Development of Maritime Issues Detection Technology and Service System Based on a Second Geostationary Ocean Color Imager (GOCI-II)

Abstract

The Korean geostationary ocean color satellite, GOCI-II, is a valuable tool for monitoring the waters surrounding the Korean Peninsula. With its ability to provide 12-band datasets at a spatial resolution of 250 meters, it is ideal for observing marine phenomena. The high temporal resolution of GOCI-II also ensures stable observational performance, making it an effective tool for detecting maritime issues such as red tide, brown tide (Sargassum horneri), sea ice, and chlorophyll bloom. By utilizing GOCI-II data, a maritime issue monitoring service system has been developed and compared with field or satellite data from 2022 to 2023. Through the customization of the system to meet the practical needs of the industry and the application of AI technology, a highly effective system can be established to respond to maritime issues.
