Abstract:

Keweenaw Research Center KRC participation in the Basic Technology Initiative Smart Weapons Operability Enhancement BTISWOE Program, including contributions in the program 5 three primary developmental areas, are reported and summarized. In the area of background measurement and characterization, data and results from KRC participation in the 1990 Forest Ecosystem Dynamics - Multisensor Aircraft Campaign FED MAC are presented. FED MAC data and KRC Standard Scenes data were prepared for incorporation to the information data base being established by the BTISWOE program. The Physically Reasonable Infrared Signature Model PRISM, developed by KRC, was made available to the BTISWOE modeling effort. Work with software for calculating scene statistics and metrics for infrared imagery is described. Recent developments of PRISM and of image processing software are summarized.
