Abstract

KOMPSAT-2(Korea Multi-Purpose Satellite) is a new high resolution earth observation satellite to be launched in 2004 by the Korean Government. This satellite is capable of acquiring 1m panchromatic and 4m multi-spectral images and will transmit the image to ground at 320Mbps. This paper will address the work being carried out for the development of image reception, processing and distribution system for the KOMPSAT-2 image data. The development work has been focused on automation, speed, reliability, integrity, cost, expandability and security of the system. The system was divided into three sub-systems and three sub-systems into 20 software modules. An emphasis was put to the integration of value-added processing modules into the whole system. With this, we intended to fully automate the processing chain from image reception to the generation of value-added information. The development work is still undergoing and this paper will report the design of the system, progress and lessons learned.
