  • Visual Intelligence Releases iOne STKA for UAV Mapping Apps

    Visual Intelligence has announced that its iOne Software Sensor Tool Kit Architecture (iOne STKA) is available for purchase or licensing by manufacturers of unmanned airborne vehicles (UAVs) who want to deliver an integrated UAV/geospatial imaging solution to customers.

    Capturing high-resolution imagery for applications in engineering, construction, urban planning, military missions and other uses is a significant emerging market for UAV manufacturers, and Visual Intelligence’s iOne STKA makes it possible to bring high-resolution geospatial sensors to UAVs, the company said. By purchasing or licensing Visual Intelligence’s geospatial imaging platform, UAV companies can meet emerging demand for geoimaging solutions that combine the benefits of UAVs with the imaging capabilities of a geoimaging platform.

    iOne STKA provides the technology foundation to configure a variety of multi-purpose sensors, including miniaturized 2D/3D applications, for the emerging UVS and mobile/handheld markets. The iOne STKA received the Geospatial Forum 2013 World Technology Innovation in Sensors Award, is the first to be considered for NEANY’s Arrow UAV, and is field-proven by the commercial large-format 2D/oblique/3D multipurpose metric mapping systems iOne IMS, iOne Stereo, and iOne n-Oblique.

    With the iOne STKA, the same UAS/UAV sensor system architecture can be used for agricultural and forestry mapping, pipeline or corridor monitoring, utility assessments, aerial surveys, research, persistence surveillance and other metric 2D/3D professional applications. The iOne STKA is a modular multipurpose sensor platform reconfigurable for UAVs of any size. With the iOne STKA, UAV manufacturers are no longer limited to offer monolithic, single purpose DSLR type cameras. Using the iOne STKA technology, UAV end users can economically collect high-quality color or infrared NADIR, oblique, or video imagery as well as co-mount and co-register e.g., LiDAR and thermal sensors using the same system architecture.

    “By providing UAV manufacturers and end-users with one reliable and performing end-to-end standard digital sensor system solution for MANY applications, we are empowering our customers with a more efficient and standard technology foundation and paradigm to grow their business, enhance their products, and maximize their return,” said Visual Intelligence President and CEO Dr. Armando Guevara.

    At the core of the iOne STKA is Visual Intelligence’s Patented Advanced Retinal Camera Array (ARCA). Developed using open systems and object-oriented software engineering principles, the ARCA is “encapsulated” with a rich set of advanced proprietary software methods that integrate camera components. The ARCA enables the collection of different types of imagery, fused in one pass, producing low-cost, extremely accurate, high-resolution products. It also enables unprecedented array-based collection and functional scalability sensor fusion. The arrays made of these varied imaging devices perform like a single camera, producing one single metric, radiometrically and geometrically correct image, or set of co-registered and fused images; such as a Virtual Frame, of higher accuracy, resolution and quality than DSLR-based monolithic cameras.

    Adds Guevara, “UAV manufacturers can take advantage and offer bundled with the iOne sensors Visual Intelligence’s advanced computing technology for fast cloud-based basic and advanced actionable information product generation. As a fully automated solution (from the sensor to the cloud), the iOne STKA includes processing software that uses streamlined workflows and processes imagery faster with multicore/multithreaded/GPU computing technology, making it easy to quickly produce and analyze products in a device-content eCosystem environment. This technology/business model is designed to provide UAV manufacturers and users recurrent ROI.”

    UAVs built using sensors based on the iOne STKA have the following features and advantages:

    • Strong digital obsolescence resilience, extending the useable life of the system while improving operational efficiencies and reducing operating costs for an even better ROI.
    • In the field:
      • Collection scalability
      • Functional scalability
      • Sensor reconfiguration, e.g. increase collection or functionality as needed or per mission requirements.
    • Large cross-track and FOV collection through smaller aperture (ARCA enabled).
    • Ability to collect different sources of metric imagery that can be fused in one pass.
    • Sensor fusion: Ability to co-mount and co-register in a “small and tight packaging” the EO capability with any other EO or active sensor such as LiDAR, Thermal, IR, etc.

    The iOne STKA software architecture is normative across all ARCA-based products; that is, the software is the same for different array configurations or sizes. This reusable component approach yields economies of scale in the manufacturing and use of multipurpose UAV/sensor configurations.

  • On the Edge: Mapping from the Air with a UAV

    On the Edge: Mapping from the Air with a UAV

    Dave and Arnold Bansemer prepare the X100 for the survey.

    Surveying an open-pit mine can be a hazardous undertaking. To obtain accurate volume measurements, it is necessary to pick up edges, known in the industry as “toes and crests,” as well as heaps. These are important features, since they provide a way to verify the current shape of a mine; but in light of increasingly stringent safety regulations and penalties, some companies refuse to let the surveyor get too close to such areas. Surveying the site from the air is an effective solution to this challenge.

    It’s also a cost-effective solution. Namibian Mining Survey Services (NMSS) estimates that using an unmanned aerial system (UAS) can save more than 95 percent in mobilization costs, that is, bringing in resources from outside the country to conduct a lidar/photogrammetric survey. Believing UAS to be an important part of the future of surveying, NMSS had been investigating the technology for some time, and a recent project provided the perfect opportunity to try it out.

