In order to discuss the application of inertial gyroscope positioning technology in underground pipeline measurement,based on an engineering case,this paper analyzes the application of inertial gyroscope positioning technology in underground pipeline measurement.Firstly,the basic principle of inertial gyroscope positioning technology and the basic flow of underground pipeline measurement are introduced.Secondly,how to select the appropriate inertial gyroscope equipment and how to install the equipment and data acquisition are elaborated.Finally,this paper shows the application process of inertial gyroscope positioning technology in underground pipeline measurement through practical engineering cases,and the obtained results are analyzed and discussed.It can be seen from the analysis that the gyroscope uses inertia for positioning and is not interfered by the external environment.In the detection,the detector is not required to use a tracking device on the road,and it will not be interfered by any terrain,electromagnetic wave and magnetic field.Therefore,inertial gyroscope positioning technology has high accuracy and reliability in underground pipeline measurement,can effectively improve the measurement efficiency and accuracy,and provide strong support for underground pipeline management and maintenance.
