TS01F: SURVEYING BY DRONES - SESSION 1: THEORY, PRACTICE, AND STANDARDS [10556]Commission: 5, 6 & Standards Network
Chair: Dr. Mohamed Mostafa, Trimble Applanix, Canada
Rapporteur: Mr. Ryan Keenan, Chair FIG Commission 5, Australia
FIG would like to create a Standard for Surveying by Drones. This, and a second session will investigate the scope of this standards initiative. There are three key considerations. First technical details such as site and mission planning, data acquisition and processing, and map production must be considered. Second, operational best practices for surveying by drones such as payload and sensor choice for different applications, georeferencing of imaging sensors, data processing and map production best practices should be identified. The third key component is outreach and communication. The standard itself could take one of at least three possible forms: a FIG publication, a consortium of interested parties producing an ad-hoc standard, or an ISO standard. This first session will introduce the subject: Surveying by Drones - Theory, Practice, and Standards. A second session is organised around a panel discussion with experts.
