Accurate Surveying with Small Unmanned Aerial Systems and V-map The V-Map team is always concerned about accuracy of their work. In this photo we show a comparison between GPS and Ortho Photo coordinates of 105 check points. The ortho photo was produced from 261 24MP aerial images with a GSD (Ground Sampling Distance) of 13mm.

What to do with those millions of triangles defining the geometry of an Urban Environment? Enter the Virtual Surveyor Tools. An all too often underestimated step in the workflow of a UAV mapping operation is the extraction of features of interest in vector format. Structure from Motion and Lidar give us unprecedented density in point […]
