3D MOBILE MAPPING WITH A LOW COST UAV SYSTEM [PDF]
The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2017 In order to accomplish the automatic mobile mapping task in a small area of interest, a low cost UAV system is proposed in this paper. Multiple sensors including a global shutter camera and an inertial measurement unit are calibrated and synchronized to

Efficient Continuous-Time SLAM for 3D Lidar-Based Online Mapping
, 2018 Modern 3D laser-range scanners have a high data rate, making online simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) computationally challenging. Recursive state estimation techniques are efficient but commit to a state estimate immediately after a new scan ...
