Autonomous aerial mapping for construction

- Abstract
High-quality maps are important in the construction industry for conducting site surveys and building inspections but existing acquisition methods can be expensive, time consuming and require expert human operators. These maps could be captured more efficiently and cost effectively by using an autonomous aerial mapping system. Some commercial systems already exist but the capabilities of existing research platforms are more limited. The paper presents Osprey, an autonomous aerial system capable of mapping large outdoor structures without human intervention.
