEM, as a result of InSAR analyzing with a pair of ERS tandem and 6 pairs of JERS-1 interferograms. In the mountain area, however, DInSAR with DEMs from SRTM-3 and the digital map was found to be very effective to reduce errors due to phase unwrapping procedure. Also errors due to low signal-to-noise ratio of radar images and atmospheric effect were attenuated in the DEMs generated from the stacking of 6 pairs of JERS-1. SAR interferometry with multiple pairs of SAR interferogram with low resolution DEM can be effectively used to enhance the resolution of DEM in terms of data processing time and cost.
