GeoMonday 2015.3 – Impressions

11. October 2015 by

Hosted at the scenic location in the center of Potsdam, close to the river Havel, this 3rd GeoMonday turned out to be a really nice occasion for all drone enthusiasts. Our first outdoor hands on session was blessed with rays of sunlight from a Indian summer sun.

Thanks again to the interested audience and to all of our fantastic speakers.

The session was kicked-off with the live data collection session using a smart drone, presented by Arno Fischer,  professor at the University of Applied Sciences Brandenburg.

Here is the spectacular video from our session ground:

Immediately afterwards Frank Neitzel, professor at the Technical University (TU) Berlin, told us how to build a drone from very affordable components and get the system working.

Our third speaker of the evening was Martin Scholl. In his presentation he gave insights of a project equal to OpenStreetMap, the OpenAerialMap in order to create aerial views of the world:

The closing session was held by Christian Janke, Research Engineer at the European Aviation Security
Center (EASC) in Germany. He spoke about the chances and challenges of unmanned aviation.

GeoMonday 2015.3 – A practical guide to use drones

28. August 2015 by

fhb_logo_neuIn this presentation it is shown a complete workflow for 3D-Reconstruction using a civil drone and getting structure-from-motion (SFM) technologies. Security issues and legal aspects are also considered.

The following questions and actions are discussed and
performed:

  • what is the minimum set for a drone mission (Hardware and Software Requirements)
  • basics for flying a drone, Safety and Security and legal aspects
  • basics to prepare an autonomous flight
  • concrete steps to prepare and fly the mission
  • how to process the data (image data)
    • e.g. how to get still images from a video stream and more
  • practical aspects about photogrammetry, especially stereo photogrammetry
  • define the workflow for 3D reconstruction using commercial software.

Fischer-mit-DrohneArno Fischer is a Professor for Operating Systems and Computer Networks at the University of Applied Sciences Brandenburg (FHB). He has been working on drone technologies: Anticollision Systems (Detect and Avoid), Attitude Control, Safety and Security for Drones, Civil Applications and Use Cases with Drones and Teaching Concepts. On Behalf of FHB he is member of UAV-DACH and DIN (NA 131-01-01 AA Arbeitsausschuss Unbemannte Luftfahrtsysteme).

GeoMonday 2015.3 – A new dimension in Geo

29. July 2015 by

Intro

One of the most discussed topic of the recent years is the rise of UAVs, MAVs, RPVs or simply drones. These flying devices are equipped in their latest evolutions not only with full HD cameras, but also GPS devices and even small computers. This equipment is the base for next generation aerial geo-data and services. In the 3rd edition of GeoMonday we will cover the whole lifecycle from the creation, processing up to the integration for location intelligence or services. It’s a special pleasure for us to have our session for the first time in the beautiful city center of Potsdam, thanks to our Partner Zukunftsagentur Brandenburg.

Agenda:

When: Monday September 14th, 2015, starting 6pm sharp
Where: arcona Hotel am Havelufer, Zeppelinstraße 136, 14471 Potsdam
