HELIMAP: Rapid Large Scale Mapping Using Handheld LiDAR/CCD/GPS/INS Sensors on Helicopters.

Skaloud, J.Vallet, J.Keller, K.Veyssière, G.Kölbl, O.2005-11-172005-11-172005-11-172005https://infoscience.epfl.ch/handle/20.500.14299/220097The HELIMAP is a portable mapping system for quick helicopter deployment. It integrates high accuracy navigation sensors (GPS/INS) with Airborne Laser Scanner (ALS) and high-resolution digital (CCD) camera. This paper presents the system hardware and software components, system calibration and a road map from acquisition to mapping product.topomappHELIMAP: Rapid Large Scale Mapping Using Handheld LiDAR/CCD/GPS/INS Sensors on Helicopters.text::conference output::conference proceedings::conference paper
