Abstract

The invention relates to a method for the autocalibration of an inertial rig comprising an inertial core defining a sensor reference frame, implemented in the course of at least two missions (M, M) each comprising the determination, on the basis of measurements of gyroscopes, of the orientation of the rig in a reference frame comprising the north axis (N) and the vertical axis (Up), the method comprising the implementation:—in the course of a mission (M), of an estimation () of drift errors of the gyroscopes for the orientation of the rig at least with respect to the north axis (dgyrN); and—in the course of a following mission (M), of a calculation () of corrections of drift errors (DX) of the sensor reference frame (X,Y,Z), on the basis of the estimated drift errors; and—of a calculation () of drift errors (X), consisting in correcting drift errors (X) of the sensor reference frame that were calculated during the previous mission (M).
