Abstract:

The objective of this project is to demonstrate advanced methods for the detection and classification of unexploded ordnance UXO in a production setting. At the Fort Ord demonstration, the specific classification objectives were 1. Demonstrate if large munitions, such as 155mm projectiles to a depth of 2 feet, can be confidently classified within the range of background conditions medium to high metallic density that exist in the Impact Area at Fort Ord. 2. Demonstrate if smaller munitions such as 40mm projectiles can be confidently classified within the range of background conditions at Fort Ord. 3. Classify all TOI.
