Crater detection from commercial satellite imagery to estimate unexploded ordnance in Cambodian agricultural land

Detection of Unexploded Ordnance: An Introduction

In this chapter, we outline the statistical procedures that can be employed for the detection of unexploded ordnance (UXO). Phenomenological modeling is first developed to relate the collected data to a sensor’s feature parameters, which in turn allow for physics-based signal processing. Starting with the Bayesian framework, we introduce minimax and robust detection that do not require prior pr...

Marine Survey System for Detection of Unexploded Ordnance

With support from the Strategic Environmental Research and Development Program (SERDP) and Environment Security Technology and Certification Program (ESTCP), SAIC has developed and demonstrated a marine unexploded ordnance (UXO) survey system designed for use in shallow water (<9.1m). The air foil shaped sensor platform has two actuatorcontrolled elevators to control depth, altitude and attitud...

Development a split window algorithm to estimate land surface temperature from Sentinel -3 satellite data

Land Surface Temperature (LST) is an important indicator of the study of energy balance models at the earthchr('39')s surface and the interactions between the Earth and the atmosphere on a regional and global scale. To date, different algorithms have been developed in the last few decades to determine the land surface temperature using various satellite images. In this study, a new split window...
