We\u2019re\u00a0all familiar with the idea that as hardware gets older, its performance starts to dip. We see it with mobile phones, computers,\u00a0and cars\u00a0\u2013\u00a0which is partly why we\u00a0maintain\u00a0cars through services and MOTs.\u00a0<\/h5>\n\n\n
\n

In this blog we are talking about the equivalent of an MOT and service for your inertial navigation\u00a0system: a calibration. Calibrations are an important part of your hardware\u2019s\u00a0lifecycle, and\u00a0shouldn\u2019t\u00a0be ignored if you want to ensure that your GNSS\/INS continues to perform.\u00a0We\u2019ll\u00a0cover why calibrations are needed, and what types of calibration OXTS offers.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n \n <\/div>\n\n\n

Why <\/span>is INS calibration important?<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/h4>\n

Just like any other piece of hardware, over time the performance of a GNSS\/INS can start to deviate from what you expect.\u00a0When\u00a0you\u2019re\u00a0taking measurements that are\u00a0accurate\u00a0to tenths of a degree, or to the centimetre, even small deviations from expected performance can introduce errors into your data\u00a0that affect your overall outcomes.<\/span><\/p>\n

OXTS calibrations<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/h4>\n

OXTS\u00a0offers a few different calibration services. One\u00a0important difference\u00a0about our calibrations, compared to those done by third parties, is that ours include adjustments.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Other calibration services will certify the level of accuracy that your GNSS\/INS can achieve at that point in time. This means that you can ensure your data is valid, but you\u00a0can\u2019t\u00a0stop the degradation in performance.\u00a0<\/span>OXTS actively adjusts your components so that your GNSS\/INS\u00a0continues to perform at the highest level possible.<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Our calibration services include:<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
– Standard IMU calibration\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/h6>\n

This is a quick calibration that ensures the IMU inside your GNSS\/INS performs within its specification. This is ideal for most users who want to ensure optimum performance from their device.<\/span><\/p>\n

– SuperCAL calibration<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/h6>\n<\/blockquote>\n

This calibration reduces the linearity of the gyros in the inertial measurement unit to 0.05%. It is designed for highly dynamic use cases where\u00a0high levels\u00a0of accuracy are\u00a0required.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
– ISO 17025 IMU calibration\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/h6>\n

This calibration\u00a0ensures\u00a0that the IMU inside\u00a0your GNSS\/INS\u00a0meets\u00a0BS EN ISO\/IEC 17025:2017\u00a0standards.\u00a0It\u2019s\u00a0for anyone who needs to know their results conform to\u00a0(and are traceable to) the highest standards.<\/span><\/p>\n

– ISO 17025 speed calibration<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/h6>\n

This calibration tests that the speed output of your GNSS\/INS is\u00a0accurate\u00a0and traceable to BS EN ISO\/IEC 17025:2017 standards.\u00a0We are one of only a few organisations offering calibration of\u00a0the whole GNSS\/INS system, rather than just the IMU.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n \n <\/div>\n\n\n

Boresight calibration\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/h4>\n

Though\u00a0it\u2019s\u00a0not a calibration of a GNSS\/INS, our boresight calibration\u00a0tool\u00a0is also worth a mention here. Boresight calibration is vital for anyone using a GNSS\/INS and a LiDAR together. It precisely aligns the coordinate frames of the two sensors, ensuring that the\u00a0final point\u00a0cloud produced is\u00a0crystal clear\u00a0and\u00a0accurate.<\/span><\/p>\n

Calibrate to stay great<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/h4>\n

By getting your\u00a0GNSS\/INS calibrated every two years,\u00a0you can ensure that its performance stays at the levels you need to do your work effectively\u00a0\u2013 getting more\u00a0value from your\u00a0initial\u00a0investment.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Coming back to OXTS for your GNSS\/INS calibration offers\u00a0a number of\u00a0advantages\u00a0compared to using third parties:<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  • We offer calibrations that others\u00a0don\u2019t, including speed calibrations and ISO 17025 calibrations.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
      \n
    • We\u00a0don\u2019t\u00a0just benchmark the current performance of your device \u2013 we\u00a0make adjustments to\u00a0return your GNSS\/INS to its original specification.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
    • We know our hardware better than anyone else, so we can get the best results out of it.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n \n <\/div>\n\n\n
