Autonomous field measurement in outdoor areas using a mobile robot with RTK GNSS

摘要

In the paper is discussed using of RTK GNSS for a mobile robot navigation and georeferencing of currently measured data. There is introduced a concept of usage RTK GNSS equipment for 5DOF self-localization of mobile robot. A simple but robust method for navigation of mobile robot to waypoints in area is described. In a conclusion there are shown results of using RTK GNSS with proposed navigation method. Presented algorithms are prepared for autonomous mobile mapping projects - field measurements in outdoor environments.
