Abstract
The use of an unmanned aerial system (UAS) – cameras and Lidar sensors mounted on an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV or ‘drone’) – to acquire geodata for mapping purposes has evolved beyond infancy and is now rapidly maturing. How will UAS mapping evolve in foreseeable future? To envisage where exactly UAS technology is heading, it is appropriate to start with the big picture before examining the details.
