autonomous UAS data

You import autonomous UAS data via a JobXML (.jxl) file that, in turn, causes the referenced photo (.jpg) files to be imported into the project. After import, you must perform a relative adjustment that uses automatically found tie points to adjust the photo stations relative to each other. To more precisely locate the station points on the ground, you will need to make photogrammetry measurements to ground control points (GCPs), which are accurately surveyed features (for example, targets), that are visible in multiple photos. You can then use the measured GCPs to provide the control necessary to perform an absolute adjustment to the ground. A camera calibration is included in the absolute adjustment process to provide the highest precision.

This type of UAS includes the Trimble Gatewing X100 and Trimble UX5.
