2 EQUIPMENT USED IN THE PRESENT STUDY
As mentioned in the previous section, servo-type
accelerometers and two types of gyros were used in the
present study. Their specifications are listed in table 1
through table 3. As shown in figure 1, a strap-down
inertial navigation system was constructed by attaching
an accelerometer and a gyro to each of three mutually
orthogonal axes. Figure 2 shows the equipment made on
an experimental basis, which was used in the present
study.

3 MEASURMENT STRATEGY SUITABLE FOR
INERTIAL SURVEY
3.1 Route alignment
Experiments were performed on the asphalt-paved road
- with about 5.5 m elevation difference and 164 m inclined
length. Alignment of the road was measured in detail
using a total station and a digital level, and the result was
considered as the true alignment in the following
experiments concerned with our inertial survey system.
Figure 3 and 4 show the plane and the vertical alignment,
respectively, used in the experiments.
