Intelligent inertial navigation systems for survey and mapping applications

Geospatial information is a valuable commodity in the modern world, with more and more being collected for use in a wide range of industries. The most efficient way is with a mobile system which can cover wide areas in short periods of time.

Whether the mode of collection is land-based, aerial, or marine, our robust GNSS-aided inertial navigation systems (INS) provide accurate georeferencing data around the world.

OxTS’ INS solutions are trusted by companies across a myriad of industries worldwide to capture precise measurements for survey and mapping applications.

OxTS Survey Products

OxTS Survey products have been developed to serve multiple applications, across a wide range of industries.

The RT3000 v4 INS is our flagship INS. Its highly accuracte, reliable measurements are ideal for mobile and manned aircraft mapping applications.
The OxTS xNAV650 INS is one of our smallest, lightest and most affordable INS to date. Despite its small size, which makes it ideal for UAV based mapping applications, the xNAV650 doesn’t compromise on performance.
OxTS Georeferencer and Boresight tool, is our own proprietary LiDAR georeferencing software solution. Using OxTS Georeferencer, surveyors can quickly and easily fuse the navigation data from their INS device with the raw LiDAR data from a wide range of LiDAR sensors to create a georeferenced pointcloud.
NAVsuite is a complimentary addition to every INS purchased from OxTS. The suite of applications allows users to configure, monitor, analyse and post-process their INS data.

Solution Brief: Land-based LiDAR Surveying

When architecting your own mobile mapping vehicle, possibly the most important aspect to get right is your source of localisation. It must enable you to accurately georeference your sensor data to a physical place on Earth.

This solution brief steps through the aspects that we recommend our customers consider when deciding on the source of localisation for their mobile mapping vehicles.

Read the solution brief to learn how why an OxTS GNSS/INS may be the right option for you.

Case Study: Southern Cross University

Southern Cross University Datasheet

Southern Cross University (SCU) is involved in a project to protect the Great Barrier Reef from the possible effects of climate change.

Part of the Cooling and Shading sub-program of the Reef Restoration and Adaption Program, SCU needed to measure wind speed from a moving platform. To do this accurately they had to combine the measurements from a sonic anemometer and IMU.

Case Study: Ordnance Survey

Ordnance Survey were in need of a quicker, scalable and more cost effective way to collect georeferenced pointcloud data.

They engaged with OxTS and local channel partner Datron Technology to understand what was achievable. As a result they were able to create highly accurate pointclouds and reduce costs all whilst improving the efficiency of their mobile mapping operations.

Case Study: Dronezone srl.

Dronezone Datasheet

OxTS Partner Dronezone Srl. were tasked with scanning an ageing railway bridge to identify potential weaknesses in its structure.

Once they made the decision to survey the bridge using a UAV, there were a number of challenges they faced, specifically around payload weight, flight time, data processing, pointcloud accuracy and more.

Read the case study to learn how they overcame them.

Case Study: Panpro Team

Panpro Team Datasheet

Panpro wanted to improve road safety by leveraging powerful integration of LiDAR with accurate georeferencing tools.

Using the OxTS’ xNAV650 INS alongside OxTS Georeferencer, Panpro were able to use LiDAR technology to provide clients with highly accurate driver sight distances on dangerous road networks in Serbia.
