摘 要：We extend the application of real-time kinematic PPP to aerial triangulation using GPS to determine coordinates of the antenna installed on the airplane, using real-time satellite products from IGS and the CNES Analysis Center. In order to verify the performance of real-time kinematic PPP for aerial triangulation, three tests with varying aerial and ground conditions are assessed. Numerical results show that real-time kinematic PPP using IGS real-time products of 5-cm orbit accuracy and 0.1- to 0.3-ns clock precision can provide comparable accuracy for aerial photogrammetric mapping at the scale of 1:1000 as does post-mission kinematic PPP using IGS final products. Millimeter-to-centimeter-level differences and centimeter-to-2-decimeter differences are identified for horizontal and vertical coordinates of ground check points, respectively, in the three tests. The comparison between real-time IGS and CNES products for GPS positioning and aerial triangulation unveils that real-time products with a better clock precision can result in better performance of GPS real-time kinematic PPP as applied to aerial triangulation.
