Global Positioning

The Global Positioning System (GPS) offers an absolute positioning accuracy of 15 to 100 metres. Inertial navigation complements GPS in that it provides relative positioning and is totally self-contained. These two positioning sensors are ideally suited for system integration for although there is not necessarily an improvement in accuracy, the integration of GPS with inertial navigation systems (INS) does enable an increase in system performance.

Topographical Mapping

The mathematical formulation used in the photogrammetric block adjustment program SPACE-M has recently been extended to accommodate auxiliary airborne sensor data corresponding to the position and/or attitude of the aerial camera at the time of film exposure. Examples of such systems are statoscopes, laser profilometers, Inertial Navigation Systems (INS) and the Global Positioning System (GPS). The description of the use of these auxiliary data in SPACE-M is outlined and references are given to other related formulations. Test results with simulated and limited real data are presented with some analysis of the implications for topographical mapping and other applications.
