Abstract:

BACKGROUND USCG is in the process of acquiring improved infrared IR sensor systems for installation on standard rotary-wing platforms. Historically, IR sensor systems have not been used for primary detection work. Question remains, How can these high-tech sensors be best employed to assist in obtaining initial detections on hard-to-find targets
