Metode Fotogrametri telah banyak digunakan dalam survei dan pemetaan. Seiring dengan kemajuan ilmu pengetahuan dan teknologi, metode fotogrametri saat ini berbasiskan pesawat tanpa awak atau yang lebih dikenal dengan UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle). Kelebihan metode fotogrametri berbasiskan UAV untuk pengukuran garis pantai adalah memiliki resolusi spasial yang sangat tinggi dan dapat menjagkau daerah-daerah yang sulit dan berbahaya. Di samping itu juga dapat memberikan data foto udara terkini dengan sekala detail. Dalam penelitian ini membandingkan ketelitian horisontal antara hasil pengukuran garis pantai menggunakan metode fotogrametri berbasiskan UAV secara rektifikasi dengan GCP (Ground Control Point) maupun secara PPK (Post Processed Kinematic) dengan pengukuran garis pantai metode GNSS RTK (Real Time Kinematic). Hasil perhitungan ketelitian horisontal mengacu pada standar publikasi IHO S-44 tentang pengukuran garis pantai. Pemotretan dilakukan dengan ketinggian terbang 180 m, dengan tampalan depan dan samping 80%. Hasil perhitungan ketelitian horisontal foto udara terektifikasi 5 GCP, foto udara PPK dan foto udara PPK terektifikasi 1 GCP terhadap pengukuran garis pantai dengan metode GNSS RTK diperoleh nilai standar deviasi (σ) dan 95% selang kepercayaan (CI95%) masing-masing sebagai berikut: σ5gcp=10,989 cm dengan CI95% 16.8 cm < μ < 21.2 cm , σppk=26,066 cm dengan CI95% 26.5 cm < μ < 37 cm dan σppk1gcp=10,378 cm dengan CI95% 15.6 cm < μ < 19.8 cm. Kemudian terdapat 10 objek tematik berdasarkan Peta Laut Nomor 1 yang dapat diinterpretasi pada hasil orthomosaic foto udara.

Abstract An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAVs), also known as drone technology, is used for different types of application in the civil engineering. Drones as a tools that increase communication between construction participants, improves site safety, uses topographic measurements of large areas, with using principles of aerial photogrammetry is possible to create buildings aerial surveying, bridges, roads, highways, saves project time and costs, etc. The use of UAVs in the civil engineering can brings many benefits; creating real-time aerial images from the building objects, overviews reveal assets and challenges, as well as the broad lay of the land, operators can share the imaging with personnel on site, in headquarters and with sub-contractors, planners can meet virtually to discuss project timing, equipment needs and challenges presented by the terrain. The aim of this contribution is to create a general overview of the use of UAVs in the civil engineering. The contribution also contains types of UAVs used for construction purposes, their advantages and also disadvantages.

The question of how to estimate the state of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) in real time in multi-environments remains a challenge. Although the global navigation satellite system (GNSS) has been widely applied, drones cannot perform position estimation when a GNSS signal is not available or the GNSS is disturbed. In this paper, the problem of state estimation in multi-environments is solved by employing an Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) algorithm to fuse the data from multiple heterogeneous sensors (MHS), including an inertial measurement unit (IMU), a magnetometer, a barometer, a GNSS receiver, an optical flow sensor (OFS), Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR), and an RGB-D camera. Finally, the robustness and effectiveness of the multi-sensor data fusion system based on the EKF algorithm are verified by field flights in unstructured, indoor, outdoor, and indoor and outdoor transition scenarios.
