Multi-Sensor Exploitation

Abstract

The Multi-Sensor Exploitation program provided multi-sensor exploitation capabilities enabling missions such as overwatch, border surveillance, high value target tracking, and threat network detection using mixes of imaging, radar, signals, human intelligence, and other sources. New processing techniques for hyperspectral imaging sensors enabled long duration tracking of vehicles and dismounts. Scalable stochastic modeling and inference techniques yielded improved situation awareness and assessment for wide-area electro-optical/IR motion imaging, radar, and multi-sensor exploitation applications in settings where large numbers of interacting entities engaged in complex activities are observed over long periods of time. The techniques are intended for use in riverine and maritime environments, where extremist and criminal groups threaten political stability, trade routes, and free commerce, map navigable tributary systems, detect and identify threats, and monitor their activity. Potential transition partners include USAFRICOM, USSOUTHCOM, USSOCOM, and intelligence agencies.
