Using 30 days of hourly visible channel data and DIScrete Ordinate Radiative Transfer (DISORT) model (6S), Aerosol optical depth (AOD) at $0.55{\mu}m$ was retrieved over the East Asia. In contrast with the AOD retrieval using low-earth-orbit satellites such as MODIS (Moderate-Res olution Spectroradiometer) or MISR (Multiangle Imaging SpectroRadiometer), this algorithm with geostationary satellite can improve the monitoring of AOD without the limitation of temporal resolution. Due to the limited number of channels in the conventional meteorological imager onboard the geostationary satellite, an AOD retrieval algorithm utilizing a single visible channel has been introduced. This single channel algorithm has larger retrieval error of AOD than other multiple-channel algorithm due to errors in surface reflectance and atmospheric property. In this study, the effects of manifold atmospheric and surface properties on the retrieval of AOD from the geostationary satellite, are investigated and compared with the AODs from AERONET and MODIS. To improve the accuracy of retrieved AOD, efforts were put together to minimize uncertainties through extensive sensitivity tests. This algorithm can be utilized to retrieve aerosol information from previous geostationary satellite for long-term climate studies.

한국의 '국가우주개발 중장기계획'에 의거하여 2008년에 첫 번째 정지궤도 통신해양기상위성(COMeS)을 발사하기 위한 사업이 추진되고 있다. 이에, 기상청은 이 위성의 기상분야 임무와 이를 완수하기 위한 요구사항을 작성하고 있다. 좀더 현실적이고 실현 가능한 요구사항을 작성하기 위해 1차적으로 가장 이상적인 위성산출자료에 대한 요구(안)을 작성하여, 실제 센서를 제작할 수 있는 기관에 1차 요구사항에 대한 의견을 요청하였다. 이들 기관에서의 답변과 다른 고려 사항들을 종합하여 2008년 발사에 필요한 수정된 요구사항을 작성하였으며, 본 논문에서는 이 수정(안)에 대해서 간단히 소개한다. 수정된 안은 정지궤도위성의 가장 중요한 임무를 한반도 주변의 악기상 탐지 및 예측성 제고에 두고 있으며, 이를 위해 기존의 정지궤도위성에서 사용하고 있는 탐측기(Sounder)의 핵심 관측파장대를 성능이 향상된 영상기(Imager)에 수용하는 원칠을 두고 작성되었다. 이 경우, 원하는 대부분의 기상요소를 산출하기 위해서는 모두 16 개 정도의 파장대에서 관측이 필요하며, 최소 12개의 파장대 관측이 필요할 것으로 조사되었다. 12개의 최소 파장대는 기존 정지궤도 영상기에서 활용되고 있는 6개의 채널에 2개의 가시채널, 1개의 근적외 채널, 2개의 수증기 채널, 그리고 오존흡수밴드가 포함되어 있다. 이들 관측자료로부터 기존의 정지궤도위성의 산출물과 수증기, 안정도지수, 바람장, 특이기상분석자료(황사, 해무 등) 등의 2차 산출물을 생산하여 활용하고자 한다. 또한, 시간적으로 고해상도의 자료를 얻기 위해서 영상기는 기본적으로 15분 이내에 전구관측이 이루어져야 하며, 필요할 경우에는 제한된 지역을 집중 관측할 수 있는 능력이 확보되도록 요구하고 있다. 요구되는 수평해상도는 가시영역의 경우 1km, 적외영역의 경우에는 2km를 경계값으로 하고, 목표값은 각각 0.5km와 1km로 하였다.

적외선 센서는 대상 물체의 열 분포를 감지할 수 있고, 그것으로부터 얻은 영상은 물체 내부의 결함과 그 물체표면의 이물질 등의 효과가 모두 포함된 상태이므로 적외선 열 화상 자체만으로는 비정상적인 부분들을 찾아내기 어렵다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 적외선 센서로부터 얻은 영상을 가시화 하는 방법으로 가시광선 영상과의 중첩방법을 제시한다. 이를 위해서 평행이동 관계에 있는 두 가시광선 영상으로부터 열 화상에 대응하는 보간 영상을 생성하고, 이것을 적외선 센서에 의해 감지된 온도를 매핑한 열 화상과 중첩시킨다. 본 논문에서 제안한 가시화 기법은 적외선 센서의 특성을 최대한 고려할 수 있기 때문에 재해방지를 위한 비파괴 검사 등에 쓰여질 수 있다.

