Abstract

A critical issue among nations in the coming decades will be how to manage the use of facilities, land, and natural resources. Recently, fast urbanization and industrialization have resulted in rapid changes in the urban environment. For effective monitoring and management of these changes, a new surveying methodology that is more inexpensive and timely than the conventional remote sensing system is required. One such methodology is a videographic system that can acquire high-resolution, low-altitude video sequences for effective environmental management. Video data as core data are expected to play an important role in next generation GIS. This paper proposes an unmanned airship videographic system capable of acquiring stable video. In addition, it presents approaches to constructing a prototype facilities management system based on Video GIS, which links GIS functions and video data to provide actual spatio-temporal information.
