Development of An Automated Satellite Image Collection and Processing System for Image Utilization

초록

The growing demand for satellite imagery has attracted interest from non-traditional users such as local governments and industry practitioners. However, many find the process of searching, collecting, and utilizing satellite data too technical, requiring expertise in remote sensing and image processing. To address this challenge, we developed an automated system that manages the entire workflow from image acquisition to pre- and post-processing for both satellite and UAV imagery. Users can define search criteria such as region of interest, time, image type, and cloud coverage, after which the system automatically retrieves and downloads matching data via APIs or official websites. The collected data are then stored in a database and prepared for various applications, including time-series analysis, AI-based object detection, and change monitoring. This automation is expected to significantly lower entry barriers, making satellite imagery more accessible and efficiently usable across diverse fields. © ACRS 2025.All rights reserved.
