If there are no known marks available, the global accuracy 
of your data will be reduced. However, you can still use 
AeroPoints to get results that are internally accurate and 
consistent over time. 

Find a hard, flat surface that will not move or be disturbed, 
and establish your own “mark” (we recommend using 
heavy-duty aerosol paint like that used for line-marking). 
Place one AeroPoint at this mark and ensure it is left in 
place to record at least two hours of data. 

For your first flight, we’ll use the data from this AeroPoint 
to calculate an estimated point (accurate within 50cm). For 
subsequent flights, we’ll treat that coordinate  
as a “known mark.” 

If none of the methods above are an option, the global 
accuracy of your data, and consistency over time, will be 
reduced. 

However, you can still use AeroPoints to get an internally 
accurate reconstruction—measurements and distances 
will be precise. 

If you’re only capturing a site once (like a damage 
assessment or a traffic accident capture) and don’t need 
to measure changes over time, this method may fulfill your 
requirements.

You might have access to a dual frequency L1/L2 RTK 
rover, or your site may have an RTK base station receiver. 
Provide us with RINEX formatted GNSS observations for 
the period of your survey and we can use these as the 
reference point. 

Note: The RINEX file must have an accurate location for 
the base in the header, as this is the location that the 
AeroPoints will be measured against.

Global accuracy:  
500mm/500mm/500mm

Consistency:  
20mm/20mm/50mm (the best available—dependant 

on using same known mark each time)

Internal accuracy:  
10mm or less (precise internal reconstruction)

Global accuracy:  
20mm/20mm/50mm (the best available)

Consistency:  
20mm/20mm/50mm (the best available)

Internal accuracy:  
10mm or less (precise internal reconstruction)

Global accuracy:

Consistency:
