Coordinate System Problem; Kertau RSO / RSO Malaya (m) (EPSG:3168)

Hi, I've got problem with coordinate system (Kertau RSO: EPSG 3168). The potential position (yellow icon) is far away (approx 50 meters) from actual coordinates (blue icon) on ground.

It also happen for coordinate system GDM2000 / Selangor Grid (EPSG:3380).

Anyone can help me for this?

  • I used DJI Phantom 4 Pro for mapping, i dont think it GPS fault, maybe the conversion between local coordinate and WGS84 got problems.

  • Phantom Pro is lying about GPS altitude. In photo EXIF tags there are no GPS altitudes only barometric altitudes. You can check with exiftool. Rename "exiftool.exe" to "exiftool(-k -a -u -F -n).exe" and check any JPG from P4P you will see that "Absolute altitude" is exactly the same as GPS altitude but it is impossible as absolute altitude comes from absolute barometric pressure and can't align so well. DJI doesn't write GPS altitude for non-RTK Phantoms because it is too innacurate and can change between flights too much.

    Flight logs contain real gps values which you can check using log viewer( https://www.phantomhelp.com/LogViewer/Upload/) and export to kml or csv.

    Your best option is to adjust altitudes before aerotriangulation. Unfortunately Bentley doesn't try to add any better support for DJI products to correct such issues as it is done by Agisoft or Pix4D.
