Full textAbstract:
Bowhead whales, Balaena mysticetus, have black skin except for patterns of white along their ventral surface and visible dorsally on their lower jaws, caudal peduncles, and flukes. White scar marks may also be present. These contrasting black and white dorsal patterns were examined in 4871 aerial photographs of bowheads taken from 1976 to 1987 to determine if individual animals could be reidentified when subsequently photographed. The objective of making such reidentifications was to provide important life-history information, such as calving intervals, length-specific growth rates, survival rates, and population abundance. This paper describes procedures developed to categorize whales into 20 file types based on the relative extent of visible white markings. Preliminary analysis of the photographic identification system suggests that it has a high potential for use in population studies but only if whale images are of sufficient quality and quantity to allow for multiple reidentifications. High-quality images are best obtained from aerial photographs taken directly above whales in clear water during good to excellent sea-state conditions without glare. This ensures that sufficient characteristic features, if present, are photographed to permit recognition in subsequent photographs.

Full textAbstract:
SummaryThe island of Little Cayman, in the north-west Caribbean, supports a large breeding colony of Red-footed Boobies Sula sula, within a Ramsar site, the Booby Pond Nature Reserve, protected and managed by the National Trust for the Cayman Islands. Comparison of aerial photographs from 1994 and 1997 shows the colony area unchanged over this time period, occupying 16.5 ha. Area sampling yielded an estimate of 4,839 nesting pairs on Little Cayman in 1997, representing c. 30% of the entire Caribbean population for this species. Low mortality and excellent condition of chicks indicated a very successful breeding year with good food availability. Aerial photography proved to be an effective tool for determining the colony area but nests visible on these images did not correlate sufficiently well with ground data to be considered a viable basis for population monitoring. The 1997 census will serve as an important baseline, as Little Cayman is on the brink of explosive real estate development which is likely to have a severe impact on the island's natural resources over the next decade.

Full textAbstract:
Epimeletic behavior has been reported in various species of cetaceans and sometimes in wild populations during vessel-based surveys. Epimeletic behavior in cetaceans involves complex social interactions which have been described using observational and acoustic studies. The recent advances in unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) technology allowed its application in wildlife research and frequently in cetaceans in conjunction with vessel-based surveys. This article is the first report of intraspecific epimeletic behavior of Indo-Pacific humpback dolphins (Sousa chinensis) in Hong Kong waters using a combination of UAV- and vessel-based photography. Using both techniques, we were able to observe and qualitative analyze the individual body condition, group behavior, and swimming pattern during the epimeletic event. This study highlighted that UAVs can be used to observe the complex social behaviors and interactions of cetaceans from the aerial angle while keeping a minimal level of disturbance to the animals. Aerial footage can also be quantitatively analyzed to provide further insights on the group behaviors of cetaceans. The application allows efficient assessment of health, behavior, and ecology of wild animals, offering valuable opportunities for researchers working on free-ranging populations.

Full textAbstract:
As a part of a review of bowhead whale (Balaena mysticetus) stocks, a study was conducted to evaluate how much mixing occurs in the whales’spring migration, a period which immediately follows the mating season. This study has used aerial photography of bowhead whales during their spring migration near Point Barrow, which has resulted in 5,800 images, primarily from 1984 through 1994. These photographs included 40 different whales seen in at least two years, and of these, two were seen in three different years, making for a pair-wise sample size of 42 matches between years. Differences between dates of initial sightings and subsequent sightings (i.e. resightings) ranged from -31 to +23 days comparing month and day only, irrespective of year. These resightings were well dispersed across most of the bowhead spring migration; 98% of the photographs were taken across 45 days from 19 April through 2 June. Models for predicting resighting date from initial sighting date, whale length, presence of a calf, year of initial sighting and year of subsequent sightings were considered, and the best model was chosen using Akaike’s Information Criterion (AIC). The best model included most predictors but did not include initial sighting date. Thus, all of the available evidence indicates that individual mature bowheads do not have a consistent migration timing past Barrow; instead, in subsequent years they may appear on almost any date within the normal migratory period. This wide mixing and near-random distribution of resighting dates throughout the spring migration is indicative of a single stock of whales that have a somewhat plastic schedule.

Full textAbstract:
Conservation planning for marine-coastal environments requires updated and detailed maps; the aim of this work is to generate detailed maps for two mudflats in the Iscuandé River Delta (Bocana de Iscuandé) in the Colombian Pacific Coast (Department of Nariño). These are important areas for fauna, especially migratory shorebirds. To address this problem, this study investigated the use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) as an alternative for collecting detailed mapping information in areas of difficult access using photogrammetric methodsand a geographic information system (GIS). UAV images were used to generate maps with a high level of detail at a scale of 1:10,000 that include detailed information about environments such as mudflats and mangroves which had not been mapped before. UAVs are a practical tool for mapping places where weather and access conditions hinder the use of satellite images or conventional aerial photography. They are also useful for mapping areas with high temporal and spatial variability, such as mudflats, where other platforms may not reveal their short-term dynamics. Our results show that this technique has a high potential for mapping such environments, and reveal that the Iscuandé mudflats aremaintained by a relative equilibrium between the ebb and flow of waves and tides, and are also influenced by the local climate. This type of application provides critical data for conservation and management strategies of areas with great ecological importance.

