摘要：Location-based online collaborative platforms are proving to be an effective and widely adopted solution for geospatial data collection, update and sharing. Popular collaborative projects like OpenStreetMap, Wikimapia and other services that collect and publish user-generated geographic contents have been fostered by the increasing availability of location-aware palmtop devices. These instruments include GP S-enabled mobile phones and low-cost GPS receivers, which are employed for quick field surveys at both professional and non-professional levels. Nevertheless, data collected with such devices are often not accurate enough to avoid heavy user intervention before using or sharing them. Providing tools for collecting and sharing accuracy-enhanced positioning data to a wide and diverse user base requires to integrate modern web technologies and online services with advanced satellite positioning techniques. A web-based prototype system for enhancing GPS tracks quality and managing track logs and points of interest (POI), originally developed using standard GPS devices, was tested by using goGPS software to apply kinematic relative positioning (RTK) with low-cost single-frequency receivers. The workflow consists of acquiring raw GP S measurements from the user receiver and from a network of permanent GPS stations, processing them by RTK positioning within goGPS Kalman filter algorithm, sending the accurate positioning data to the web-based system, performing further quality enhancements if needed, logging the data and displaying them. The whole system can work either in real-time or post-processing, the latter providing a solution to collect and publish enhanced location data without necessarily requiring mobile Internet connection on the field. Tests were performed in open areas and variously dense urban environments, comparing different indices for quality-based filtering. Results are promising and suggest that the integration of web technologies with advanced geodetic techniques applied to low-cost instruments can be an effective solution to collect, update and share accurate location data on collaborative platforms.
