The purpose of this study is focused on the development of compound classification process by mixing multitemporal data and annexing a specific image enhancement technique with a specific image classification algorithm, to gain more accurate land information from satellite imagery. That is, this study suggests the classification process using canonical correlation classification technique after principal component analysis for the mixed multitemporal data. The result of this proposed classification process is compared with the canonical correlation classification result of one date images, multitemporal imagery and a mixed image after principal component analysis for one date images. The satellite images which are used are the Landsat 5 TM images acquired on July 26, 1994 and September 1, 1996. Ground truth data for accuracy assessment is obtained from topographic map and aerial photograph, and all of the study area is used for accuracy assessment. The proposed compound classification process showed superior efficiency to appling canonical correlation classification technique for only one date image in classification accuracy by 8.2%. Especially, it was valid in classifying mixed urban area correctly. Conclusively, to improve the classification accuracy when extracting land cover information using Landsat TM image, appling canonical correlation classification technique after principal component analysis for multitemporal imagery is very useful.

Because the satellite imagery can detect the radiative heat from the surface using the thermal IR (TIR) channel, there have been many efforts to verify the relationship between the land surface temperature (LST) and urban heat island. However, the relationship between geomorphological characteristics like surface aspects and LST is relatively less studied. Therefore, the geomorphological elements, for example, surface aspects and surface slopes, are considered to evaluate their effects on the change of the surface temperature distribution using the Landsat 7 ETM+ TIR channel and the possibility of the image to detect anthropogenic heat from the surface. We found that the surface aspect is ignorable but the surface slope with the sun elevation influences on the surface temperature distribution. Also, the radiative heat from the surface to the atmosphere could not be accurately recorded by the satellite image due to the surface slope but the slope correction process used in this study could correct the surface temperature under slope condition and the slope correction, in fact, was not influenced on the average temperature of the surface. The possibility of the anthropogenic heat detection from the surface from the satellite imagery was verified as well.

The aim of this study is to compare the classification results for choosing the fuzzy membership function within fuzzy rules. There are various methods of extracting rules from training data in the process of fuzzy rules generation. Pattern distribution characteristics are considered to produce fuzzy rules. The accuracy of classification results are depended on not only considering the characteristics of fuzzy subspaces but also choosing the fuzzy membership functions. This paper shows how to produce various type of fuzzy rules from the partitioning the pattern spaces and results of land cover classification in satellite remote sensing images by adopting various fuzzy membership functions. The experiments of this study is applied to Landsat TM image and the results of classification are compared by fuzzy membership functions.

China is one of the countries in which flood occurs most frequently in the world and with the current economic growth; flood disaster causes more and more economic losses. Chinese government pays more attention to flood monitoring and assessment by space technology. Since1983, NOAA(AVHRR), Landsat-TM, LANDSAT-ETM+, JERS-1, SPOT, ERS-2, Radarsat-1, CBERS-1, Envisat have been used for flood monitoring and assessment. Due to the bad weather conditions during flood, microwave remote sensing is the major tools for flood monitoring. Envisat is one of the best satellite with powerful SAR. Its application for flood monitoring has been studied and its near real time(NRT) application can be realized on the basis of real-time delivery of image. During the 2005, 2006 and 2007 flood seasons, over the 31 NRT flood monitoring based on Envisat, had been carried out in Yangtze, Songua, Huaihe, pearl river basin. The result shows that Envisat SAR is very useful data source for flood disaster monitoring and assessment.

A low cost image processing system based on a CROMEMCO microcomputer called KAIS-MIPS, is developed for processing remotely sensed Landsat data. It hardware system can be easily interfacd with other peripheral devices. The software system provides flexibility, expansibility, portability, and maintainability as well as extensive processing capacity. As an example, processing and land use classification of Landsat 2 data for the Inchun city and its 6vicinity in Korea are provided.

