Abstract

River surveying is conducted to acquire basic geographic data for river master plans and various river maintenance, and it is also used to predict changes after river maintenance construction. ABL (Airborne Bathymetric LiDAR) system is a cutting-edge surveying technology that can simultaneously observe the water surface and river bed using a green laser, and has many advantages in river surveying. In order to use the ABL data for river surveying, it is prerequisite step to segment and extract the water surface and river bed points from the original point cloud data. In this study, point cloud segmentation was performed by applying the ground filtering technique, ATIN (Adaptive Triangular Irregular Network) to the ABL data and then, the water surface and riverbed point clouds were extracted sequentially. In the Gokgyocheon river area, Chungcheongnam-do, the experiment was conducted with the dataset obtained using the Leica Chiroptera 4X sensor. As a result of the study, the overall classification accuracy for the water surface and riverbed was 88.8%, and the Kappa coefficient was 0.825, confirming that the ABL data can be effectively used for river surveying.

하천측량은 하천기본계획 및 각종 하천 정비의 기초자료를 취득하기 위해 활용되며 하천의 물리적 형태와 하천 정비 이후의 변화를 예측하기 위해서도 활용된다. 항공수심라이다(ABL: Airborne Bathymetric LiDAR) 시스템은 그린 레이저를 사용하여 수면과 하상을 동시에 측량할 수 있는 시스템으로써 하천의 수심 및 하상 측량에 효과적으로 활용될 수 있다. 항공수심라이다 데이터를 하천 측량에 활용하기 위해서는 취득된 점군 데이터부터 수면과 하상 점들을 분리하고 추출하는 과정이 선행되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 대표적인 지면필터링 기법인 ATIN(Adaptive Triangular Irregular Network) 알고리즘을 적용하여 항공수심라이다의 점군 데이터로부터 저수심 하천의 수면과 하상 점군을 분리하기 위한 방법론을 구축하고 제안된 방법론의 효용성을 검증하였다. 이를 위해 충청남도 곡교천 일대에서 Leica Chiroptera 4X 센서로부터 취득된 데이터를 이용하여 실험을 수행하였다. 연구결과 수면과 하상에 대한 분류 정확도는 88.8%, Kappa 계수는 0.825를 얻을 수 있었으며, 항공수심라이다 데이터를 하천측량에 효과적으로 활용할 수 있음을 확인하였다.
