The research project “Development of a Mobile Mapping System for multi-purpose applications composed of a low-cost inertial measuring unit, a GNSS receiver and a close-range LIDAR” consists on considerations about the design of an aerial and a sensor platform, which can also be used separately. The aim of the project is the development of a measurement platform, which performs a direct scan of the Earth’s surface by means of measurements with a laser scanner supported by several sensors to determine their position. The geo-referencing of the data will initially take place in post-processing.