Full textAbstract:
The population size of Australian fur seals Arctocephalus pusillus doriferus and New Zealand fur seals A. forsteri at The Skerries, Victoria was estimated in two consecutive breeding seasons, 1999-2000 and 2000-2001 using both mark-recapture procedures and aerial surveys. 675 and 746 A. p. doriferus pups and 37 and 47 A. forsteri pups were captured and marked in 1999-2000 and 2000-2001, respectively. Resights (1999-2000 N = 3; 2000-2001 N = 6) were conducted 2 - 3 days after marking and pup population estimates were calculated using a modified Lincoln-Petersen estimate. The arithmetic mean for A. p. doriferus pup abundance was 1,867 in the first season and 2,237 in the second. A. forsteri abundance was 75 and 78, respectively. The A. p. doriferus population is estimated to have increased an average of 19.7% (r = 0.18) between 1999 and 2000. The arithmetic mean from five counts of aerial photographs of total animals present at the colony was 1,758 in 1999-2000 and 2,965 in 2000-2001. Due to high variation between counts, aerial surveys proved to be an inconsistent and inaccurate method for estimating the population of fur seals at The Skerries.

Full textAbstract:
Agricultural abandonment resulted in the expansion of forests dominated by invasive tree species that were introduced throughout Puerto Rico. These novel forests are increasingly common worldwide but little is known about the drivers and consequences of their expansion. This study describes the geographic distribution and spatial attributes of novel forests dominated by the African tulip tree, Spathodea campanuata Beauv., in north-central Puerto Rico. I used aerial photography to map Spathodea forests, determined their distribution by geological substrate, soil type and previous history, and estimated the area and perimeter to area ratio (P/A) of each patch. The 443 mapped Spathodea forests covered 0.7% of the region, ranged from 0.03 to 9.1 ha (mean=0.5, S.E.=0.03) in area, and from 0.03 to 0.3 m/m2 (mean=0.09, S.E.=0.0002) in P/A. Spathodea forests were more frequent on lands previously used for sugarcane, which are typically on fertile Mollisols on alluvial substrate. Half the Spathodea forests were over 30 years old and those on former sun coffee farms on volcanic extrusive substrate had larger area and lower P/A. Novel Spathodea forests rehabilitate agricultural lands, increase spatial connectivity and create favorable conditions for agroforestry and species restoration interventions, representing an asset for social-ecological resilience to climate change and socio-economic development.

Full textAbstract:
Ice-based surveys near Point Barrow, Alaska, have been used to obtain most estimates of abundance for the Bering-Chukchi-Beaufort (B-C-B) stock of bowhead whales, but global warming has raised concerns that ice-based surveys may not be practical in the future. Aerial photographic surveys provide an alternative method for obtaining abundance estimates and may replace ice-based surveys. Aerial photographic surveys were conducted near Point Barrow during the spring migrations of bowhead whales in 2003 and 2004 and, in 2005, in the northern Bering Sea in spring and near Barrow in fall. The 2003 survey was the most complete photographic survey of the population conducted to date. These surveys provided photo-identification data for use in capture-recapture analyses. A screening procedure was used to define which whales captured in 2003, 2004 and/or 2005 were marked and could be reidentified if photographed on another occasion. An estimate of the number of marked whales was obtained using a closed population model for capture-recapture data. Several models were investigated, including models that accounted for heterogeneity in capture probabilities, but a simple model with no covariates produced the most precise estimate. To account for unmarked whales, the estimate of marked whales was divided by an estimate of the proportion of the bowhead population that was marked based on the 1989–2004 spring photographic surveys near Point Barrow. Abundance of the B-C-B bowhead population in 2004 (excluding calves) was estimated to be 12,631 with CV 0.2442, 95% bootstrap percentile confidence interval (7,900; 19,700) and 5% lower limit 8,400. These results were compared with results that used approximate variance expressions for the estimates of the number of marked whales, the proportion of the population that was marked and population abundance instead of using the bootstrap. The estimates of abundance in 2004 computed for comparison included one based on a modified Petersen estimate of the number of marked whales that omitted the 2005 data as well as the estimate of 12,631 described above. The comparison estimates also included estimates of abundance in 1985 computed from 1984–87 photographic survey data using the same methods. All the abundance estimates computed from photographic data were consistent with expectations based on independent abundance and trend estimates from the ice-based surveys conducted from 1978 to 2001.

Full textAbstract:
SUMMARYCrop patterns of natural origin and man-created crop marks are frequently recorded on aerialphotographs taken over England and Wales. They usually indicate subsil variation over short distances, but differences in crop growth may also be evident in relation to topsoil variability. Different kinds of crop patterns and the soils on which crop patterns and marks develop are briefly described. Soil associations in which crop patterns and marks are frequently and extensively recorded cover 25% (37664 km2) of England and Wales; in dry years, patterns and marks are extensively recorded over a further 6·5% (9884 km2). Crop patterns and marks indicate that over much of England and Wales crop growth may be impeded by properties intrinsic to the soil, which are not easily ameliorated by farmers. When siting crop experiments, care should be taken to avoid these areas of complex soil patterns.

