The FGCS Airborne Kinematic Test 1995 : Leica Result from SKI Software and Photogrammetric Block Adjustment Program

Joan Yau

Abstract:	The FGCS airborne kinematic test data collected by Leica System 300 SR399E dual frequency receiver was processed with Leica’s SKI software (Static Kinematic GPS post-processing software). Various methods of computation were used which include conventional airborne kinematic processing with fixed ambiguities, computation with float ambiguity values, and P code processing based on Ll pseudorange measurement. Some of these processing techniques were computed using base station over 170 km away, as well as base stations in project area. Result using Precise ephemeris was also compared to those from Broadcast orbit, This paper describes the result on various scenarios and processing methods. Furthermore, the GPS result was integrated into Photogramrnetric Block Adjustment Package with different weights on GPS result and photo ground control stations. After all, we are not differentiating GPS result from Photogrammetric Result, but a complete solution which utilizes both techniques.
