High Precision Navigation: Integration of Navigational and Geodetic Methods

Klaus Linkwitz

Ulrich Hangleiter

The book is based on an international workshop on High Precision Navigation. The reader will find a wealth of information on - satellite navigation systems and their geodetic applications, especially using GPS - laser and radar techniques - image processing and image sequence analysis - autonomous vehicle guidance systems - inertial navigation systems - integration of different sensor systems.