In a series of aerial photographic surveys of bowhead whales migrating past Barrow in Alaska in the spring, 40 individuals were captured in more than one year. To study individual-specific persistency in migratory pattern, the relative ranks of the captures of these whales among all captures that year were analysed. Controlling for body length and the presence of calves, the correlation of relative ranks in individuals captured multiple times was found not to be significantly different from zero (p-value=0.78).

Full textAbstract:
The percentage of calves in a whale population can provide information on whether a population is increasing, stable or decreasing and is an input to population models. In this paper a method for estimating the percentage of calves in the Bering-Chukchi-Beaufort Seas (B-CB) bowhead whale population in any given year by obtaining information on the percentage of calves passing Point Barrow, Alaska, during the last three weeks of the spring migration is presented. The method incorporates information on the timing of the migration with the percentage of calves detected during calf index surveys conducted during weekly periods from 14 May to early June. Historic data provide the different proportions of the migration during the weekly periods during low, medium and high calf years. The index is adjusted to allow for calves passing before 14 May and calves that are born after their mothers pass Point Barrow. The calf index was calculated for eight years using data from aerial photographic surveys near Point Barrow from 1985 to 2004 and the mean percentage of calves in the sampled years was 6.1%. Power analyses indicate that nine years of calf index data are required following a decline to detect a 60% reduction in the calf index. Additional calf index surveys prior to a decline would increase the power to detect a decline. This method can provide a robust estimate of the percentage of calves in the population each year with a modest aerial survey or photographic effort at Point Barrow. The data would be valuable in evaluating whether calving rates are within the range tested for the purpose of reviewing the B-C-B bowhead whale Strike Limit Algorithm.

Full textAbstract:
New World army ants species have an important role in structuring invertebrate communities. Labidus praedator (Fr. Smith, 1858) is a generalist top predator that can reduce pest densities in agroecosystems. The aim of this study was to describe behavioral attributes, diet composition and interspecific interactions of the ant L. praedator. We searched for army ant raids using standardized trail-walk surveys and plotted army ants raids positions on an aerial image. We photographed events at swarm raids of L. praedator and recorded its diet items in basal columns near bivouacs. Six species from four Ecitoninae genera - Labidus (Jurine, 1807), Nomamyrmex (Borgmeier, 1936), Neivamyrmex (Borgmeier, 1940) and Eciton (Latreille, 1804) - were recorded. Caterpillars dominated the composition of the diet of L. praedator. Flowers and diaspores of weeds and aril and flesh of fruits were also transported to bivouacs. One colony stopped foraging after intense rainfall and discrete groups of hundreds of L. praedator ants were separated under patches covered by shrubs. Groups of Crotophaginae birds, Sarcophaginae flies and Polistinae wasps followed L. praedator swarm raids. We discuss the importance of landscape structure for agroecosystem colonization by Ecitoninae and the existence of chemical opportunism between army ants species through the reuse of unoccupied trails.

Killer whale (Orcinus orca) populations in high latitude, nearshore areas appear to regularly exhibit prey specialisation among two or more sympatric ecotypes, but nearly nothing is known about populations that inhabit open ocean areas or tropical latitudes. On 26 September 2003, during a cetacean survey in the eastern tropical Pacific Ocean, a group of an estimated 19 killer whales was encountered feeding on a calf of a blue whale (Balaenoptera musculus); the location was 10°58’N, 88°40’W, 230km west of Nicaragua. The whales were studied for 2.5 hours and during this time skin biopsy samples were collected, acoustic recordings made, aerial and lateral photographs taken and behavioural observations recorded. The 19 individuals identified included 4 males (3 adults, 1 subadult), 5 cow-calf pairs and 5 other females/subadult males. Using aerial photogrammetry, body lengths of 17 different animals were measured: the largest male (who carried the carcass most of the time) was 8.0m long; and the largest female (with a calf) was 6.1m. From 10 biopsy samples, two distinct haplotypes were identified that differed from resident (i.e. fish-eating ecotype) killer whales in the northeastern Pacific by one and two base pairs, respectively. The single discrete call recorded was a typical killer whale call but it had a two-part pitch contour that was structurally distinct from calls recorded to date in the North Pacific. These observations reaffirm that calves of even the largest whale species are vulnerable to predation, although by migrating to calving areas in the tropics, where killer whale densities are lower, baleen whales should be able to increase their overall reproductive fitness, as suggested by Corkeron and Connor (1999).

Full textAbstract:
We used data derived from forest maps and ground surveys to study habitat preferences and sexual segregation in two populations of northern white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) living at low density in southeastern Quebec. Based on the reproductive-strategy hypothesis invoked to explain sexual segregation, we predicted that females would select habitat with denser cover than males did throughout the growing season, but that this tendency would decline with fawn maturation. Deer of both populations and sexes avoided agricultural lands; one population preferred regenerating clearcuts and disturbed conifer stands (balsam fir and spruce), whereas the other preferred undisturbed cedar stands. Based on map analyses we did not detect sexual segregation. Field surveys revealed that deer did not select forest stands at random and that habitat preferences differed by sex. Early in the growing season, both sexes tended to use mid-successional, dense stands, whereas males progressively used younger, more open stands later in the season. Detecting habitat preferences of forest mammals may require fine-scale details that are unavailable on maps derived from aerial photographs.

