CV software algorithms rely on extracting, describing, and matching tie points from the sequences overlapping images to generate 3D colored point clouds. One of the biggest problems obstructing the automated processing of UAV imagery is the featureless of the covered surface. This paper has provided the ability, results, and accuracy of processing images captured by UAVs over non-textured sandy surfaces by providing four aligning and geo-referencing techniques. These four methods, IG/blind matching, IG/reference matching, DG/blind matching, and DG/reference matching, have been presented and tested for 630 aerial images with 80 % overlap and 80 % side lap covered approximately 1 km2 at altitude 178 m above ground level (AGL). The results showed that the captured images could be used to extract the photogrammetric topographical measurements with reliable accuracy. The four techniques' geometric accuracy has ranged between (0.043 m to 0.076 m) & (0.047 m to 0.074) for generated point clouds and linear exterior orientation (EO) parameters, respectively. The indirect geo-referencing with reference matching (IG/reference) recorded the highest-level accuracy of point clouds with 0.043m RMSE compared to the direct geo-referencing with reference matching (DG/reference) which gave the highest geometric accuracy of the linear EO parameters with 0.047m","PeriodicalId":179458,"journal":{"name":"MEJ.

Both micro-genetic algorithm and hydraulic simulation of water network are used to find the optimal diameters of pipes of the network. The single-objective function of the optimization problem is the total cost of the capital costs of the piping network and the pump, and the operating cost of the pump, under the fulfillment of minimum nodal pressure requirements. An optimization methodology, Genetic Algorithm for Pumps (GAPUMPS), is used to minimize energy consumption. The described procedure is demonstrated in four case studies for water distribution networks with or without pumps. Three case studies are already established in the literature as traditional benchmark networks: the two-loop network, the three-loop network without pump, and the three-loop network with centrifugal pump. The results showed good agreement with the literature. The micro-genetic algorithm used in this study obtained better, or at least similar, optimal costs in the number of function evaluations compared with those of other evolutionary algorithms reported in the literature.","PeriodicalId":179458,"journal":{"name":"MEJ.