    NMSS selected the Gatewing X100 for the job based on a demo at a platinum mine, where the results closely tracked those of a previous lidar survey.

    The Project

    The project was to survey a portion of Abenab Mine, a vanadium-lead mine owned by South West Africa Company and located just west of Tsumeb. The mine had been closed in the 1960s, but feasibility studies were underway to see if it would be viable to reopen the operation. Mine management needed to know volumes of all waste and tailings dumps, slimes, dams, and open-pit excavations. The main pit was roughly circular, about 60 meters deep and 120 meters across. Two smaller pits were covered in fairly thick vegetation but had enough ground showing to provide an accurate shape.

    The survey area was approximately 100 hectares. The flying height was set at 150 meters in order to provide a ground separation distance of 5 centimeters. Ground control points (GCPs) were constructed from 1-meter lengths of masonite cut into 10-centimeter-wide strips; painted bright red, the strips were designed to provide 20 x 2 pixel coverage on the images. A total of 10 GCPs were set out in strategic positions covering a wide range of elevations, with points on top of the dumps, on undisturbed ground level, and in the pits. The points were fixed from existing control on the UTM34S coordinate system, by fast static techniques.

    Launching the X100

    Based on the Gatewing training received, basic photogrammetry principles and a few trials, NMSS determined that 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. was the best time to fly in order to avoid shadow. The flight area, including a previously surveyed area that would serve as a check, covered 140 hectares. Assuming favorable wind conditions, NMSS expected to cover the area on a single flight.

    Arriving on site at 7 a.m., Dave Bansemer of NMSS started setting out the GCPs while his colleague performed the fast static survey. By 10 a.m., all GCPs had been placed and fixed. Having identified a suitable take-off and landing spot (a farm road), they proceeded through the pre-flight and flight checklist, and then launched the X100 at 11 a.m.. After completing the flight in around 35 minutes, with some turbulence at the 150-meter flying altitude, the X100 landed safely, albeit short of the goal, in an open area.

    Once the data was downloaded, the team returned to Tsumeb to begin the processing. They started with the post-processing of the GCPs, and then moved to the coordinates obtained in the photo-control identification process. NMSS used Gatewing Stretchout Pro software for the photogrammetrical processing.

    After specifying the coordinate system and identifying the GCPs, number-crunching began; the processing ran for around seven hours before the final point cloud and orthomosaics were created. The mean horizontal error was 3 centimeters and the vertical error was 9 centimeters, well within the error budget.

    Results

    The first check was to see if all areas had been covered. NMSS then checked the point cloud against the previous survey. The tie-in was perfect. Some gaps in the point cloud seemed to correspond with tree canopy areas; to ensure complete accuracy, the team resurveyed a few areas using a spatial station.

    NMSS learned some important lessons from using UAV technology for survey, which Bansemer lists for the benefit of future users:

    • Make sure you have enough control. It is sometimes difficult to place your control points exactly in the corners of your flight and one in the center, as the actual flight is influenced by wind direction and the shape of the flight may change accordingly. Put down more points than recommended.
    • Make sure that your ground control point size is relevant to your flying height. You will not be able to identify a 10-centimeter wide strip if you fly at 300 meters.
    • Check the completeness of the job before you leave the area.
    • Make sure there is sufficient area for a safe landing. Bansemer recommends at least a 300-meter strip, taking obstacles into account in the event of a short landing.)

    Manufacturers

    The fast static techniques described were carried out with Trimble R6 GPS systems. Re-survey was done with the Trimble VX spatial station. The Gateway X100 is manufactured by Trimble.

  • Google’s 3D Mapping Phones Head to Developers

    Google’s 3D mapping project, Project Tango, is putting prototypes into developers’ hands.

    Google has been collaborating with universities, research labs, and industrial partners in nine countries, to concentrate the past 10 years of research in robotics and computer vision into a mobile phone. “We now have prototypes ready to put into the hands of eager development partners that can help us imagine the possibilities and to transform those ideas into reality,” Google said on its Project Tango website.

    Google’s Advanced Technology and Projects group (ATAP) heads the project, which aims to make it possible to create a 3D model of the space around a smartphone. For instance, a user can map an area, such as a home, by walking around with the phone.

    Creation of 3D maps in this way would make it easy to navigate through buildings such as offices and supermarkets. Maps of a user’s home could also be used in games. As Google said on its website, “Imagine playing hide-and-seek in your house with your favorite game character, or transforming the hallways into a tree-lined path. Imagine competing against a friend for control over territories in your home with your own miniature army, or hiding secret virtual treasures in physical places around the world.”

    The current prototype is a 5-inch Android phone containing highly customized hardware and software designed to track the full 3D motion of the device as a user holds it, while simultaneously creating a map of the environment. These sensors allow the phone to make more than a quarter million 3D measurements every second, updating its position and orientation in real time, combining that data into a single 3D model of the space. The mapped space is matched to the phone’s internal gyroscopic systems and more general location data from GPS.
