Gps/ins/pl/tls Integration Supporting Navigation of Geophysical Sensors for Unexploded Ordnance Detection and Discrimination
The primary objective of the research presented here is to develop high-accuracy and high-reliability geolocation algorithms and to prototype a hybrid system based on multisensor integration to improve geolocation of geophysical sensors at munitions and explosives of concern (MEC) sites. The current methods used at MEC sites for buried unexploded ordnance (UXO) detection are extremely expensive...
متن کاملNovel Sensor Geolocation Technology for Detection and Discrimination of Unexploded Ordnance
Reliable and accurate geolocation is essential for robust detection, discrimination and remediation of unexploded ordnance (UXO) and other munitions and explosives-of-concern (MEC). The MEC characterization and remediation activities using the currently available detection and geolocation technologies often yield unsatisfactory results, and are extremely expensive, due mainly to the inability o...
متن کاملA New Method for Multisensor Data Fusion Based on Wavelet Transform in a Chemical Plant
This paper presents a new multi-sensor data fusion method based on the combination of wavelet transform (WT) and extended Kalman filter (EKF). Input data are first filtered by a wavelet transform via Daubechies wavelet “db4” functions and the filtered data are then fused based on variance weights in terms of minimum mean square error. The fused data are finally treated by extended Kalman filter...

Sentinel-1A (S1A) is an Earth observation satellite carrying a state-of-the-art Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) imaging instrument. It was launched by the European Space Agency (ESA) on 3 April 2014. With the end of the in-orbit commissioning phase having been completed at the end of September 2014, S1A data products are already consistently providing highly accurate geolocation. StripMap (SM) m...
متن کاملIntegrating OpenStreetMap with Google Street View using image processing and machine learning
OpenStreetMap is rapidly expanding crowd-sourced data base of world map. This data, if integrated with visual information from Google Street View would be an immense store of information without manual crowd collection. This paper proposes a method of probabilistically evaluating values of heading or camera angle of Google Street View which points directly to the entity of interest whose latitu...
