South Korea's Defense Acquisition Program Administration (DAPA) has developed a real-time 3- Dimensional Target Extraction & Matching technology which provides the ability to secure target data in inaccessible areas.

The technology will improve precision strike capability of guided weapon systems, DAPA said in a release today. It was developed through DAPA's core technology project from 2017 to 21.

The Defense Science Research Institute (ADD) applied image processing techniques to various commercially available satellite and aerial optical images to generate three-dimensional data of the target area. The technology consists of a database for the restoration of precise 3D topographical data and structural data of the target area, a target matching simulation to verify the quality of the restored data, and an integrated management of related data.

Utilizing this technology, it is possible to quickly create target data for guided weapons, which was previously obtained manually, and to verify the quality of the generated data. Therefore, it is expected that the quality of the target data will be improved and the work efficiency of the person in charge of the relevant work will be improved. ADD plans to further improve the performance of extracting target data in inaccessible areas by applying artificial intelligence technology to the developed technology.