Since February 2008, an advanced system has been developed to acquire digital images in the visible to near infrared wavelengths. Using this system, it is possible to acquire data for a large variety of applications. The core of the system consists of a Duncantech MS3100 CIR (Color-InfraRed) multi-spectral camera. The main advantages of the system are its affordability and flexibility; within an hour the system can be deployed against very competitive costs. In several steps, using ArcGIS, Python and Avenue scripts, the raw data is semi-automatically processed into geo-referenced mosaics. This paper presents the parts of the system, the image processing workflow and several potential applications of the images.

The photogrammetric mapping process at the first stage requires planning of aerial photography. Aerial photographs quality depends on the successfull photographic mission specified by requirements that meet not only Lithuanian needs, but also the requirements of the European Union. For such a purpose the detailed specifications for aerial photographic mission for mapping urban territories at a large scale are investigated. The aerial photography parameters and requirements for flight planning, photographic strips, overlaps, aerial camera and film are outlined. The scale of photography, flying height and method for photogrammetric mapping is foreseen as well as tolerances of photographs tilt and swings round (yaw) are presented. Digital camera based on CCD sensors and on-board GPS is greatly appreciated in present-day technologies undertaking aerial mission.

Regression models were developed to predict relative bird abundance in a naturally heterogeneous landscape using patch and landscape spatial scales. Breeding birds were surveyed with point counts on 140 study sites in 1997 and 1998. Aerial photographs were digitized to obtain habitat patch information, such as area, shape, and edge contrast. Classified remote-sensing data were gathered to provide information on landscape composition and configuration within a 1-km2 area around the study sites. Stepwise multiple linear regression was used to develop 40 species-specific models within specific habitat types using patch and landscape characteristics. In 38 out of the 40 models, area of the habitat patch was first selected as the most important predictor of relative bird abundance. Variables related to the landscape were retained in 6 of the 40 models. In this naturally heterogeneous region, the landscape surrounding the patch contributed little to explaining relative bird abundance. The models were evaluated by examining how well they predicted relative bird abundance in a test set not included in the original analyses. The results of the test data were reasonable: >79% of the test observations were within the prediction intervals established by the training data.

The purpose of this work is to prove the necessity and possibility of returning to the orthometric system of heights in Ukraine and to substantiate the ways of solving this problem. The method of achieving the goal is provided by theoretical studies of existing methods of astronomical and geodetic leveling, modern methods of forecasting neotectonic processes, GNSS accuracy and geometric leveling. The main results are: the requirements for the accuracy of gravimetric support of high-precision geometric leveling, both DGM of Ukraine and high-altitude network of geodynamic and man-made landfills. The theoretical possibility of determining orthometric heights for almost 90% of the territory of Ukraine with an accuracy of even 0.2 mm per 1 km of double stroke has been established. Scientific novelty and practical significance: it has been proved that even at the maximum values of GPP anomalies it is possible to consider orthometric and normal heights as segments of normal to the reference ellipsoid, as well as geometrical heights; if at astronomical and geodetic leveling to define a deviation of a temple with accuracy mθ_sr = 0,2 "(accuracy of modern zenith systems even 0,08"), it will bring an error in definition of a difference of orthometric heights of 0,2 mm on 1 km of the course if to determine this value from the available gravimetric maps of the deviation of the temple, this error will be 0.5-1 mm per 1 km of travel, which also corresponds to the leveling of even the first class; ; non-parallelism of equipotential surfaces should be taken into account when the difference between the force of gravity on the equipotential surface of the initial point of travel and at the point of intersection of this surface with the normal at the end point of travel exceeds 2 mGal; the force of gravity at the leveling station and on the force line of the field at the end of the course, at a height corresponding to the height of the corresponding leveling station, must be known at the sum of excesses during 10 m per 1 km with an accuracy of only 20 mGal. m per 1 km - 2 mGala, therefore, the modern model EIGEN-CG03C (accuracy is estimated within 8 Mgal) in most of the plains of Ukraine can provide gravimetric data for the creation of state leveling networks and high-precision leveling during engineering and geodetic works and works on geodynamic and man-made landfills.

The aim of the work is to investigate the accuracy of the DEM of nearshore areas using UAV material. One of the important issues in hydrological flood modelling is the high accuracy of the DEM. In the case of a complex relief type, which is associated with meandering riverbeds, it is proposed to use UAV surveys to create a DEM. Hydrological modelling involves the following main steps: creation of high precision DEMs, determination of Manning coefficients to account for the influence of the underlying surface and determination of water level changes based on the water level graph derived from observations at hydrometeorological stations. This research presents the construction of a high-precision DEM, based on a UAV survey. For high-precision modeling, the fundamental issue is the consideration of vegetation in the nearshore areas and the choice of the optimal time period for the survey. The aim of the study is to develop a methodology for the construction of a high-precision DEM from UAV data, investigate the possibilities of eliminating the influence of vegetation on point marks using software methods, determine planned channel shifts and compare the accuracy of DEM construction for surveys conducted in June 2017 and in November 2021. The section at the transition from the mountainous to marshy-hilly part of the Dniester River near the town of Stary Sambir, with complex morphometric and hydrological characteristics of the channel and banks at the site of the complex meandering of the river in a rugged ravine area was the study object of this work. Results. It was found that for 4 years between two surveys, the planned displacements of some points are up to 25-31 meters. A priori estimation of coordinates determination by points from the GNSS-receiver was carried out, the accuracy of point coordinates determination is 2-3 cm. The a priori estimate of the accuracy of determining the coordinates of points from the input survey data is: for plan coordinates - 4-6 cm for two survey periods, the error in determining the marks of points for different values of the baseline - 21-31 cm. It has been established, that the program methods of accounting of influence of high vegetation do not give the possibility of its full accounting, the average square error, in places of such vegetation makes 0,64 m. Therefore, it is necessary to carry out UAV survey in the leafless period of the year, early spring or late autumn. Scientific novelty consists in the study of the possibility of constructing a high-precision DEM for different types of vegetation from materials obtained from UAVs. The results can be used for hydrological modeling of river channels with complex hydromorphological characteristics.

