Types of Global Positioning System Surveys

252
GPS surveying methods vary in application, accuracy, and data collection techniques, catering to diverse surveying and mapping needs. Static GPS, kinematic GPS, and real-time kinematic (RTK) surveying are widely used. Each technique offers distinct advantages.Static GPS involves placing one receiver at a known reference point and another at the target point. It collects exact positional data by observing multiple satellite ranges over an extended period, achieving centimeter-level accuracy for...

Errors in Global Positioning System

260
Global Positioning System (GPS) technology has revolutionized navigation and positioning, but its accuracy is often compromised by various errors. These errors, stemming from environmental, satellite, and receiver-related factors, require careful mitigation to ensure reliable performance across applications.Atmospheric ErrorsGPS signals travel through the Earth’s ionosphere and troposphere, introducing delays which affect accuracy. The ionosphere is strongly influenced by charged particles,...

Electronic Distance Measuring Instruments

384
Electronic Distance Measuring Instruments (EDMs) are essential tools in modern surveying, offering precise distance measurements by emitting electromagnetic signals and calculating the time required for these signals to travel to a target and return. Two primary types of signals are used in EDMs — light waves and microwaves — each suited to specific environmental and distance requirements. Light-wave-based EDMs utilize either infrared or laser light, providing high accuracy over...

Receiver Operating Characteristic Plot01:15

Receiver Operating Characteristic Plot

434
A ROC (Receiver Operating Characteristic) plot is a graphical tool used to assess the performance of a binary classification model by illustrating the trade-off between sensitivity (true positive rate) and specificity (false positive rate). By plotting sensitivity against 1 - specificity across various threshold settings, the ROC curve shows how well the model distinguishes between classes, with a curve closer to the top-left corner indicating a more accurate model. The area under the ROC curve...

Background:

  • Global Positioning System (GPS) lacks precision for indoor environments.

Main Methods:

  • Developed a multi-channel ranging localization algorithm leveraging signal diversity.
  • Established a novel multi-objective evolutionary model for optimal multi-channel trilateration.
  • Implemented a three-edge constraint to avoid local optima in traditional algorithms.

Main Results:

  • The proposed OMCT algorithm demonstrated consistently smaller positioning errors compared to state-of-the-art methods.
  • Performance remained superior regardless of variations in channel number and multipath effects.
