The inertial measurement unit is an electronic device built-in practically in any controlled or autonomous technology used for land mapping. It is based on a combination of accelerometers and gyroscopes and sometimes magnetometers used for relative orientation and navigation. The paper is focused on functions and trends of an inertial measurement unit, which is a part of inertial navigation indicator of position and velocity of moving devices on the ground, above and below ground in real-time.