Ancient maps and plans are important sources of information for multifaceted knowledge of the past. In many studies, the accuracy parameters of spatial data are in demand. The purpose of our work is to study the geometric accuracy of the Lviv plan 1894 by Józef Khovanec. The methodology for studying the accuracy assessment is based on the transformation and geometric analysis of sets of identical points in the ancient plan and the modern reference one. For such a transformation, the Helmert transformation with four parameters and multiquadratic interpolation methods are used. The obtained results make it possible to graphically visualize the inaccuracies of the old plan in the form of displacement vectors, scale and rotation isolines, which clearly territorially diversify the distortions of the cartographic image. Using the method of least squares, a value was obtained that characterizes the positional accuracy of the ancient plan. All calculations and illustrations were made in the MapAnalyst software package, which specializes in the cartometric analysis of old maps. The results of cartometric analysis are influenced by a number of different factors, the decisive ones for the study were the following: the quality of the original; selection of a set of identical items; interpolation technique. When choosing identical points, the main attention is paid to their uniform distribution over the entire area of the plan at a constant position in time. The results obtained represent only one of the possible mathematical models built on the basis of the input data. However, we consider the achieved results to be valid. The processed technique significantly speeds up and simplifies the study of the accuracy of old plans and can be used for similar studies of other cartographic works, and the obtained numerical results and graphic visualizations can be used to compare old plans with each other.

The aim of this work is to develop an algorithm for mathematical three-dimensional modeling of a typical roof of a Ukrainian church based on ground-based laser scanning and to find ways to optimize the model depending on the input data set. Method. The accuracy of the simulation depends on the laser scan data. The number of points obtained and their accuracy will affect the final result - 3D model of the roof. Given the typical design of the church roof in the shape of a cone, you can apply the standard mathematical algorithm for modeling part of the buildings of a typical church. Result The proposed algorithm was developed in the MathCad software environment. 3D scanning materials of the Ukrainian typical church were used to develop the mathematical algorithm. The algorithm analyzes the location of the scanning points of the church roof and performs its averaging. As a result of the algorithm, erroneous measurements were rejected and a model of the part of the roof was obtained, which forms the optimal geometry of the structure. Scientific novelty and practical significance. The proposed mathematical algorithm allows to automate some modeling processes of a typical Ukrainian church for design decisions. This method of modeling can be used for similar structures of other buildings.

The aim of the work is to analyze the change of hydrostatic and wet component values of zenith tropospheric delay (ZTD), determined for all seasons of the year. For today, ZTD components are determined mainly as follows: hydrostatic component – by using one of existing analytical models, mostly Saastamoinen model, and wet component – from GNSS measurements using simulated value of hydrostatic component. Also, in this study we evaluated the accuracy of the obtained values of hydrostatic and wet ZTD components for similar components, determined by radio sounding. For this purpose, we selected a pair of relatively close to each other station – aerological station and GNSS reference one. To implement the research methodology described above, we choose the Praha-Libus aerological station and the GOPE GNSS reference station. For processing and analysis, we selected the data from radio soundings of neutral atmosphere from the first station and the total values of ZTD (hydrostatic plus wet components) from the second one. Such data were selected monthly from the 1st to the 10th day of 2012 at 12 o’clock Universal Time. According to the radio sounding data, we determined the hydrostatic and the wet components of ZTD (set as reference) and the same number of total values of ZTD, derived for the same hour from GNSS measurements at the GOPE reference station. Based on these data, we determined the values of wet component of ZTD and compared them with the corresponding data, obtained from radio soundings. We found that the error of the hydrostatic component has a clear seasonal change ranging from only positive values in the range of 2 – 7 mm in January with a change cross zero in April (October), reaching only negative values in the range of 3 – 5 mm in July. As for the error of the wet component of ZTD, it should be noted that it takes only negative values during the year without clear seasonal course. Note that maximum absolute value of this error is in July, which exceeds 30 mm, due to the maximum content of water vapor in the troposphere at this time. However, only negative values of the wet component error indicate a systematic shift of its values. This paper provides recommendations for further research to improve the accuracy of determination of both hydrostatic and wet components of ZTD, as well as the reasons for seasonal changes in the accuracy of determination, especially the hydrostatic component.

