Travaux de recherche en géodésie-GPS

 

Positionnement cinématique GPS

Les activités de recherche en positionnement cinématique GPS se sont déroulées principalement dans le cadre d’un des projets du Réseau de centres d’excellence en géomatique GEOIDE (ENV#14) [Santerre and St-Pierre, 1999], [St-Pierre et al., 1999],  [St-Pierre, 1999],  [Santerre et al., 2000a], [Santerre and Langley, 2000]. Aussi dans le cadre de ce projet, une étude sur l’évaluation du sur-enfoncement dynamique (squat) de navires à l’aide du GPS a été menée, en collaboration avec le Département de génie civil de l’Université Laval [Michaud et al., 2002], [Morse et al., 2002]. Ces travaux avaient pour but d’évaluer le dégagement sous quille de navires commerciaux navigant dans la voie maritime du St-Laurent. L’amélioration des algorithmes GPS-OTF, en utilisant les informations a priori sur les niveaux de l’eau, a aussi été testée et validée sur plusieurs jeux de données recueillies sur le fleuve St-Laurent [Zhu and Santerre, 2001, 2002a, 2002b, 2002c], [Ueno and Santerre, 2000a], [Ueno et al., 2000a, 2000b],  [Michaud et al., 2000].

 

D’autre part, un système d’accostage de navires a été conçu en utilisant les observations de phase de récepteurs monofréquences L1 [UenoSt-Pierre et al, 1999],  [Ueno and Santerre, 2000b]. La position, la vitesse et l’attitude d’un navire ont été déterminées en utilisant 4 récepteurs sur un navire et une station de référence localisée près d’un port. Les résultats ont été comparés à ceux d’autres senseurs tels qu’un gyroscope et une station totale d’arpentage [Ueno, Santerre and Kleusberg, 2000], [Ueno and Santerre, 1999a, 1999b].

Ces recherches en mode cinématique s’inscrivent dans les travaux du Groupe spécial d’études de l’Association Internationale de Géodésie (AIG), SSG 1.179 : Wide Area Modelling for Precise Satellite Positioning.

 

Intégration GPS-Glonass

Des algorithmes et un logiciel permettant le traitement des mesures de code et de phase Glonass ont été développés [Biron, 2000a, 2000b, 2001]. L’intégration des mesures GPS et Glonass a aussi été effectuée. Les transformations entre les systèmes de coordonnées et les échelles de temps ont été tenues en compte. Une stratégie de résolution des ambiguïtés de phase Glonass a été validée. Celle-ci est différente de celle applicable aux mesures de phase GPS puisque les fréquences des ondes porteuses des satellites Glonass sont différentes d’un satellite à l’autre.

 

Auscultation topographique GPS

Suite aux études de déformation du pont suspendu Pierre-Laporte à Québec par le Centre de Recherche en Géomatique en 1997, d’autres algorithmes encore plus performants ont été développés afin d’exploiter le plein potentiel du système GPS pour ce type d’applications. Les améliorations portent sur la pondération des observations de phase et le calibrage des centres de phase des antennes GPS. Une comparaison entre les résultats du calibrage en chambre anéchoïque et la poutrelle de calibrage développée au CRG a été effectuée. Des expériences de profilage de rails de chemins de fer, en mode cinématique, ont été menées. Les résultats ont été comparés avec ceux obtenus à l’aide d’instruments d’arpentage conventionnels (station totale et nivellement géométrique de précision). Ces comparaisons ont permis de valider la haute qualité du positionnement GPS en de telles situations [Akrour, 2002].

 

Positionnement relatif temporel GPS

Une approche permettant le positionnement relatif à l’aide d’un seul récepteur GPS a été testée [Michaud and Santerre, 2000, 2002], [Michaud, 2000, 2001]. Cette approche consiste à cumuler des observations de phase sur un premier point dont les coordonnées sont connue et ensuite à se déplacer (en gardant le contact sur les satellites) vers un 2e point dont on veut déterminer les coordonnées. Les observations de phase sont cumulées sur ce 2e point. Par la suite les observations, non simultanées, sont combinées entre les 2 stations. Les ambiguïtés de phase s’éliminant, s’il n’y pas eu de sauts de cycle. Cependant, les erreurs variables dans le temps ne s’éliminent pas. Ce qui fait que les erreurs croissent avec le temps. Le retour sur le 1er point connu permet de réduire cette accumulation d’erreurs. Des précisions centimétriques sont alors atteignables pour des intervalles de temps de quelques minutes [Balard, 2003].

 

Sonde d’arpentage GPS

Une sonde d’arpentage consistant en un jalon sur lequel est disposé 2 antennes GPS permet de relever des points difficiles d’accès. De cette façon l’utilisateur n’est plus contraint à tenir le jalon GPS à la verticale du point à relever. L’inclinaison de la sonde permet aussi d’éloigner les antennes des sources d’obstructions potentielles [Bourgon, 2000], [Bourgon et al., 2002], [Santerre et al., 2000b, 2001]. Un brevet d’invention américain a été accordé pour ce nouvel appareil. Un brevet canadien devrait être délivré pour cette invention dans les prochains mois.

Une version semblable utilisant un jalon à 2 prismes avec une station totale a aussi été développée et testée [Bourgon et al., 2003].

 

Étude de la performance d’athlètes de sports olympiques par GPS

De premiers tests sur l’étude de la performance d’athlètes de niveau olympique ont été effectués avec la technologie GPS [Maltais et Santerre, 1999]. Par la suite, [Lambert, 2002] a étudié plusieurs sports dont le patinage de vitesse longue piste, le ski alpin, le canoë-kayak et le cyclisme. Les derniers tests utilisaient des récepteurs RTK avec affichage des résultats en temps réel pour que les entraîneurs puissent analyser les courses in-situ. La position, la vitesse et l’accélération des athlètes sont aussi couplées à d’autres informations telles que le rythme cardiaque, la vitesse des vents et des images de vidéo numérique.

 

Agriculture de précision et GPS

Une importante subvention de la Fondation Canadienne pour l’Innovation a été octroyée à un groupe de chercheurs de l’Université Laval et McGill University. Les équipements serviront à supporter des recherches en agriculture de précision. Un des aspects de ces recherches portera sur  le positionnement et le guidage de véhicules à l’aide du GPS. Une première étude sur la création de modèle numérique de terrain (MNT) avec l’approche GPS-RTK a été complétée récemment [Parent, 2001], [Parent et al., 2000, 2001].  Auparavant, Scully [1999] avait allié les SIG et GPS pour une meilleure gestion des épandages d’engrais organiques.

 

GPS-photogrammétrie

Un projet alliant le GPS et la photogrammétrie a été réalisé, il portait sur le développement d’un outil photogrammétrique pour la reconnaissance de nouveaux sites GPS [Sanscartier et al., 1999] et [Sanscartier, 1999].

 

Télédétection-Interférométrie Radar et GPS

Moisan [1999], [Moisan and Santerre, 2000]  ont étudié le potentiel de l’utilisation du système GPS pour la détermination de l'attitude de satellites à basse altitude, particulièrement pour le satellite canadien de télédétection Radarsat. L’intégration du GPS aux traitement d’interférogrammes Radar a aussi été réalisée [Vincent, 2001]. Les interférogrammes étaient créés à partir d’images Radar provenant des satellites européen ERS et canadien Radarsat. Les estimés des délais troposphériques et la cartographique du contenu d’électrons dans l’ionosphère obtenues d’un mini-réseau de récepteurs GPS ont servi à corriger les artefacts atmosphériques présents dans les interférogrammes Radar.
