Episode #39 Does Better Positioning Really Improve Mapping Accuracy
Description
Hosted by Eric Andelin CP, Senior Workflow Advisor at SimActive. With guest speaker, Mohamed M. R. Mustafa, Lead Technical Authority - Mobile Mapping at Trimble Applanix.
High-accuracy positioning systems, such as those developed by Applanix, are crucial for ensuring the quality of large-scale mapping projects utilizing new sensors and multi-sensor systems. When integrated into the aerial triangulation process, these systems assist photogrammetry software such as Correlator3D in generating high-quality map products like digital elevation models, orthomosaics, and 3D models.
Dr. Mohammed Mostafa, a technology expert in positioning systems, understands the complexities of integration with multiple sensor systems for mapping and 3D model creation. These positioning systems also offer a direct georeferencing option when a targeting approach using ground control is not a viable option. Dr. Mostafa joins us to share his expertise in these technologies and how Correlator3D enables optimal outcomes.
Specifically listeners will learn the following:
• Choosing the right positioning systems
• Understanding their integration with sensors
• Importing positional data into Correlator3D
• Quantifying achievable accuracies