The aim of the work is to propose a method of creating a geographic information online resource for the management of Lisovohrynivetska UTC. To implement the tasks, a technological scheme was proposed, which consisted of 9 stages of work. The first stage involved the collection and analysis of disparate data in both vector and raster formats on the territory of the Lisovohrenivetska united territorial community. In the second stage, with the help of Global Mapper software, all vector data files in *.dxf and *.dmf formats, which were previously available, were converted to *.shp format for further processing in ArcGIS software. As a result of the conversion, graphic and attributive data were obtained in the required format and according to the layers they contain, the geodatabase with symbols according to the classifier was edited to create 1: 2000 scale plans. The next step was to unify the database of convertible files, as vector data was created with different construction of attribute tables. In addition, there is a need to enter vector data into the edited geospatial database. To do this, a ArcPy script was written that rearranges attribute tables and enters data into a geodatabase. Adjusted and populated the attribute database of vector objects for those columns where there was no information. The penultimate step was to develop the structure of the geoportal on the basis of ArcGIS-online to download the geodatabase to Lisovohrynivetska UTC on the server, to enable their external use with a unique login and password. The last step, after creating the structure of the geoportal, was to upload vector and raster geodata prepared by ArcGIS to the geoportal. As a result of the realization of the set purpose the technique of creating the geoinformation online resource for the management of the united territorial community is offered and described. During the implementation of the method the data of 24 disparate vector layers for the Lisogrynivtska community of Khmelnytsky region were processed and converted. Raster cartographic materials for UTC were collected and processed. The geodatabase according to the classifier for scale 1: 2000 is created. The structure of the geoportal based on the ArcGIS-online kernel with a connected map-base based on the online resource GoogleMaps, where all processed materials are downloaded, has been developed. The scientific novelty is to develop the concept of accumulation of heterogeneous vector and raster geospatial data in one geodatabase, by converting them into a specific format. Additional modules have been written in ArcPy to unify the database structure. Implemented geoinformation system is located on the geoportal and is designed for management decisions of community leaders. In addition, the created GIS can be used for land management and surveying work on community sites.

The aim of this work. This article is devoted to the study of geodynamic processes in the Tysza River basin within the Transcarpathian region with an analysis of geodetic observations obtained over the past decade. Method. Karst monitoring began with the identification of the most dangerous areas of the earth's surface that are subject to vertical displacements. After the detection of the most dangerous areas the local geodetic monitoring was carried out at facilities within the urban settlement to prevent possible accidents: Solotvyno, Dilove and Bila Tserkva. A collection of archival aerial photography was also used to develop a methodology for identifying changes in landscapes and landforms under the influence of geodynamic processes. Results. UAVs were used to remove karsts. On the basis of digital aerial photography data were created: orthophotos and digital terrain models. Digital aerial photography was carried out in accordance with the requirements of regulatory documents. To determine the dynamics of landslides and karst the digital aerial photography must be repeated several times at certain intervals. Aerial photography work was carried out in two stages in 2020 and 2021 Contour points were selected for identification marks. They are recognized on aerial photography and the terrain with an accuracy of at least 0.1 mm on the scale of the created plan. Mathematical processing of geodetic GPS measurements was performed using Trimble Geomatics Office software. After photogrammetric processing, the quality control of the obtained results was performed and digital surface models using DEM and TIN methods. Orthophotomaps on a scale of 1:1000 were made from raster images of aerial photographs, taking into account the created digital terrain model. There is a need for monitoring work to update information on the state of modern karst formations and areas with exogenous processes in Solotvyno and Bila Tserkva, Tyachiv district and the village Dilove, Rakhiv district, Transcarpathian region. The technology of topographic and geodetic works with the use of UAVs and GPS measurements in mountainous areas has been developed and tested. The results of aerial photography were used to visualize the study objects and to convey information regarding the deformation processes to local governments. For processes of natural or man-made nature (displacement, landslides, karst) requires the development of individual approaches to the use of UAVs. With the mass use of UAV images, a data bank is formed, which cannot be obtained by other methods. The study made it possible to create the method of complex determination of movements in exogenous and technogenic areas in mountainous areas with the use of the latest technologies. It allows quick establishing a plan-altitude basis of the required accuracy in the reference coordinate system in solving a number of applied geodesy problems using satellite technologies and UAVs for observations by objects.

Calibration of terrestrial laser scanners allows increasing the accuracy of the obtained data in order to comply with regulatory requirements for engineering geodesy works. Two types of test objects (TCO) are used for calibration: point-based and plane-based. The aim of this work is to evaluate, summarize and classify the criteria for selecting the type and subtype of test objects for terrestrial laser scanners calibration. The arrangement of the calibration polygon is performed by taking into account the minimization of possible errors, the ability to capture the maximum field of view and range of distances, and so on. Therefore, the selection criteria are considered, systematized, and recommendations for choosing the type of TCO for practical use are developed being based on its analysis. The main criteria influencing the metric quality of calibration data are determined. The criterion of the presence of planar elements or the possibility of installing point elements is set as secondary, which is considered after evaluating all other criteria and determining the necessary conditions. The main criteria are independence from the geometric quality of surfaces; independence on the laser beam angle of incidence; arrangement of overlapping scans; the ability to calibrate both the angular and rangefinder scanner unit; the ability to link to an external coordinate system. All these criteria are considered and their impact on the calibration results are analyzed. For a more accurate assessment of the criteria, it is recommended to use Student's t-test to determine the components of systematic error that most affect the calibration data. A promising area of research has been identified - the exact spherical planar TCO centroid’s coordinates determination, which will allow one to take full advantage of both point-based and planar-based calibration objects. The scientific novelty of the study is to systematize the criteria for selecting test objects for calibration of terrestrial laser scanners and preliminary assessment of their impact on the calibration results. The obtained results allow taking into account the initial data and the existing conditions when evaluating the criteria for selecting the type of TCO for calibration in order to optimize the calibration process and further obtained data metric quality improvement.

