    Accuracy of land parcel area measurement
    (2012) Kwinta, Andrzej
    In connection with direct subsidies to agriculture in European Union, each year hundreds of thousands of measurements of crops and allotments are performed. Area measurements are performed directly on site using geodetic or aerial photogrammetry methods. It is widely used for the control of the hand (navigation) satellite receivers. The receiver has recorded a trace of movement along the land. This measurement method is quick and not expensive. Comparison of results of measurements made in this type of technology with the allowable tolerance of an area shows that the theoretically obtained accuracy is sufficient. In real measurements a main source of error is improper identification of crops borders which – in many cases – are ambiguous.
