OB_GINS
Optimization-Based GNSS/INS Integrated Navigation System
We open-source OB_GINS, an optimization-based GNSS/INS integrated navigation system. The main features of OB_GINS are as follows:
-
A sliding-window optimizer for GNSS/INS integration;
-
Abstract IMU-preintegration implementation, including:
- The normal IMU preintegration without the Earth's rotation consideration;
- The normal IMU/ODO preintegration;
- The refined IMU preintegration with the Earth's rotation consideration;
- The refined IMU/ODO preintegration;
-
Implementation of the marginalization;
-
Tools for attitude parameterization and coordinate frames;
-
Tools for file IO;
