Mapping levees is important for analyzing levee surfaces, assessing levee stability, etc. Historically, mapping levees has been carried out using ground surveying methods or only one type of remote sensing dataset. This research aims to map levees using airborne topographic LiDAR data and multispectral orthoimages taken in the Nakdong River Basins. Levee surfaces consist of multiple objects wit...

The changes in hydraulic geometry of the Hwang River downstream of Hapcheon Dam have been investigated since 1982. The study reach is 45 km long from the Hapcheon Re-regulation Dam to the confluence with the Nakdong River, in South Korea. The geographic information system (GIS) analysis of a time series of aerial photographs taken in 1982, 1993 and 2004 showed that the non-vegetated active chan...
