The study of local terrain modeling methods for vertical planning of the territory

This work aims to study the vertical planning method for the terrain area as part of the process of construction geodetic support. Such planning will be carried out based on the aerial survey data from UAVs, which allow the creation of a high-quality digital elevation model (DEM) with sufficient node density for reliable surface terrain modelling. During the study, we test the hypothesis of the possibility of using archival aerial photographs from UAVs to model the terrain of the local area. Both the actual achievable accuracy of terrain modeling in the course of photogrammetric processing of archived aerial photographs, and methods for creating a polygonal terrain model using input spatial data in the form of clouds of 3D points of a given density require analysis. To do this, we will perform comparisons of the accuracy of calculating earth masses, carried out based on the digital triangulation elevation models (TIN). These models were based on different algorithms for creating Delaunay triangulation with different degrees of 3D point sparsity.We proposed to use sparsity of dense clouds of points representing the surface of the terrain and which were obtained by the photogrammetric method. Computer terrain modelling and calculation of vertical planning parameters were performed by us for the area with flat terrain at angles up to 3.5 degrees. We evaluated the potential of archived UAV aerial photographs and algorithms for creating Delaunay triangulation at different densities of its nodes for calculating the volumes of earth masses.
