Sensor Orientation Courses

Sensor Orientation Courses
We are glad to announce the following two courses:

  • Sensor orientation: precise trajectory & attitude determination with INS >>>>> February/March 2011
    The course aims at teaching the fundamentals of INS/GPS trajectory and attitude determination for airborne sensors in the area of airborne photogrammetry and remote sensing. This activity provides a general description of inertial technology with an emphasis on its integration with GPS for its combined (INS/GPS) use in sensor orientation and calibration. Though the link with aerial triangulation and GPS trajectory determination is described, the module is neither a course on aerial triangulation nor a course on GPS kinematic positioning.

  • Sensor orientation: calibration & block adjustment >>>>> June 2011
    The course covers network adjustment for airborne sensor orientation and calibration from a modern perspective. Geodetic network adjustment is almost 200 years old. So far, it has survived all technology changes. Today, for instance, is a fundamental tool for sensor calibration in the INS/GPS direct orientation procedures. The course approaches network adjustment for sensor orientation and calibration in a way that participants will, afterwards, be able to apply the methodology to most imaging sensors: active and passive, from various imaging geometries, for research or for the production line.