The objective of this study was to classify between radish and Chinese cabbage in autumn using hyperspectral images. The hyperspectral images were acquired by Compact Airborne Spectrographic Imager (CASI) with 1m spatial resolution and 48 bands covering the visible and near infrared portions of the solar spectrum from 370 to 1044 nm with a bandwidth of 14 nm. An object-based technique is used for classification of radish and Chinese cabbage. It was found that the optimum parameter values for image segmentation were scale 400, shape 0.1, color 0.9, compactness 0.5 and smoothness 0.5. As a result, the overall accuracy of classification was 90.7 % and the kappa coefficient was 0.71. The hyperspectral images can be used to classify other crops with higher accuracy than radish and Chines cabbage because of their similar characteristic and growth time.

Korea Aerospace Research Institute (KARI) has a plan to launch COMS for consistent monitoring of the Korean Peninsula. Korea Geostationary Ocean Color Imager (GOCI) is one of the main payloads of COMS which will provide a monitoring of ocean-colour around the Korean Peninsula from geostationary platforms. Ocean color observation from geostationary platform is required to achieve the proper spatial and temporal resolution for coastal observation mission. In this paper the characteristics of GOCI and LEO sensors are discussed. GOCI will provide the measurement data of 6 visible channels and 2 near-infrared channels (400nm ~ 900nm). The integration time and aperture diameter required to achieve the SNR specification of KGOCI are analyzed.

This is a widespread requirement for low cost lightweight thermal imaging sensors for both military and civilian applications. Today, a large number of uncooled infrared detector developments are under progress due to the availability of silicon technology that enables realization of low cost IR sensor. System prices are continuing to drop, and swelling production volume will soon drive process substantially lower. The feasibility of micromechanical optical and infrared (IR) detection using microcantilevers is demonstrated. Microcantilevers provide a simple Structurefor developing single- and multi-element sensors for visible and infrared radiation that are smaller, more sensitive and lower in cost than quantum or thermal detectors. Microcantilevers coated with a heat absorbing layer undergo bending due to the differential stress originating from the bimetallic effect. This paper reports a micromachined silicon uncooled thermal imager intended for applications in automated process control. This paper presents the design, fabrication, and the behavior of cantilever for thermomechanical sensing.

An ultraviolet (UV) image sensor is an extremely important optoelectronic device used in scientific and medical applications because it can detect images that cannot be obtained using visible or infrared image sensors. Because photodetectors and transistors are based on different materials, conventional UV imaging devices, which have a hybrid-type structure, require additional complex processes such as a backside etching of a GaN epi-wafer and a wafer-to-wafer bonding for the fabrication of the image sensors. In this study, we developed a monolithic GaN UV passive pixel sensor (PPS) by integrating a GaN-based Schottky-barrier type transistor and a GaN UV photodetector on a wafer. Both individual devices show good electrical and photoresponse characteristics, and the fabricated UV PPS was successfully operated under UV irradiation conditions with a high on/off extinction ratio of as high as $10^3$. This integration technique of a single pixel sensor will be a breakthrough for the development of GaN-based optoelectronic integrated circuits.

