At the recent conference held in Taichung, Taiwan, doctoral student Joo-Hyun Shim presented a paper titled "Innovative Fog Prediction and Monitoring Through Image-Driven Atmospheric Parameters," earning the Best Student Paper Award.


In this study, he explained a method to derive atmospheric parameters from images captured by a regular camera and described the changes observed when fog occurs, receiving excellent evaluations.


Notably, the research was recognized for its significance in demonstrating that visibility distance, which is typically obtained using conventional visibility measurement equipment, can be measured using only ordinary images, and fog occurrence can be detected.


Professor Young-Min Noh, Shim’s advisor, stated, “It seems that meaningful achievements have been recognized through continuous applied research utilizing cameras for atmospheric environment analysis. We expect to lead the development of new analytical methods for air quality management through ongoing atmospheric environment research based on remote sensing technology.”



Professor Young-Min Noh, the advisor, is managing the Fine Dust Management Specialized Graduate School Project (4th year), a professional manpower training program at Pukyong National University. Doctoral student Joo-Hyun Shim belongs to the Atmospheric Environment Remote Sensing Laboratory in the Department of Environmental Engineering at Pukyong National University and is conducting various research projects on fine dust monitoring and reduction technologies.
