Ground Control Points (GCPs), the checker-board pattern you see on the sidewalk here, are used to visually identify known points (X,Y,Z) in drone photogrammetry and laser scan data, to tie it to the survey grid. This gives the data a common frame of reference (Coordinate Reference System) so when comparing to designs or other survey data you’re comparing everything in the same plane, apples = apples. I’ve helped many different clients utilize this cutting edge technique and enjoy finding these GCP targets in the wild.
