Still, some UAS-based geospatial remote sensing applications, such as airborne spectroscopy or laser scanning, require high accuracy pose (position and orientation) determination of the onboard sensor payload. This study presents ground-based experiments investigating the pose accuracy of two MEMS-based IMUs: the single-antennaMTi-G-700 (Xsens, Enschede, Netherlands) and the dual-antenna/dual-frequency Spatial Dual IMU (Advanced Navigation, Sydney, Australia)/global navigation satellite system (GNSS).A tightly coupled and postprocessed pose solution froma fiberoptic gyroscope (FOG)-based NovAtel synchronized position attitude navigation (SPAN) IMU (NovAtel, Calgary, Canada) served as a reference to evaluate the performance of the two IMUs under investigation. Results revealed a better position solution for the Spatial Dual, and the MTi-G-700 achieved a better roll/pitch accuracy. Most importantly, the heading solution from the dual-antenna configuration of the Spatial Dual was found to be more stable than the heading obtained with the reference SPANIMU.","PeriodicalId":210864,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Surveying Engineering-asce","volume":"171 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133601130","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The workflow of the multiview matching algorithm is designed, and the algorithm is based on motion analysis of sequence images in computer vision. To achieve a high multiview matching accuracy, camera lens distortion in sequence images is first corrected, and images can then be resampled. Image points on sequence images are extracted using the Harris operator. The homologous image points are then matched based on correlation coefficients and used to make a robust estimation for a fundamental matrix F between the two adjacent images using the random sample consensus (RANSAC) algorithm. The fundamental matrix F is calculated under the condition of epipolar line constraints. Finally, the trifocal tensor T of the three-view images is calculated to achieve highly accurate triplet image points. These triplet image points are then provided as the initial value for bundle adjustment. The algorithm was tested using a set of sequence images. The results demonstrate that the designed workflow is available and the algorithm is promising in terms of both accuracy and feasibility. DOI: 10.1061/(ASCE) SU.1943-5428.0000235.
