I—The Inertial Reference Platform in Civil Aviation

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  18 January 2010

Abstract

The objects of this paper are to present in perspective the range of application of inertial techniques that are available for civil use and to suggest how the information that can be obtained by this means relates to that from other airborne sources.

Type
