EXPERIMENTAL STUDIES OF GEODETIC MONITORING ACCURACY OF UPPER SURFACE OF ENGINEERING OBJECTS AND CONSTRUCTIONS

The development of totally new methods for geodetic monitoring of engineering objects and con-structions in emergency state is a relevant scientific and technical task of geodesy. The results of such studies allow to ensure prompt and reliable data of the condition of a spatial object for the purpose of its safe exploitation. The article presents experimental studies of a quadcopter model according to the developed by the author method for geodetic monitoring of engineering objects and constructions based on the multi-agent system theory. The article describes the test model of quadcopter and mean square error calculation of elevation measurement in the laboratory conditions of the station. Based on the experiment results the article makes the conclusion about the possibility of measurement by the described method. The suggested method is possible in situations when measurements by man are im-possible and the object of geo-monitoring is an inaccessible place.
