The invention discloses a method applied to an unmanned aerial vehicle for improving navigation calculating precision, and belongs to the field of aerial automation control. The method specifically comprises the following steps: 1, acquiring starting point information, destination point information and current position information of the unmanned aerial vehicle; 2, splitting longitude data, latitude data and height data of forty floating point types in the starting point, the destination point and the current position, so as to obtain a trigonometric function equation of the data of the forty floating point types; and 3, acquiring laterodeviation distance and laterodeviation speed according to the starting point information, the destination point information and the current position information obtained in step 1 of the unmanned aerial vehicle, and rectifying the deviation of a track route of the unmanned aerial vehicle according to the laterodeviation distance and the laterodeviation speed. According to the method applied to the unmanned aerial vehicle for improving navigation calculating precision, the navigation calculation of the forty floating point types is carried out, thus the intercepting error occurring in the operation can be reduced, and the calculation precision can be improved; once the position precision of a DGPS (Differential Global Positioning System) is 0.1m, the laterodeviation distance output precision under the navigation calculation of the forty floating point types can reach 0.3m, and thus the purposes of precise guiding, taking off and landing control can be met.
