The engineering DEM is useful to evaluate resources and design management strategies.Objective: To evaluate the technical-operational feasibility of generating DEMs from total station (TS) topographic surveys, GPS RTK and aerial photogrammetry using an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV).Methodology: A 20x20 m grid was traced in a plot without vegetation (1.4 ha) located in Montecillo, Estado de México, and topographic surveys were carried out with three methods, from which DEMs were generated for graphic and statistical evaluation and by tracing contour lines. Results: The estimated statistical errors were 0.15, 0.15 and 0.02 m, for TS vs. UAV, GPS RTK vs. UAV and TS vs. GPS RTK, respectively.Study limitations: The instruments used and the geographical conditions of central Mexico may be a reason for variation when extrapolating the results with other devices.Originality: A methodology is provided to generate DEMs accurately. The results allow the user to make reasoned choices based on the equipment available.Conclusion: The DEMs generated with TS and GPS RTK data have a smaller error than the one obtained from UAVs. The use of UAV helps in the representation of the terrain, since it generates a dense cloud of points that strengthens the procedure for topographic surveys. 2020 artículo científico 2007-3925 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=688672121004 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/6886/688672121004/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/6886/688672121004/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/6886/688672121004/688672121004.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/6886/688672121004/movil 10.5154/r.inagbi.2020.01.005 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=6886 Ingeniería agrícola y biosistemas application/pdf Universidad Autónoma Chapingo Ingeniería agrícola y biosistemas (México) Num.2 Vol.12 |
