Abstract PDF: In South Korea, rural areas have been recognized for their potential as sustainable spaces for the future, but they are currently facing major problems. Unplanned construction of facilities such as factories, livestock facilities, and solar panels near residential areas is destroying the rural environment and deteriorating the quality of life of residents. Detection and monitoring of rural facilities are necessary to prevent disorderly development in rural areas and to manage rural space in a planned manner. In this study, satellite imagery data was utilized to obtain information on rural areas, which is useful for observing large areas and monitoring time series changes compared to field surveys. In this study, KOMPSAT ortho-mosaic optical imagery from 2019 and 2020 were utilized to construct AI training datasets for rural hazardous facilities segmentation for Seosan, Anseong, Naju, and Geochang areas. The dataset can be used in image segmentation models to classify rural facilities and can be used to monitor potentially hazardous facilities in rural areas. It is expected to contribute to solving rural problems by serving as the basis for rural planning.

AI Dataset for Road Detection using KOMPSAT Images: Hoonhee Lee, Han Oh; GEO DATA. 2022;4(1):43-48. Published online March 31, 2022; DOI: https://doi.org/10.22761/DJ2022.4.1.005

Abstract PDF: Information on shape and type of road present in an optical image of satellite is useful for digital mapping and monitoring of road changes. Processing and structuring optical image data collected from payloads mounted on KOMPSAT 3 and 3A can accelerate the development of road detection algorithms and the extraction of road information using them. In particular, if it is built with a learning dataset for AI (Artificial Intelligence) prepared to apply deep learning technology, the latest artificial intelligence technology in the field of computer science can be spun off to the field of satellite image-based road detection to attempt a wide range of analysis. Korea Aerospace Research Institute constructed an image dataset for AI learning using satellite optical images with Korean companies, and this paper explains the type and size of datasets along with examples of the use of the dataset. The established data can be used through the website, aihub.or.kr.

Quality Control and Verification of Artificial Intelligence Data: Myeung Un Kim, Hyojung Ahn; GEO DATA. 2021;3(3):35-40. Published online September 30, 2021; DOI: https://doi.org/10.22761/DJ2021.3.3.004

Abstract PDF: High-quality artificial intelligence (AI) data provides accurate information for developing AI models. These results in increasing the efficiency of the model. On the other hand, if low-quality data is used, it may adversely affect the development of AI models. To improve the quality of our research, we need to increase the quality of AI data. This is possible through systematic quality control and verification of the data. Currently, there are various guidelines such as the data quality act of the US, the ISO 8000 series of the International Organization for Standardization, and the Big Data quality verification standard of the United Nations, as well as Korea's database quality certification. In this study, the current status of data quality management is identified and its implications are considered.

Dataset for Water Body Detection Using Satellite SAR Images: SeungJae Lee, Han Oh; GEO DATA. 2021;3(2):12-19. Published online July 21, 2021; DOI: https://doi.org/10.22761/DJ2021.3.2.002

Abstract PDF: Satellite synthetic aperture radar (SAR) generates valid image information in all-weather. Thus, it can be effectively used for near real-time monitoring and damage analysis of flood areas which always involve overcast skies. Water body detection (WBD) using SAR images can be implemented by various techniques which discriminate electromagnetic characteristics between water and non-water areas. Especially, semantic segmentation exploiting artificial intelligence techniques can be used to develop a high-performance WBD model. To this end, Korea Aerospace Research Institute has built an WBD dataset using KOMPSAT-5 images. The dataset is currently available through the website, aihub.or.kr.