The purpose of this work is to study the integration of sets of core reference and thematic geospatial data based on the JOIN operation of relational algebra and its interaction with geocoding of geospatial features, which is implemented in modern geographic information systems (GIS) and database management systems (hereinafter – DBMS) for the development of the national spatial data infrastructure (hereinafter – NSDI). Method. The research is based on the analysis of the possibilities of applying the theory of geospatial databases and knowledge bases, international and national harmonized standards in the field of Geographic Information/ Geomatics to solve the problem of integration of geospatial data using the operation JOIN relational algebra in object-relational database management systems (OR DBMS). Results. The paper examines the models of the Join operation of relational algebra, which underlie the geocoding of features and the creation of electronic gazetteers, and proves its effectiveness: the Join operation integrates of core reference and thematic geospatial datasets. There is a need to define the required geographic identifiers, which must be present among the attributes of the core reference and thematic geospatial datasets to perform the join. The variety of uses of the Join operation covers all possible cases that arise in their practical application. Thus, the use of the Join operation involves identifying these required geographic identifiers at the geospatial database design stage. In particular, it is expedient to determine mandatory geographical identifiers (codes) of features according to the official national systems of features classification (codification) in the relevant sectoral thematic registers, which are responsible for certain holders of thematic data in accordance with Annex 2 of the Decree of Cabinet of Ministers “The order for the functioning of the national spatial data infrastructure” of May 26, 2021, № 532. Scientific novelty and practical significance. The integration of core reference data and thematic geospatial datasets based on JOIN operation models of relational algebra and their interaction with geocoding of geospatial features is researched, which is implemented in modern GIS and DBMS for the development of national spatial data infrastructure. The research was performed on a set of core reference spatial data, namely: information on administrative-territorial units of the Cherkasy region, including their borders; the data from the statistical bulletin of the socio-economic situation of the Cherkasy region for January 2021 of the Main Department of Statistics in Cherkasy region of the State Statistics Service of Ukraine were selected as thematic data. It has been shown that relational algebra join (JOIN) operations can be used to integrate other thematic geospatial data with core reference data using geographic identifiers that contain these datasets.

The article presents the aspects of historical development of monitoring of Tereble-Ritska hydroelectric power station (HPP), which led to the need of establishing an automated system of geodetic monitoring (ASGM) of deformations of the water pipeline and other structures. Since 2018, the system has been automated and the instrumental part continues to be expanded. Thus, as of 2022, the instrumental part of ASGM includes 3 main components, namely: linear-angular measurements with the determination of meteorological parameters, satellite GNSS measurements, and piezometric measurements. This article presents the results of ASGM work in order to monitor deformations. There are also some advantages of using ASGM in comparison with classical measurements, which first of all allow determining of coordinates in real-time and increase the accuracy of spatial deformation detection to 2 mm (horizontal) and 3 mm (height) on an area of 2 km2. It is also possible to inform the maintenance services of the monitored object when the received deformation exceeds the established limits. According to the results of the time series of linear-angular measurements, it can be stated that the pipeline undergoes seasonal displacements which are manifested in the horizontal displacement of supports towards the HPP building from winter to summer, and vice versa from summer to winter. To date, the amount of special data for the aggregate analysis of linear-angular measurements with the determination of meteorological parameters, GNSS measurements and piezometric measurements is insufficient. As data accumulates, it will be important to establish relationships between these parameters.

The problem of applying thematic mapping of production facilities in order to obtain spatial data about the harmful effects on the environment is relevant. One of the factors that minimizes this impact is the observance of sanitary protection zones. Areas designated for sanitary protection zones must correspond to current data, which can be modeled by modern GIS technology using remote sensing data of the Earth, which will allow you to quickly and accurately obtain spatial characteristics of objects and analyze thematic information. Therefore, the aim of the work is to obtain and to analyze spatial thematic data on sanitary protection zones of industrial enterprises. Methods. For the spatial analysis of sanitary protection zones the method of modeling of spatial data using cartographic and remote sensing data and the analysis of the constructed model are applied. Results. A cartographic model was created and compliance with sanitary protection zones by industrial enterprises of Slavuta and Khmelnytsky nuclear power plant was analyzed. Scientific novelty and practical relevance. It consists in the complex application of cartographic and remote sensing data for modeling and analysis of the location of sanitary protection zones of enterprises in the city of Slavuta. The obtained thematic geospatial data can serve to eliminate the shortcomings of planning and development of both enterprises and the surrounding infrastructure. The analysis of the results showed an unsatisfactory state of compliance to requirements of sanitary protection zones by industrial enterprises in Slavuta. The tested workflow can be used for modeling and analysis of sanitary protection zones of enterprises that have a harmful effect on the environment, which will increase the level of control in the field of sanitary legislation using GIS technologies.

