One way could be to combine three or more line-of-sight measurements carried out from different locations at the same time and derive 3D displacement vectors. Automotive Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output Synthetic Aperture Radar (MIMO-SAR) systems are of interest for such monitoring applications as they can acquire line-of-sight displacement measurements with areal coverage and are associated with low cost and high flexibility. In this paper, we present a set of algorithms deriving 3D displacement vectors from line-of-sight displacement measurements while applying spatial and temporal least squares adjustments. We evaluated the algorithms on simulated data and tested them on experimentally acquired MIMO-SAR acquisitions. The results showed that especially spatial parametric and non-parametric least squares adjustments worked very well for typical displacements occurring in geomonitoring and structural monitoring (e.g. tilting, bending, oscillating, etc.). The simulations were confirmed by an experiment, where a corner cube was moved step-wise. The results show that acquisitions of off-the-shelf automotive-grade MIMO-SAR systems can be combined to derive 3D displacement vectors with high accuracy.","PeriodicalId":45494,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Geodesy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2023-02-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42871135","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}

Terrestrial laser scans suffer from random and systematic errors that degrade the quality of the point cloud. Even though the vast majority of systematic errors can be calibrated, remaining errors or errors that vary with time or temperature influence spatially neighboring points in the same way. Hence, correlations between the measurements exist. Considering area-based deformation analyses, these correlations have two effects: On the one hand, they reduce the effective number of measurements in the point cloud, which mainly influences the decision of whether the movement is significant or not. On the other hand, correlations caused by systematic errors in the scanner can lead to a misinterpretation as a deformation of the object. Within this study, we analyze the deformation of a concrete wall (9.50 m height, 50 m width), and we develop a workflow that avoids the misinterpretation of correlated measurements as deformations of the object. Therefore, we first calibrate the scanner to reduce the influence of systematic errors. Afterwards, we use the average of two-face measurements from several scanner stations to eliminate remaining systematic errors and correlated measurements. This study demonstrates that systematic effects can lead to errors of a few millimeters that are likely to be interpreted as small deformations, and it provides a strategy to avoid misinterpretation. Hence, it is inevitable either to model or to eliminate systematic errors of the scanner while performing a precise deformation analysis with a magnitude of a few millimeters.","PeriodicalId":45494,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Geodesy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2023-02-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42115164","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}

We have therefore estimated complete Bouguer anomalies and Moho whose results are evaluated with the terrestrial values. We validate the recently released satellite-only and high-degree combined GGMs over Ethiopia using terrestrial gravity data based on a statistical comparison of the Bouguer anomaly, its residual and Moho depth. The terrestrial-derived gravity anomaly is more accurately estimated by EIGEN6C4. The assessment against a recently conducted high resolution (∼3 km) terrestrial and airborne gravimetric survey over Ethiopia shows that EIGEN6C4/SGG_UGM_1 and 2 have the highest accuracy (∼3.28/3.27 mGal). However, the comparison with such data hardly discriminates the qualities of other GGMs that have or are truncated to the same degree and order. Whereas, the validation results of GGMs against terrestrial and airborne data are identical. EIGEN6C4, SGG_UGM_2, XGM2016, XGM2019e_2159/SGG_UGM_1 have the best quality, and the accuracy of associated Moho is 4.89/4.90 km, and this value changes to 4.98/4.91/5.51 km when the EGM08/ITSG_Grace2018s/GOCO06S are assessed.","PeriodicalId":45494,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Geodesy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2023-02-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47580428","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}

This procedure allows a statistical assessment of the estimated deformations. Typically, holistic geometric models approximate the scanned surfaces. Regarding this, the question arises on how discontinuities of the object’s surface resulting from e.g. single bricks or concrete blocks, influence the parameters of the approximating continuous surfaces and in further consequence the derived deformation. This issue is tackled in the following paper. B-spline surfaces are used to approximate the scanned point clouds. The approximation implies solving a Gauss–Markov-Model, thus allowing accounting for the measurements’ stochastic properties as well as propagating them on the surfaces’ control points. A parametric comparison of two B-spline surfaces can be made on the basis of these estimated control points. This approach is advantageous with regard to the transition of the space-continuous deformation analysis to a point-based task, thus ensuring the applicability of the well-established congruency model. The influence of the structure’s geometry on the surfaces’ control points is investigated using terrestrial laser scans of a clinker facade. Points measured in the joints are eliminated using an own developed segmentation approach. A comparison of the results obtained from segmented as well as from unsegmented laser scans for the B-spline approximation and the subsequent deformation analysis provides information about the structure-related influence. An aqueduct arc is used as measuring object in this study. For the intended comparison, data sets, which contain possible influences due to changes of the mechanical loads, are analysed.","PeriodicalId":45494,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Geodesy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2023-01-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42541801","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}

A realistic assessment of the accuracy of the navigation solution depends on the accurate modelling of inertial sensor errors. Sensor noise and biases contribute most to short-term navigation errors. For the latter, different models can be used, varying in complexity. This paper investigates how the use of two different models for the accelerometer bias affects the accuracy of the state estimate in an extended Kalman filter. For this purpose, the Allan variance technique is applied to a data sequence from a specific inertial sensor to identify and quantify the underlying noise processes. The estimated noise parameters are used to characterise a bias model for the accelerometers that in addition to the static bias model takes non-white noise processes of the inertial sensor under investigation into account. This detailed accelerometer bias model is compared to a classical modelling approach that only considers static biases. Both approaches are evaluated based on simulation studies for continuous and intermittent GNSS coverages. The results show no significant difference between the two modelling approaches in terms of horizontal position and attitude precision. Furthermore, the correctness of the accelerometer bias estimates is not significantly affected by the modelling approach. All in all, it can be concluded that a detailed bias model of the accelerometers does not outperform the classical modelling approach.","PeriodicalId":45494,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Geodesy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2023-01-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45383538","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}

Although sub-ppm instrumental accuracy is already feasible with state-of-the-art commercial technology, the practically attainable accuracy on distances over more than a few hundred meters is limited by uncertainties in estimating the integral refractive index along the propagation path, which often results in measurement errors of several ppm. This paper presents a new instrumental basis for high-accuracy multispectral EDM using an optical supercontinuum to enable dispersion-based inline refractivity compensation. Initial experiments performed on two spectrally filtered bands of 590 and 890 nm from the supercontinuum show measurement precision better than 0.05 mm over 50 m for an acquisition time of around 3 ms on the individual bands. This represents a comparable performance to our previously reported results on 5 cm by over a range of 3 orders of magnitude longer, which can still be improved by increasing the acquisition time. The preliminary results indicate a relative accuracy of about 0.1 mm at 50 m on each wavelength. Improvement is possible by calibration and by implementing a self-reference scheme that mitigates slow drifts caused by power-to-phase coupling. The results reported herein thus indicate that the presented approach can be further developed for achieving sub-ppm accuracy of refractivity compensated distance measurements on practically useful ranges and under outdoor conditions.","PeriodicalId":45494,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Geodesy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2023-01-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43696466","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}
