GeoTagZ
Centimetre-level ground precision using UAVs
GeoTagZ enables a revolutionary new way of
surveying. Using GeoTagZ in combination with the
AsteRx-m UAS receiver, it is now possible to obtain
centimetre-level RTK precision from aerial survey.
Using UAVs dramatically reduces time and cost in
comparison to traditional methods.
Giving aerial survey the edge
The benets to you in using GeoTagZ are:
No need for ground control points
No need for real-time RTK corrections
GeoTagZ output provides direct input for image
processing software
Increase productivity
Ground control points link aerial imagery to accurate
location coordinates on the ground. However, setting
out and surveying the position of ground control
points is time consuming and expensive. In addition,
ground surveys of mines, freshly reclaimed land and
other geographically challenging locations may be
hazardous if not impossible. GeoTagZ eectively
removes the need for ground control point by
updating the aerial photographs with high precision
camera locations.

Setup, Power up and Fly
As small as a credit card, the AsteRx-m UAS is
Septentrios smallest and most ecient OEM receiver
board. Easy to integrate, it delivers precise
dual-frequency, dual-constellation measurements for
less than 700 mW giving you more time in the air.
Time stamped for accuracy
As well as logging GNSS data, the AsteRx-m UAS logs
time-stamped, shutter-synchronised events from the
on-board camera during aerial survey. It is these
events that are used by GeoTagZ to embed RTK-level
camera locations into the images.
Ready for processing
Whether using the updated photographs with
embedded RTK-level positions or the position data in
CSV format, the output of GeoTagZ provides direct
input for image processing software.
