GIS/GPS: Testing_week6+7

We tested/used the GPS during visiting our possible Case study locations. You can also get a good idea of the map and structure of the locations we have visited by viewing the tracks.

Paraisio de Osorio, 10-3-2009


The track of Paraisio de Osorio itself is accurate, only it seemed to be impossible to shift the time in a way that all the photos found the right location. A solution to this problem will be to synchronize the times of the camera and the GPS.


There are made many locations points at a place we didn’t mean to. Maybe the button was pressed without knowing it, next time no sitting on the GPS!

Santa Tecla, 11-3-2009


The track was pretty accurate, only when we entered a building there was some distortion.


The photos made in Las Collinas, our most important site to visit, configured with the right location points. Later on, travelling by car, the photos and the location points are not exactely put at the same place. It is probably even more important to have the time of the camera synchronized with the time of the GPS when travelling with a higher velocity.

Manantiales and Mejicanos, 12-3-2009



The track of Manantiales shows distortion at the places we stood still, this problem can be solved with the configuration, to log only when you have a minimum speed. In the Mejicanos track you see the exact same problem.

The camera was set on a different time zone then the GPS. We divided the project into two different projects, Manantiales and Mejicanos, because the time shifting gets easier with two different time frames for placing the photos accurate.

San Pedro Nonualco and Santa Maria de Ostuma, 13-3-2009



When we were in a building the track shows distortions. Next time we have to turn of the GPS when we are in a building.

The information of the GPS could be written easily into the pictures of the camera of Barbara's telephone, because the time of this camera is synchronized with the GPS.

Mejicanos, 18-3-2009



The GPS track is very accurate. The GPS information was written in the photos and they were are immediately correct placed. When we are in a building you see a little distortion. We booked a lot progress after doing all the tests and are ready to start mapping.

Ola grupo de El Salvador,

Vemos las porciones de imágenes similares, de lo que llaman los barrios aquí. Le escribo en Castellano, para mejorar sus habilidades, pues leemos que teneís intérpretes. ¿Cómo es ustedes Castellano (el programa de rosetta-stone nos está haciendo loco aquí)?

De todos modos somos interesado descubrir quién encontraba la estructura los ranchio en El Salvador? Aqui esta una organización absolutamente sofisticada de la construcción, que tristemente no es realmente terremoto resistente.

¡Buena suerte! A propósito, cuál es la influencia política en El Salvador en el reconstrucción del desastres: ¿presente, o todo el NGO y international?

Adiós

Los venezolanos
