Multi-sensor Data Fusion Based on Belief Functions and Possibility Theory: Close Range Antipersonnel Mine Detection and Remote Sensing Mined Area Reduction
Two main humanitarian mine action types may benefit from multi-sensor data fusion techniques: 1) close range antipersonnel (AP) mine detection and 2) mined area reduction. Data fusion for these two applications is presented here. Close range detection consists of detection of (sub-)surface anomalies that may be related to the presence of mines (e.g., detection of metals using a metal detector, ...
متن کاملSimplified Toolbar to Accelerate Repeated Tasks (START) for ArcGIS: Optimizing Workflows in Humanitarian Demining
This paper presents START (Simplified Toolbar to Accelerate Repeated Tasks), a new, freely downloadable ArcGIS extension designed for non-expert GIS users. START was developed jointly by the Geneva International Centre for Humanitarian Demining (GICHD) and the University of Geneva to support frequent workflows relating to mine action. START brings together a series of basic ArcGIS tools in one ...
متن کاملIntegration of different data bodies for humanitarian decision support: an example from mine action.
Geographic information systems (GIS) are increasingly used for integrating data from different sources and substantive areas, including in humanitarian action. The challenges of integration are particularly well illustrated by humanitarian mine action. The informational requirements of mine action are expensive, with socio-economic impact surveys costing over US$1.5 million per country, and are...
متن کاملEuropean Project of Remote Detection: SMART in a nutshell
This paper shortly describes the principles and ideas behind the project SMART, a European project intended to help Mine Action Centres (MAC) or Mine Action Authorities (MAA) in their task of area reduction by providing a GIS-based environment with specific tools to ease the interpretation work of the operator. Using multi-spectral optical data as well as SAR data obtained during a flight campa...
متن کاملGeomatic Engineering in Humanitarian Demining
One of the most notable problem with the strongest impact on the civilian population during the war and specially after the war is the landmine problem. This paper describes Mine Information System (MIS) for Humanitarian Demining with the all necessary data and the way of bringing it together. Before the MIS implemented a lot of preparatory works has been done: marking of photogrammetric contro...
