We introduce a new mobile, simultaneous terrestrial and aerial, geodata collection and post-processing method: mapKITE. By\udcombining two mapping technologies such as terrestrial mobile mapping and unmanned aircraft aerial mapping, geodata are\udsimultaneously acquired from air and ground. More in detail, a mapKITE geodata acquisition system consists on an unmanned\udaircraft and a terrestrial vehicle, which hosts the ground control station. By means of a real-time navigation system on the terrestrial\udvehicle, real-time waypoints are sent to the aircraft from the ground. By doing so, the aircraft is linked to the terrestrial vehicle\udthrough a “virtual tether,” acting as a “mapping kite.”\ud  \udIn the article, we entail the concept of mapKITE as well as the various technologies and techniques involved, from aircraft guidance\udand navigation based on IMU and GNSS, optical cameras for mapping and tracking, sensor orientation and calibration, etc.\udMoreover, we report of a new measurement introduced in mapKITE, that is, point-and-scale photogrammetric measurements [of\udimage coordinates and scale] for optical targets of known size installed on the ground vehicle roof. By means of accurate posteriori\udtrajectory determination of the terrestrial vehicle, mapKITE benefits then from kinematic ground control points which are\udphotogrametrically observed by point-and-scale measures.\ud  \ud\udInitial results for simulated configurations show that these measurements added to the usual Integrated Sensor Orientation ones\udreduce or even eliminate the need of conventional ground control points –therefore, lowering mission costs– and enable selfcalibration\udof the unmanned aircraft interior orientation parameters in corridor configurations, in contrast to the situation of\udtraditional corridor configurations.\ud  \ud\udFinally, we report about current developments of the first mapKITE prototype, developed under the European Union Research and\udInnovation programme Horizon 2020. The first mapKITE mission will be held at the BCN Drone Center (Collsuspina, Moià, Spain)\udin mid 2016
