Your Drone Questions. Answered.YDQA: Ep 42 - "Is mm level accuracy possible when surveying railroad tracks with a drone?"Welcome back to another episode of "Your Drone Questions Answered" with John Dickow from Drone Launch Academy. Today's question comes from a client dealing with construction near railway lines, seeking precise measurements to ensure track stability during excavation. The client currently uses Trimble Total Station devices and wonders if drones could provide the required millimeter-level accuracy. Zachary Riddell, Southwest Business Development Manager and Certified Mapping Specialist at Cooper Aerial, joins the discussion.Zachary shares insights into the challenges of achieving millimeter accuracy with drones due to factors like motion, sensor limitations, and airborne GPS. He emphasizes...2023-12-2709 minThe GeoholicsEpisode 159 - Bill Swope, CP & Cody Condron, RPLS, PLS, CP, CMSIf you like to hear really smart people (excluding PS & DD) with common sense (including PS & DD) talk about all facets of mapping...this episode is for you!

3DMetrica | Rilievi e TopografiaEP107 - Quanti GCP per un rilievo aerofotogrammetrico? - con Mirko SaponaroQuanti GCP servono per un rilievo aerofotogrammetrico?
È una domanda frequente.
E la risposta non è banale.
Ne parliamo in questa puntata insieme a Mirko Saponaro, del Politecnico di Bari, commentando e scorrendo un articolo che ha pubblicato e riguarda proprio il legame tra l'accuratezza di un rilievo aerofotogrammetrico/Structure from Motion e il numero di GCP (Ground Control Point) usati nell'ottimizzazione dell'allineamento della nuvola sparsa.
Ecco qui sotto alcune risorse che Mirko mi ha condiviso.
