MAPPING OF THE POLYTECHNIC IBADAN USING AN UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLE (UAV)
Abstract
Acrial or satellite images are conventionally used for geospatial data collection
Jowever, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAY 5) are emerging as a suitable technology for
providing
very high spatial and temporal resolution data at a low cost. This paper aims to
show the
potential of using UAVs for mapping of The Polytechnic Ibadan. The whole workflow
is
introduced in the paper,, Quantitative and qualitative control of the UAV data
products were
performed, indicating that the obtained accuracies comply tw survey standards.
Moreover,
possible problems and further perspectives were also discussed. The results
demonstrate that
UAVs provide promising opportunities to create high resolution and highly accurate
orthophotos,
thus facilitating map creation and updatin
