Collecting information on traffic flows are important for provide high quality road system. At present, fixed camera is widely used for the monitoring system which covers limited area.  Therefore, the unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) such as quadrotor is developed for monitoring traffic flow since the UAV is responsive mobile sensing system. This development of UAV platform is a starting point for developed a highway traffic and management system which is in future can be enhance by connected the system with graphical user interface (GUI) on ground control station that can defined types of vehicles and analyze level of congestion. At present, the system that developed only transmits a real time video to ground control station without any interpretation by software that detects types of vehicles and analyzes traffic condition. Through the surveillance and monitoring of traffic flows that done at Engineering Campus, Universiti Sains Malaysia, the system provides suitable information for authorities to analyse level of congestion happened on the road and provide alternative solution for users in order to avoid the traffic jam.

Ground control station (GCS) is a system for controlling and monitoring unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). In current GCS, the device used are considered as complex environment. This paper proposes a video streaming and speech command control for supporting mixed reality based UAV GCS using Microsoft HoloLens. Video streaming will inform the UAV view and transmit the raw video to the HoloLens, while the HoloLens steers the UAV based on the displayed UAV field of view (FoV). Using the HoloLens Mixed Reality Tool-Kit (MRTK) speech input, UAV speech control from the HoloLens was successfully implemented. Finally, experimental results based on video streaming and speech command calculation of the throughput, round-time trip, latency and speech accuracy tests are discussed to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed scheme.

Metode Fotogrametri telah banyak digunakan dalam survei dan pemetaan. Seiring dengan kemajuan ilmu pengetahuan dan teknologi, metode fotogrametri saat ini berbasiskan pesawat tanpa awak atau yang lebih dikenal dengan UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle). Kelebihan metode fotogrametri berbasiskan UAV untuk pengukuran garis pantai adalah memiliki resolusi spasial yang sangat tinggi dan dapat menjagkau daerah-daerah yang sulit dan berbahaya. Di samping itu juga dapat memberikan data foto udara terkini dengan sekala detail. Dalam penelitian ini membandingkan ketelitian horisontal antara hasil pengukuran garis pantai menggunakan metode fotogrametri berbasiskan UAV secara rektifikasi dengan GCP (Ground Control Point) maupun secara PPK (Post Processed Kinematic) dengan pengukuran garis pantai metode GNSS RTK (Real Time Kinematic). Hasil perhitungan ketelitian horisontal mengacu pada standar publikasi IHO S-44 tentang pengukuran garis pantai. Pemotretan dilakukan dengan ketinggian terbang 180 m, dengan tampalan depan dan samping 80%. Hasil perhitungan ketelitian horisontal foto udara terektifikasi 5 GCP, foto udara PPK dan foto udara PPK terektifikasi 1 GCP terhadap pengukuran garis pantai dengan metode GNSS RTK diperoleh nilai standar deviasi (σ) dan 95% selang kepercayaan (CI95%) masing-masing sebagai berikut: σ5gcp=10,989 cm dengan CI95% 16.8 cm < μ < 21.2 cm , σppk=26,066 cm dengan CI95% 26.5 cm < μ < 37 cm dan σppk1gcp=10,378 cm dengan CI95% 15.6 cm < μ < 19.8 cm. Kemudian terdapat 10 objek tematik berdasarkan Peta Laut Nomor 1 yang dapat diinterpretasi pada hasil orthomosaic foto udara.

The majority of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) accidents can be directly related to human error. For this reason, standards and guidelines focusing on human factors have been published by various organizations such as Transport Canada, FAA, EASA, NASA and military agencies. The objective of this thesis is to present a methodology for designing a Ground Control Station (GCS) using available standards and guidelines for human factors. During the design process, a detailed analysis was performed using human factors methods to ensure all requirements were met; each phase of the design follows the guidelines presented in the compiled human factors standards and guidelines. The GCS interface was developed using advanced programming techniques and commercial off-the-shelf software. Moreover, an operator workload evaluation was carried out using NASA task load index for validation of design methodology. It was found that the applied methodology not only improved the pilot workload, but also ensured that all user and stakeholders’ requirements are met.
