UAV or drone application of autonomy ranging can be divided into several levels, from basic hovering and position over trajectory tracking and waypoint navigation to fully autonomous navigation. This study used the DroneDeploy application for an autonomous flight mission. It is the process of taking photographs from an aircraft or other flying objects with a camera mounted on them to produce a three-dimensional (3D) map from the images captured, including a digital terrain model (DTM) and orthophotos. As for this study, the same output will be generated, but different flight parameter applications were used. Therefore, the study determined the optimum number of ground control points (GCPs) and evaluated the accuracy of the final results for each flight design. Acquired data were processed using the Pix4D modeller software due to the user-friendly factor and faster processing rate offered by the software. The results were analysed, and recommendations were made for future study improvement and to avoid similar problems. This study is useful for the mapping industry to achieve high accuracy results.  Keywords: Aerial photogrammetry, Flight Parameter, UAV apps, DTM, Orthophotos, GCPs

Aiming at the folds caused by the sparse data in the process of DTM (Digital Terrain Model), this article proposed a method of interpolating spatial control points based on Delaunay triangulation and Kriging interpolation algorithm. The terrain data of an area with complex terrain in Xianyang was used to construct terrain model according to the proposed algorithm. Experimental results show that the method can finish the interpolation of the terrain denser data quickly and accurately, and it provides an efficient technological tool for building a true three-dimensional terrain model.

Precision agriculture recommends a sustainable employment of nutrients and water, according to the site-specific crop requirements. In this context, the knowledge of soil characteristics allows to appropriately manage resources. Even the topography can influence the spatial distribution of the water on a field. This work focuses on the production of high-resolution Digital Terrain Model (DTM) in agriculture by photogrammetric processing fisheye images, acquired with very light Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV). Particular attention is given to the data processing procedures and to the assessment of the quality of the results, considering the peculiarity of the acquired images. An experimental test has been carried out on a vineyard located in Monzambano, Northern Italy, through photogrammetric survey with Parrot Bebop 2 UAV. It has been realized at the end of the vegetation season, to investigate the ground without any impediment due to the presence of leaves or branches. In addition, the survey has been used for evaluating the performance of Bebop fisheye camera in viticulture. Different flight strategies have been tested, together with different Ground Control Points (GCPs) and Check Points (CPs) configurations and software packages. The computed DTMs have been compared with a reference model obtained through Kriging interpolation of GNSS-RTK measurements. Residuals on CPs are of the order of 0.06 m, for all the considered scenarios, that for agricultural applications is by far sufficient. The photogrammetric DTMs show a good agreement with the reference one.

The development of science always depends on technological progress. Cartography is rapidly changing and developing with the introduction of new computer technologies, such as GIS and remote sensing of the Earth. Recently, there have been qualitatively new types of cartographic products, in particular 3D terrain models, which in cartography are becoming a universal, optimal and operational method for displaying terrain. The article discusses a method for creating a three-dimensional digital terrain model in the form of an irregular triangulation network based on SRTM data and GIS technology on the example of the Khenti aimag of Eastern Mongolia.

Research the structure changes before and after collapsible experiment of loess microstructure. Using artificial preparation methods prepared different moisture samples of Liaoxi loess. Do collapsible test and Scanning electron microscope test with the prepared samples. According to Digital Terrain Model theory, three-dimensional porosities were calculated based on gray scale information from the SEM images extracted by MATLAB. The results are shown following as: the microstructure of loess samples is getting dense, the average number of pore of samples obviously increases and the pore area decreases after the sample is collapsed. The distribution before and after the collapsibility of gray value has certain regularity. The before one has double peaks, large distribution. The after one has single peak, concentrate distribution and meets normal distribution.

The practical implementation of the possibilities of using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in carrying out geoarchaeological mapping of the Sukhotinsky geoarchaeological region is shown. The object of the study is the Sukhotinsky geoarchaeological region (Eastern Transbaikalia), associated with the source of mineral raw materials - the Titovskaya Sopka paleovolcano. The aim of the study is to create orthophotomap and digital terrain model specified. The objectives of the study included geoarchaeological mapping of the territory of the study area using modern hardware and software methods using algorithms for reconstructing a three-dimensional scene from photographs, such as structure from motion (SfM), adapted to the tasks of geoarcheology and mapping of volcanics, as well as the products of their contact metamorphism; coordination of ground control points’ network and marking of their location in a way that allows them to be identified from photographs taken by UAVs; realization of aerial photography of the area under consideration, using UAVs;implementation of algorithms for photogrammetric processing of images using the SfM method with obtaining a spatially-oriented dense cloud of terrain points; post-processing of a dense cloud of points with obtaining a three-dimensional terrain model and a high spatial resolution orthophotomap. The relevance of the work lies in the practical implementation of modern GNNS technologies using an unmanned aerial vehicle for mapping geoarchaeological objects. Analysis and interpretation of high-resolution images taken from UAVs and other digital and cartographic materials, processing and digitization of images were taken as research methods. An orthophotomap and a digital terrain model were created and analyzed. Areas of microrelief change were revealed. The theoretical and practical significance of the study consists in creating an orthophotomap and a digital terrain model of the Sukhotinsky geoarchaeological region using modern hardware and a UAV, representing a digital geoarchaeological mapping of archaeological sites, including all hypsometric levels and outcrops of mineral raw materials on an area of 2,4 km²