The aim of this work – research of topological inconsistencies during adjustment and junction of adjacent map sheets of digital topographic maps of scale 1:50000 with the use of rigorous analytical geodetic methods on the reference ellipsoid in the geoinformation environment. The research analyzes the phenomenon of topological inconsistencies of frames of adjacent digital topographic maps of 1:50000 scale within the zones of Gauss-Krueger projections and the feasibility of transition to rigorous analytical geodetic methods in the geoinformation environment during the creation of the topographic database “The Main state topographic map” by determining the differences between the vertices of the frames of digital topographic maps at a scale of 1: 50000 at the boundaries of the projection zones. This phenomenon was discovered during work at the state enterprise “Research Institute of Geodesy and Cartography”. The dependences are shown and analyzed, which show the changes in the distances between the vertices of the frames of adjacent map sheets of scale 1: 50000 in longitude and latitude. These values range from 1 mm to 8 mm, which leads to topological inconsistencies in the form of gaps and overlaps of adjacent map sheets. These gaps and overlaps complicate the process of adjustment of map sheets and make it impossible to automate the process of the junction of features into the topographic database. The scientific novelty of the research is to justify the use of rigorous analytical geodetic methods and tools instead of analog cartometric and standard methods of instrumental GIS; the use of a reference ellipsoid, not just cartographic projections, a spheroid or a sphere. The practical significance of research is the use of rigorous analytical geodetic methods that significantly minimize the values of gaps and overlaps, as the establishment of tolerances for these values does not automate the process of correct adjustment and junction of map sheets. The performed research can be used to create the topographic database “The Basic topographic map scale 1: 10000”, during the creation and updating of geospatial data in the geoinformation environment and the implementation of geodetic methods to determine the cartometric characteristics of features using GIS. Given the results of research, we can conclude that the present stage of application of geographic information systems in topographic and geodetic activities requires increasing the level of data topology and accuracy of all cartometric methods, which leads to the transition to extremely rigorous analytical geodetic methods directly on the reference ellipsoid.

Today in Ukraine there are dozens of turbogenerators (TG) in operation, a significant part of which have been in operation for over 35 ÷ 50 years, which exceeds their service life in accordance with regulatory documents. The actual technical condition of the TG is determined by many geometrical parameters, among which the crucial ones are those that characterize it as a mechanical system (axis of the aggregate and the axis of the stator). Today, the control of the position of the axes must be performed with an accuracy of 0.5 mm, and is carried out in three ways (using a string, using an optical autoreflex system (PPS-11), using a test shaft). The purpose of these studies is to develop a method for monitoring the geometric parameters of the TG stator when replacing it with geodetic methods using high-precision electronic total stations and its testing on site. Based on previous research, we propose to solve the following problems by the spatial method of electronic total station using a high-precision total station Leica TCRP1201R300. We performed a priori estimation of accuracy and a number of experiments (research to determine refocusing error, determination of distance measurement error at short lengths using a spherical reflector, study of the effect of non-perpendicularity of the measuring laser to the reflector) to develop methods for improving measurement accuracy using electronic total station. This technique has been tested on site during the repair (replacement) of the generator stator. As a result of the work carried out, the spatial position of the axes of the aggregate and the stator was determined with an accuracy of 0.3 mm, which were fixed in the conditional coordinate system by four marks. The method provides for the selection of optimal conditions for electronic tacheometer measurements, which compensate for errors in the initial data, instrumental, external conditions, sighting, centering and fixing. Also, the method provides for the control of each stage of work on a standard deviation of up to 0.2 mm. The number of measurement methods is determined by achieving the accuracy of each stage of 0.2 mm.

The aim of this work is to evaluate the accuracy of determining the wet component of zenith tropospheric delay (ZTD) from GNSS-measurements and the accuracy of determining the hydrostatic component according to the Saastamoinen model in comparison with the radio sounding data as well. Zenith tropospheric delay is determined mainly by two methods - traditional, using radio sounding or using atmospheric models, such as the Saastamoinen model, and the method of GNSS measurements. Determination of the hydrostatic component of the zenith tropospheric delay was performed by radio sounding data obtained at the aerological station Praha-Libus in 2011-2013 and in 2018. Data were processed for the middle decades of January and July of each year at 0h o’clock of the Universal Time. The wet component was calculated from GNSS observations. By a significant number of radio soundings at the Praha-Libus aerological station, hydrostatic and wet components of zenith tropospheric delay (ZTD) and the same number of ZTD values derived for the corresponding time intervals from GNSS measurements at the GOPE reference station were determined. The values of the wet component of ZTD were determined and compared with the corresponding data obtained from radio soundings. We found that the error of the hydrostatic component in winter does not exceed 10 mm in absolute value, and in summer it is approximately 1.5 times smaller. This is due to differences in the stratification of the troposphere and lower stratosphere in winter and summer. As for the wet component of ZTD, its errors do not exceed: in winter 15 mm, in summer – 35 mm. The resulting differences in summer have a negative sign, indicating a systematic shift, and in winter – both negative and positive. Today, there are many studies aimed at improving the accuracy of determining zenith tropospheric delay by both Ukrainian and foreign authors, but the problem of the accuracy of the hydrostatic component remains open. The study provides recommendations for further research to improve the accuracy of zenith tropospheric delay.
