Akhtman, YosefGarg, AbhinavSkaloud, Jan2011-09-212011-09-212011-09-212011https://infoscience.epfl.ch/handle/20.500.14299/71017We carry out a comprehensive feasibility study for a real-time cm-level localisation of a predefined terrestrial target from a MAV-based autonomous platform. Specifically, we conduct an error propagation analysis which quantifies all potential error sources, and accounts for their respective contribution to the final result. Furthermore, we provide a description of a practical MAV system using the available technology and of-the-shelf components. We demonstrate that, indeed, the desired localisation precision of a few centimetres may be realistically achieved under a set of necessary constraints.UAVsMAVsPhotogrammetrySensor OrientationDirect Georeferencingtopomapptext::conference output::conference proceedings::conference paper
