Research & Development

A corporate research institute registered since 2013, working on national R&D programmes in drone data AI analysis, automated map updating and spatial big data.

Programme 01

DNA + drone technology development

Software that visualises the AI analysis results of drone services, built on a 2D/3D visualisation library linked to three-dimensional spatial information.

Drone data AI analysis pipeline A drone operated by a drone operator captures video, which reaches the ETRI media server and is streamed in real time. An AI analysis body post-processes the analysed video, a post-processing body handles the source video, and the result is published as a web visualisation service. Drone / operating body Captured video ETRI media server real-time streaming AI analysis body video post-processing Source video post-processing Web visualisation service
Drone data AI analysis pipeline, developed with ETRI.

Business models built on this pipeline cover four domains:

  • Policing
  • Structures
  • Agriculture
  • Water resources

Programme 02

Automated updating of the Underground Space Integrated Map

Two workstreams: a continuous update framework for the map itself, and a field-application support framework that gets the data into the hands of people working on site.

1. Continuous update framework

1-1 · Change object monitoring, detection and extraction
Real-time monitoring of change · change object extraction · change object management.
1-2 · Automated processing and analysis of change objects
Automated change object processing · automatic service file generation · multi-source underground data analysis.
1-3 · Quality management
Standard data model development · data consistency verification · quality management technology.

2. Field application support framework

2-1 · Improving underground data accuracy
Precision underground survey technology · composite data processing and extraction · precision survey system construction.
2-2 · Mobile integrated management
Mobile Underground Space Integrated Map · security and transmission for the mobile environment · mobile integrated map service.
2-3 · Field verification of underground data
Field application system construction · on-site verification and validation · test bed construction.

Target outcome: a continuously updated Underground Space Integrated Map, plus at least two service models built on it.
