Abstract:

As advanced UXO classification is transitioned from the research community to industry, there is an increasing need to develop practical tools to aid in the application of this technology to live-site munitions response projects. This project has aimed to anticipate the requirements of industry by developing algorithms and software to aid in critical decisions that must be made by geophysical data analysts and project managers during the course of a munitions response project.
