Geospatial World interview on digitalization and innovation in the geospatial industry

March 2021, Mao Xunye, Vice President of Global Sales at CHCNAV, was invited by Geospatial World to discuss digitalization and innovation in the geospatial industry. Interview Highlights The characteristics of the AEC industry today As geospatial technology manufacture, we gradually began to emphasize how well the technology interacts with users and how users quickly master technology. For instance, when talking about GNSS RTK in the past, we always focused on higher accuracy, more channels and longer radio distance. However, we leverage technology to increase productivity and quality right now. Our cloud-based technology is moving companies from manual, paper-based workflows to integrated, digital processes. These technologies are changing the game for the survey and construction industries, enabling infrastructure projects to be completed more efficiently and effectively – and to last longer than ever before. The future of the high-precision technology In the future, the software will work out the optimal process once surveyors set an objective. The technology will get users friendlier. With AI and advanced wireless tech, the surveyor will talk with the device. The new super cities will be like a human body, with sensors and feedback systems. As a result, 5G, Internet of Things (IoT), AI, Autonomy and Robotics will be standard. The direction of new infrastructure development The new infrastructure design needs to take demographics into account. Infrastructure should be more convenient, with better interfaces, visual aids, as well as faster medical response times. Remote collaboration, Augmented Reality and Big Geodata can help in modeling how businesses and residential complexes will use an area, which will help in designing the most efficient infrastructure. Geospatial surveying can create a digital model of physical Earth, which provides enhanced spatial intelligence and awareness whether you are working in utilities, mapping, cadastral survey, or infrastructure development.

CHC Navigation introduces the AlphaAir 450 LiDAR System

The lightest, most accurate and cost-effective UAV LiDAR system in its class. Shanghai, China - March 22, 2021 - CHC Navigation (CHCNAV) announced the release of the AlphaAir 450 (AA450) LiDAR system. The AlphaAir 450 is a very lightweight and compact all-in-one sensor. Featuring internal IMU, GNSS, 3D scanner and camera, the AlphaAir 450 solution is widely used for power line inspection, topographic mapping, emergency response, agricultural and forestry surveys, and more. The unit is easy to use, and it is allowed for rapid deployment in the field. "Despite the fact that the LiDAR scanning is an efficient technology to capture 3D data, it still often remains costly and complex to operate," said Andrei Gorb, Product Manager of CHC Navigation's Mobile Mapping Division. " Taking that into account, we introduce the AlphaAir 450 (AA450), a breakthrough LiDAR scanner, that delivers user-friendly and high-accuracy capabilities at a reasonable price.” There are three key aspects of the AlphaAir 450 that quickly created a buzz in the drone users’ community as a new solution for capturing geospatial data: Lightest unit in its class - With this new compact and lightweight solution that can be easily mounted on UAVs, data capture has become faster and more efficient. The LiDAR's weight is a constraint for any drone. The AlphaAir 450 weighs 1 kg, which is perfectly suited to the drones' payload requirements. The lighter the unit, the longer the operating time of the drone, and the greater the productivity. Advanced Accuracy - By combining industrial grade GNSS with a high precision IMU, the AlphaAir 450 can easily achieve an absolute accuracy of 5 cm (vertical) and 10 cm (horizontal) for small survey areas, which is typically adequate for the most use cases. To further improve precision and accuracy, users can apply adjustment algorithms in the CHCNAV CoPre software. Industrial Reliability - Featuring IP64 high-level protection, the AlphaAir 450 extends its operating temperature capabilities, down to -20℃ and up to +50℃, in any field environment and increases users' return on investment by providing more field survey days in a year.

CHCNAV GNSS used in Turkish Research Project

The Research Project The CHCNAV’s i50 GNSS smart antenna and N72 GNSS reference station have been used by Turkish researchers in their study about the “Analysis of the contribution of multi-GNSS to long-distance RTK.” The effects of baseline length on GNSS position accuracy GNSS, as it is commonly referred to, is the acronym for Global Navigation Satellite System, which can provide users with a fast, economical and reliable positioning service with global coverage. With the introduction of the RTK technology, GNSS has become a practical tool for real-time and accurate positioning in many engineering applications. However, the accuracy of GNSS RTK measurements depends on the baseline length between the GNSS reference station and the GNSS rover. With new emerging satellite systems such as GALILEO and BEIDOU, it is possible to explore the potential impact of multi-GNSS on the long baseline RTK accuracy. An 80 km baseline used for the GNSS RTK research project A field trial was conducted on an 80 km baseline using different combinations of satellite constellations with the CHCNAV i50 and N72 GNSS* receivers. Researchers performed two surveys - a one-hour RTK survey and a five-hour static GNSS survey - on the rovers and reference stations respectively. Both the CHCNAV’s i50 and N72 GNSS receivers can record continuous GNSS raw data observations. With the capability to track the signal of all available GNSS systems, they were able to evaluate various satellite constellations mix. The GNSS RTCM corrections were transmitted over the NTRIP protocol (Networked Transport of RTCM via Internet Protocol) with a GSM data link. In practice, CHCNAV provides additional proprietary APIS and standard TCP protocols, using the data controller's Internet access or the internal 4G network data link of the receivers as desired. Multi-constellations GNSS enables centimeter accuracy at long distances The tests results demonstrated that an accuracy of +/- 5 cm horizontally and +/- 10 cm vertically can be achieved. Moreover, under open sky conditions, with sufficient numbers of satellites in view, the different mix of GNSS configurations gave almost identical results. The paper was published on the Intercontinental Geoinformation Days (IGD) in November 2020 and is available for download at https://zcu.io/zgHD The N72 GNSS reference station is now replaced by the P5E or P2 GNSS receivers.
