LiDAR (Light Detection And Ranging) system has a profound impact on geoinformatics. The laser mapping system is now recognized as being a viable system to produce the digital surface model rapidly and efficiently. Indeed the number of its applications and users has grown at a surprising rate in recent years. Interest is now focused on the reconstruction of buildings in urban areas from LiDAR data. Although with present technology objects can be extracted and reconstructed automatically using LiDAR data, the quality issue of the results is still major concern in terms of geometric accuracy. It would be enormously beneficial to the geoinformatics industry if geometrically accurate modeling of topographic surface including man-made objects could be produced automatically. The objectives of this study are to reconstruct buildings using airborne LiDAR data and to evaluate accuracy of the result. In these regards, firstly systematic errors involved with ALS (Airborne Laser Scanning) system are introduced. Secondly, the overall LiDAR data quality was estimated based on the ground check points, then classifying the laser points was performed. In this study, buildings were reconstructed from the classified as building laser point clouds. The most likely planar surfaces were estimated by the least-square method using the laser points classified as being planes. Intersecting lines of the planes were then computed and these were defined as the building boundaries. Finally, quality of the reconstructed building was evaluated.

Gravity method produces subsurface density distribution, which is direct information of soundness of basement. Therefore, microgravity is one of the most effective method for detections of limestone cavities, abandoned mine-shafts and other tunnels, The paper show the effectiveness of microgravity by three different field cases.

In multi-dimensional image, ICA-based feature extraction algorithm, which is proposed in this paper, is for the purpose of detecting target feature about pixel assumed as a linear mixed spectrum sphere, which is consisted of each different type of material object (target feature and background feature) in spectrum sphere of reflectance of each pixel. Landsat ETM+ satellite image is consisted of multi-dimensional data structure and, there is target feature, which is purposed to extract and various background image is mixed. In this paper, in order to eliminate background features (tidal flat, seawater and etc) around target feature (laver farm) effectively, pixel spectrum sphere of target feature is projected onto the orthogonal spectrum sphere of background feature. The rest amount of spectrum sphere of target feature in the pixel can be presumed to remove spectrum sphere of background feature. In order to make sure the excellence of feature extraction method based on ICA, which is proposed in this paper, laver farm feature extraction from Landsat ETM+ satellite image is applied. Also, In the side of feature extraction accuracy and the noise level, which is still remaining not to remove after feature extraction, we have conducted a comparing test with traditionally most popular method, maximum-likelihood. As a consequence, the proposed method from this paper can effectively eliminate background features around mixed spectrum sphere to extract target feature. So, we found that it had excellent detection efficiency.

A method to determine the azimuth of a baseline by using the measured apparent directions of the Sun, the measurement time and the latitude and the longitude of the survey point. Comparing the azimuths determined by this method and those determined by the PDGPS(Post Processed Differential GPS) on 3 different baselines, the differences (this method - PDGPS) between the azimuths determined by two methods were -13", +45" and +24" respectively. This method can be used as an effective and rapid tool in cases that require the accuracy lower than 1 arc-min.

A microgravity survey was applied for detecting and mapping karstic cavities over limestone area at Gaeun. The gravity data were collected at about 1, 100 stations by 4 m interval. The density distribution beneath the profiles was drawn by two dimensional inversion based on the minimum support stabilizing functional, which generated better focused images of density discontinuities. We also imaged three dimensional density distribution by growing body inversion. The density image showed that the cavities were dissolved, enlarged and connected into a cavity network system.

KIGAM has installed a FLARE+ continuous geomagnetic observation system in 1998 in Daejeon of which the IAGA identification code is DZN. The coordinates of the absolute measurement plinth precisely determined by the PDGPS(Post-Processing Differential Global Positioning System) is (127-21-37.19E, 36-22-43.96N, 45.93 m) in WGS84 for the horizontal and from the geoid surface for the vertical. Periodically we have conducted the absolute geomagnetic measurement on the plinth above. We have processed the continuous time-variation 3-axis geomagnetic data measured on arbitrary sensors' coordinates in the observatory and absolute geomagnetic data together to get as the results the time-variation H(orizontal), D(eclination), Z(vertical down), F(scalar calculated from 3 components) and P(Proton Precession Magnetometer Data). We have compared our own data with those calculated from the 10th generation IGRF(International Geomagnetic Reference Field). All the measured data in the DZN Observatory can be acquired through the website http://geomag.kigam.re.kr.

Both geophysical and geospatial data provide important information in the establishment of the optimal telecommunication systems especially in the mobile telecommunication environment. The objective of this study is to utilize geophysical properties and geospatial information in the analysis of the telecommunication environment through point-to-point wave property modeling. Geophysical properties associated with wave propagation parameters of the earth surface were analyzed based on hierarchical land classification using Landsat ETM＋ and IKONOS images. Three-dimensional geospatial information was obtained by processing stereo aerial images. The results show that the accurate geospatial information and reliable geosphysical property of the surface improve the prediction of receiving power of the receivers located near corners of the buildings where diffractions occur. The wave property model developed from accurate telecommunication environment could be applied to optimal cell planning and delay time analysis.

In this paper, we propose a spatial filtering scheme using factorial kriging, one of geostatistical filtering methodin order to separate regional and residual gravity anomaly. This scheme is based on the assumption that regional anomalies have longer distance relation and residual anomalies have effected on smaller range. We decomposed gravity anomalies intotwo variogram models with long and short effectiveranges by means of factorial kriging. And decomposed variogram models produced the regional and residual anomalies. This algorithm was examined using by a synthetic gravity data, and applied to a real microgravity data to figure out abandoned mineshaft.