To get the knowledge of land uses for watersheds, Thematic Mapper image from Landsat 5 satellite was used. The image was classified into land covers/uses by maximum likelihood classification technique. Land uses from the satellite image in this study was compared with those from the topographical map in previous. It was found that Land uses from the satellite image had a good reflection of real situations and more advantage in the reduction of time and cost.

In order to assess the estimtions of CN for a small agricultural watershed using the satellite image, TM image from Landsat-5 was classsified by MLC. CN for each pixels in the image was estimaed using the results. For the estimation enhancing , it was tried that each land use area in a pixel was estimated by the mixel assumption and the averaged CN by weight areas. Those resutls were applied for the actual hydrologic analyses were highly concerned with the observed runoff discharge and more enhanced on the mixel assumption.

In an attempt to enhance the visual effect of SPOT image, this study develops a neural network algorithm to transform SPOT false color into simulated true color. The method has been tested using Landsat TM and SPOT images. The qualitative and quantitative comparisons indicate that the striking similarity can be found between the true and simulated true images in terms of the visual looks and the statistical analysis.

This research is an attempt to obtain more accurate land cover information from LANDSAT images. Canonical correlation analysis, which has not been widely used in the image classification community, was applied to the classification of a LANDSAT images. It was found that it is easy to select training areas on the classification using canonical correlation analysis in comparison with the maximum likelihood classifier of $ERDAS^{(R)}$ software. In other words, the selected positions of training areas hardly affect the classification results using canonical correlation analysis. when the same training areas are used, the mapping accuracy of the canonical correlation classification results compared with the ground truth data is not lower than that of the maximum likelihood classifier. The kappa analysis for the canonical correlation classifier and the maximum likelihood classifier showed that the two methods are alike in classification accuracy. However, the canonical correlation classifier has better points than the maximum likelihood classifier in classification characteristics. Therefore, the classification using canonical correlation analysis applied in this research is effective for the extraction of land cover information from LANDSAT images and will be able to be put to practical use.

지표에서의 토양수분은 작은 구성비를 가짐에도 불구하고 여러 수문 현상을 연계하는 매우 중요한 인자로써 최근 연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 토양수분은 침투나 침루를 통하여 강우와 지하수를 연결하는 기능을 함과 동시에 강우사상에 따른 유출특성에 직접적인 영향을 미치며 증발산을 통하여 에너지 순환을 연결하는 기능을 하는 인자로 기후변화와 인간의 활동에 의해 영향을 받는다. 지난 수십 년간 산림개간과 도시화는 토지이용의 변화를 초래하여 토지피복의 변화를 초래하였다. 도시화는 불투수층을 증가시켰고, 산림개간으로 산림이 농장으로 변하여 침투율을 감소시켜 유출률의 증가를 초래하였다. 이처럼 토지피복의 변화는 토양수분의 변화에 직접적인 영향을 미친다. 본 연구에서는 토지피복 분류를 위해 구름의 영향이 적은 Landsat TM 영상을 사용하여 청미천 유역의 토지피복을 분류하여 토지피복도를 작성하였다. 청미천 유역은 현재 국제수문관측사업(IHP)의 일환으로 체계적인 수문관측이 진행되고 있는 지점으로, 추후 인공위성 영상을 통해 산정한 토양수분 자료를 비교할 수 있는 유역이다. Landsat TM 영상은 2009년 5월 23일에 관측된 115-34(path row) 영상으로 구름이 거의 없는 날의 자료를 사용하였다. 다중 스펙트럴 위성영상인 Landsat TM 영상은 30m 공간해상도로써 토지피복분류와 식생 등의 정보를 추출하는데 적합한 것으로 알려져 있다. 청미천 유역의 위성영상에 대하여 영상의 전처리 과정을 거쳐 무감독분류와 감독분류기법을 적용하여 토지피복을 분류하였다. 분류한 토지피복도는 국토해양부에서 국가수자원관리 종합정보시스템(WAMIS) 을 통하여 제공되는 토지피복도와 비교하였다.
