Abstract

To monitor the whole Shanghai Expo Park, a vehicle tethered aerostat optoelectronic monitoring platform with the characteristic of time-sensitive and all-weather monitoring is described in detail in this paper, which is hung beneath the tethered balloon and equipped with a variety of payloads, including visible light monitoring system, infrared monitoring system, hyperspectral monitoring system, GPS/INS system, monitoring and control system and so on. These equipments can be used for real-time monitoring, environmental monitoring, and ground target location of Shanghai Expo Park. The output High Definition (HD) image of Shanghai Expo Park from visible light monitoring system is clear and stable, and the stabilization accuracy of visual axis is 0.07°(3δ). The optoelectronic monitoring platform system uses the target location technology based on Global Position System/Inertial Navigation System (GPS/INS) system to output real-time location data compatible with Geographic Information System (GIS). Test results show that the maximum errors between the location results (latitude and longitude) solved by the target location program and the reference target are 0.2 0/00(latitude) and 2 0/00(longitude). Now the whole system has been used for surveillance the Shanghai Expo Park since April 2010.
