Applied Analytics technical notes

These pages keep the previously published Applied Analytics engineering notes in view, then point to the same measurement topics those notes already described.

Preserved engineering record

Position and Attitude Data System (PADS) The Position and Attitude Data System (PADS) is a high accuracy, near real time, long range airborne direct georeferencing system.

It integrates GPS and inertial sensor measurements using Kalman filtering techniques to precisely determine multiple target locations on the ground.

The GPS Inertial Data Simulator (GIDS) The GPS Inertial Data Simulator (GIDS) is a dynamic testing tool for systems using imbedded Inertial Navigation Systems (INS) or GPS.

It is a low-cost, simulation-based alternative to physical testing that requires the actual movement of the system under test.

Integrated Navigation Systems combine GPS and inertial sensors with sophisticated software to yield extremely accurate locational information.

Most systems are designed from the ground up, with proprietary hardware and software.

Integrated Navigation Systems combine the power of GPS with inertial sensors (gyros and accelerometers) to generate extremely accurate locational information.

This data is used for a wide variety of applications including vehicle navigation, sensor stabilization and target acquisition.
