Low-Cost Solution for Kinematic Mapping Using Spherical Camera and GNSS

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The use of spherical cameras for mapping purposes is a common application in surveying. Very expensive and high-quality cameras are used for surveying purposes and are supplemented by systems for determining their position. Cheap cameras, in most cases, only complement laser scanners, and the images are then used to color the laser point cloud. This article investigates the use of action cameras in combination with low-cost GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) equipment. The research involves the development of a methodology and software for georeferencing spherical images, created by the kinematic method, using GNSS RTK (Real-Time Kinematics) or PPK (Post-Processing Kinematics) coordinates. Testing was carried out in two case studies where the environment surveyed had varying properties. Considering that the images from the low-cost 360 camera are of lower quality, an artificial intelligence tool was used to improve the quality of the images. The point clouds from a low-cost device are compared with more accurate methods. One of them is the SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) method with the Faro Orbis device. The results in this work show sufficient accuracy and data quality for mapping purposes. Due to the very low price of the low-cost device used in this work, it is very easy to extend this method to practice.
