Abstract

Recently, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have been widely used in our country and in the world. This is due to continuity, endurance, the ability to work under overload conditions and the exclusion of the human factor. In recent years, there has been a revolutionary leap in the development of UAVs, which made it possible to divide this market segment into completely different price categories. The increase in the use of UAVs has made this product really in demand and was able to introduce it into various areas of life. This also applies to geodetic measurements. Photogrammetry methods began to work closely with methods of easy-to-control unmanned aerial vehicles. But at the same time, the demand for filming equipment is growing, the pricing policy of which sometimes considerably exceeds the cost of the aircraft itself, which complicates photogrammetric work. This aspect has led to research on the possibility of using inexpensive non-professional cameras on UAVs for photogrammetry, due to obtaining accurate measurements. For such cameras, there is such a thing as calibration, which includes the definition of interior orientation elements. This article discusses the use of non-metric cameras on UAVs in order to reduce the cost of work to monitor agricultural land. The following materials were used as initial data in this work: test images from the UAV at the test site; software such as SAS.Planet, MatLAb, MdCockpit V2.6.2.6, PHOTOMOD. To perform this work, the following equipment was used: unmanned aerial vehicle; non-metric digital camera. To calibrate the camera, the terrain was surveyed using Zala 421-21.
