METHODOLOGY FOR USING CONSUMER-GRADE UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLES FOR TERRITORY MAPPING IN THE ABSENCE OF GLOBAL NAVIGATION SATELLITE SYSTEM SIGNALS

 

Annotation. A methodology for generating cartographic information based on aerial surveying using commercially available unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) is presented, aimed at performing topographic and cadastral work under conditions of potential satellite navigation jamming. The methodology is structured into four sequential stages: task definition and analysis of source cartographic data with flight path planning and calculation of imaging parameters; execution of flight operations and geodetic orientation using ground control points, RTK/PPK, tacheometric surveying, and measures to mitigate the impact of GNSS absence; photogrammetric processing, georeferencing, and quality control; generation of an orthophotomap, digital elevation model, vector layers, and a document package for regulatory authorities. Key mathematical relationships for calculating spatial resolution, survey steps, frame intervals, and accuracy metrics are provided, along with practical recommendations for increasing overlaps and organizing backup procedures in conditions of satellite navigation signal jamming. The methodology ensures the reproducibility of work and compliance with regional regulations when using non-metric cameras and consumer-grade UAVs.

Keywords: aerial survey, UAV, spatial resolution, longitudinal overlap, lateral overlap, ground control points, orthophotomap, satellite signal jamming, tacheometry.