Geostationary Ocean Color Imager (GOCI) onboard its Communication Ocean and Meteorological Satellite (COMS) is scheduled for launch in 2008. GOCI includes the eight visible-to-near-infrared (NIR) bands, 0.5km pixel resolution, and a coverage region of 2500 ${\times}$ 2500km centered at 36N and 130E. GOCI has had the scope of its objectives broadened to understand the role of the oceans and ocean productivity in the climate system, biogeochemical variables, geological and biological response to physical dynamics and to detect and monitor toxic algal blooms of notable extension through observations of ocean color. To achieve these mission objectives, it is necessary to develop an atmospheric correction technique which is capable of delivering geophysical products, particularly for highly turbid coastal regions that are often dominated by strongly absorbing aerosols from the adjacent continental/desert areas. In this paper, we present a more realistic and cost-effective atmospheric correction method which takes into account the contribution of NIR radiances and include specialized models for strongly absorbing aerosols. This method was tested extensively on SeaWiFS ocean color imagery acquired over the Northwest Pacific waters. While the standard SeaWiFS atmospheric correction algorithm showed a pronounced overcorrection in the violet/blue or a complete failure in the presence of strongly absorbing aerosols (Asian dust or Yellow dust) over these regions, the new method was able to retrieve the water-leaving radiance and chlorophyll concentrations that were consistent with the in-situ observations. Such comparison demonstrated the efficiency of the new method in terms of removing the effects of highly absorbing aerosols and improving the accuracy of water-leaving radiance and chlorophyll retrievals with SeaWiFS imagery.

To examine the detectability of the aerosol and/or Yellow dust from China crossing over the Yellow sea, three works carried out as follows , Firstly, a comparison was made of the visible(VIS), water vapor(WV), and Infrared(IR) images of the GMS-5 and NOAA/AVHRR on the cases of yellow sand event over Korea. Secondly, the spectral radiance and reflectance(%) was observed during the yellow sand phenomena on April, 1998 in Seoul using the GER-2600 spectroradiometer, which observed the reflected radiance from 350 to 2500 nm in the atmosphere. We selected the optimum wavelength for detecting of the yellow sand from this observation, considering the effects of atmospheric absorption. Finally, the atmospheric radiance emerging from the LOWTRAN-7 radiative transfer model was simulated with and without yellow sand, where we used the estimated aerosol column optical depth ($\tau$ 673 nm) in the Meteorological Research Institute and the d'Almeida's statistical atmospheric aerosol radiative characteristics. The image analysis showed that it was very difficult to detect the yellow sand region only by the image processing because the albedo characteristics of the sand vary irregularly according to the density, size, components and depth of the yellow sand clouds. We found that the 670-680 nm band was useful to simulate aerosol characteristics considering the absorption band from the radiance observation. We are now processing the simulation of atmospheric radiance distribution in the range of 400-900 nm. The purpose of this study is to present the preliminary results of the aerosol and/or Yellow dust detectability using the Ocean Scanning Multispectral Imager(OSMI), which will be mounted on KOMPSAT-1 as the ocean color monitoring sensor with the range of 400-900 nm wavelength.

적설은 강수의 한 형태로 지표면에 쌓인 눈으로 정의되며 빙권의 가장 큰 단일 구성 요소로서 지구 표면과 대기 사이의 열 교환이나 전 지구 또는 지역적인 측면에서 지구의 에너지 수지 균형을 유지하는 중요한 역할을 하는 등 지구 표면 온도를 조절하는데 영향을 미친다. 그러나 적설은 인간의 접근이 어려운 지역에 주로 분포하기 때문에 위성을 활용한 적설 탐지가 활발히 수행되고 있으며 산림 지역의 적설 탐지는 구름과 적설의 구분 다음으로 중요한 과정이다. 따라서 본 연구는 기존 극 궤도 위성에서 산림 지역 적설 탐지에 활용하는 Normalized Difference Snow Index(NDSI) 및 Normalized Difference Vegetation Index(NDVI)를 정지궤도 위성에 적용하였으며, 산림 지역 외 영역은 적설의 분광 특징을 활용한 $R_{1.61{\mu}m}$ anomaly 기법 및 NDSI를 활용하여 적설 탐지를 수행하였다. 본 연구에서 산출한 Snow Cover 자료와 Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer(VIIRS) Snow Cover 자료를 활용해 간접 검증을 수행한 결과, Probability of Detection(POD)는 99.95%, False Alarm Ratio(FAR)는 16.63 %로 나타났다. Himawari-8 Advanced Himawari Imager(AHI) RGB 영상을 추가로 활용해 정성적 검증 또한 수행하였으며 수행 결과, VIIRS Snow Cover가 미탐지한 영역과 본 연구가 오탐지한 영역이 혼합되어 나타났다.
