PPK is great but not for terrain following. You can't do terrain following w/o RTK fixed (you need high accuracy in RealTime, not Post-Processing). When RTK is not fixed the A/C is using barometric pressure for altitude. This is not accurate enough and too noisy for reliable conversion to HAE or orthometric height.
I should have asked that question first, it would have saved time.
Now that is interesting. I've done a lot of mapping on steep slopes with the DJI P3P and P4P, but using Map pilot. It's a great app that is easy to use, no importing, no ellipsoid, geoid. You just select terrain awareness and the app calculates it. No RTK, no PPK, just plain GNSS. And it came out well.
So I believe that with GCPs and good planning you don't need RTK. |
