A total station is an angle measuring device, also known as a theodolite, integrated with an electronic distance measurement (EDM) unit. The integration provides the ability to measure horizontal and vertical angles as well as slope distances using the same device at the same time, which benefits the surveyor in terms of portability, convenience and speed. In this article you can find an overview…
Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) reduce the need for large crews, divers and vessels in the operational area. AUVs are already operational for bathymetric and environmental mapping, pipeline tracking and mine hunting, and there is a trend towards their use for inspection and environmental monitoring. When using non-tethered solutions, underwater communication becomes crucial for data transfer…
Drones (also known as Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) are used for various applications such as surveying, surveillance and habitat mapping. An interesting new application is precision agriculture. Drones can be used for precise crop-management, vegetation analysis, volume measurement, 3dmodels creation and many other uses. You can find a selection of 5 precision agriculture drones.
In this white paper, Aeroscout presents the key factors to generate highest grade LIDAR point clouds recorded by an UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle). Some typical mission scenarios are given in the beginning. Common limitations of the UAV are discussed in detail and possibilities to increase the quality of the data are summarized. Finally, important factors of the two special cases called power line…
A Golden Opportunity of New Age for Telecom Providers. In the past two years, 5G went onto the stage. Telecom providers are building 5G base stations all over the world, China Mobile is one of them that has built over 400,000 base stations in China. 5G related products are introduced to the global market as well. As for the GNSS industry, it’s also a breakthrough year. In the middle of 2020, the B…
