Navigation calculations??

Posted by Achal Agrawal on July 3, 2008 at 11:49am

Hi everyone!I need to write the code for navigation calculations(distance and bearing) for my UAV project. I went through some of the methods like pythagorus & haversine but I am really confused. Can somebody share the code/method which has been succesfully tested. I am working on PIC18 microcontroller.RegardsAchal

The PIC18 will definitely limit you to the flat-earth approximations.

For ArduPilot, we're using Jordi's algorithms and code, which is based on this method.
