Abstract

Main subject of this paper is to investigate and evaluate methodologies for photogrammetric applications in geosciences, theoretically and practically, mainly focusing on systematic monitoring of surface mining areas. Its objective is to develop a technique adaptable to the particular characteristics of each application in order to efficiently meet the criteria of short time and low cost, but also of the required high frequency of application, as well as those of accuracy of the end products. Several methods for surface monitoring in mines have been developed. In particular, key aspects of the whole process to be studied in detail are, the following: a) Regarding data collection, UAVs with integrated RGB cameras will be used for data capture, b) Careful flight planning and geometric configuration of image acquisition, depending on the morphology of the object of interest and accuracy requirements will be under consideration, c) SfM applications and the bundle adjustment method with self-calibration will be used in order to process the collected data, d) GCPs (ground control points), check points and GPS/IMU information will be used for evaluating the results and e) Volume calculation differences between areas of interest will be practically evaluated. The main need for aerial mapping applications in mines environment besides accuracy standards, cost minimization and speed of work is of course public safety and prevent the loss of life.
