Wide Area Surveillance - Overseas Contingency Operations (OCO)

Abstract

The Wide Area Surveillance program operationalized wide area surveillance technologies for accelerated transition to DoD programs and systems. Technologies of specific interest included sensor models with sufficient accuracy to support tactical targeting; integrated ground-airborne processing; and advanced processing, exploitation, and dissemination for the ARGUS-IS and ARGUS-IR next generation wide area electro-optical (EO) and IR sensors. Additional capabilities for long duration missions, such as those needed by advanced airships, were also developed. The efforts are transitioning to the Army AAA QRC, Air Force Gorgon Stare QRC, Air Force Blue Devil Block 2 QRC, Air Force Broad Area Surveillance Sensors (BASS) Program, and the Army Long Endurance Multi-Intelligence Vehicle (LEMV) Program.
