Needs to study on distance measurement accuracy in aerial and satellite photogrammetry are rapidly increased. However, conventional studies show some confused definitions between measurement accuracy and measurement precision as well as standard deviation(STDEV) and root mean square error(RMSE or RMSD). So, Finite definitions of measurement accuracy and measurement precision as well as STDEV and RMSD are addressed in this paper. Experiment result show using correct definitions improve the distance measurement accuracy in aerial and satellite photogrammetry rapidly, but not the distance measurement accuracy in aerial and satellite photogrammetry.

The localization accuracy in wireless sensor networks using ranging-based localization algorithms is greatly influenced by the ranging accuracy. Software implementation of HAL(Hardware Abstraction Layer) and MAC(Medium Access Layer) should seamlessly deliver the raw performance of ranging-based localization provided by hardware capability fully to the applications without degrading the raw performance. This paper presents the design and implementation of the software stack for IEEE 802.15.4a which supports normal ranging mode of the Nanotron's NA5TR1 RF chip. The experiment results shows that average ranging error rate with our implementation is 24.5% for the normal mode of the SDS-TWR ranging scheme.

Two primary objectives of this study were to determine important personal factors in performing cognitive distance mapping, and to understand how human's cognitive distance mapping capabilities were influenced by reference and subjects' locations using Global Positioning System (GPS). Undergraduate and graduate students at the University of Kansas, USA were interviewed and surveyed throughout the campus area giving them a paper-and-pencil test. Study results showed that females had more accurate cognitive mapping capability than males regardless of ethnic background and academic levels. Generally, subjects with longer affiliation with the university, higher ages and academic levels had less variability in their mapping accuracy. Subjects tended to more accurately map the target locations closer to the reference points than those located farther away, and subjects who were closer to a reference point performed their distance mapping better than those farther away. A correlation analysis reported that male subjects used reference-to-target and subject-to-reference distances more sensitively than females to estimate the locations of the targets. This result indicates that males might have used the reference point-based map scale more strenuously than females.

This study deals with the measurement of reflectivity as well as the distance accuracy with Terrestrial Laser Scanner(TLS) using time of flight methods and near infrared wave length, for a variety of user-made targets. Especially, point clouds' reflection to several targets was measured with Gretag Macbeth il spectrophotometer in the office. And the distance accuracy in comparison to reference distance for TLS performance evaluation, was tested after scanning the user-made targets and measuring the inter-pillars distances over the precise EDM calibration baseline. The results of test was shown that except white resin objects, with approx. 10m and 170m inter-pillar distances, other targets achieved the distance accuracy of several millimeters(mm) with respect to standard distances. Future work should be concentrate on a few parameters influencing on the distance accuracy such as atmospheric correction, instrument correction, the additive constant or zero/index correction, etc.

GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) Position Accuracy depends on pseudo-range measurement and DOP (Dilution Of Precision) which indicates about navigation satellite geometry. Pseudo-Range has many error sources such as satellite clock, orbit, ionosphere, troposphere, multipath and so on. For the improvement of the accuracy, user can use corrected pseudo-range in DGPS (Differential Global Positioning System), which is one of the relative positioning methods. But, stationary station is needed in relative positioning. In case of DOP, Signal reception environment is important. If receiver sets in the center of city, it could be interrupted reception by buildings. This environment leads to decrease the number of visible satellites and to increase DOP. This paper proposes the concept of GNSS positioning with virtual satellites which have usable VRM (Virtual Range Measurement). Via virtual satellites and VRM, users could get an accurate position. Especially referred virtual satellites constellation has an effect on vertical error.

Precise 3D road geospatial information is the basic infrastructure for autonomous driving and is essential data for safe autonomous driving. MMS (Mobile Mapping System) is being used as equipment for road spatial information construction, and related research is being conducted. However, there are insufficient studies to analyze the effect of the baseline reference point distance, which is an important factor in the accuracy of the MMS outcome, on the accuracy of the outcome. Therefore, in this study, the accuracy of the data acquired using MMS by reference point distance was analyzed. Point cloud data was constructed using MMS for the road in the study site. For data processing, 4 data were constructed considering the distance from the reference point for MMS data, and the accuracy was analyzed by comparing the results of 12 checkpoints for accuracy evaluation. The accuracy of the MMS data showed a difference of -0.09 m to 0.11 m in the horizontal direction and 0.04 m to 0.19 m in the height direction. The error in the vertical direction was larger than that in the horizontal direction, and it was found that the accuracy decreased as the distance from the reference point increased. In addition, as the length of the road increases, the distance from the reference point may vary, so additional research is needed. If the accuracy evaluation of the method using multiple reference points is made in the future, it will be possible to present an effective method of using reference points for the construction of precise road spatial information.

Range-based real time localization systems require superior localization techniques as well as accurate ranging algorithms for better performance. To evaluate the ranging accuracy between two nodes in practical environments, this paper does not only present a qualitative analysis by computing a distance equation under SDS-TWR measurement model of no symmetry assumption, but also executes a quantitative evaluation by doing experiments after building up a test network employing the developed sensor node. Experimental results show that the ranging accuracy of the proposed implementation of IEEE 802.15.4a software stack is superior with smaller average error rate by 60% to one of the commercial Nanotron's reference development kit.

현재 실내 위치 인식 계산 알고리즘과 거리 측정 방법은 놀라울 정도로 다양하다. 그 중 거리를 측정하는 방법으로 마커를 이용한 방법과 RF(Radio Frequency)를 이용한 방법 등 여러 가지 방법들이 제안되었는데 본 논문에서는 사람이 이용하기 쉬운 RF를 이용한 위치 인식 성능 개선에 대해 다루고자 한다. RF 신호가 도달하는 시간을 이용하여 거리를 측정하는 TOA(Time of arrival) 방식을 사용하여 기준점과의 거리를 측정하고, 측정된 거리 값에 가중치를 이용해 장애물에 의한 오차를 보정하였다. 측정된 거리 값을 일정 개수를 모아 최빈값을 이용하여 정확도를 향상 시켰고 이를 통해 실내 좌표를 계산 하였다. 그리고 계산된 좌표 값에 칼만 필터를 적용하여 움직임을 보정하였다. 본 논문에서는 RF를 이용한 위치 인식 알고리즘을 제안하고 보정 전 데이터와 보정 후 데이터를 비교해 비컨 신호의 정확도를 확인하였다.
