In the paper a field base for testing the accuracy of positioning unmanned aerial vehicles has been presented, as well as a set of basic tests allowing to define the parameters of accuracy in particular mission scenarios. This result is most likely related to the systematic shift of the UAV coordinates determined using GNSS technology. When calculating these parameters, such systematic errors are eliminated. This thesis is confirmed by the results for distance deviation and repeatability.. [more] |
