PROJECT AMPIRT. ARPA MULTIBAND PHOTOGRAPHIC AND INFRARED RECONNAISSANCE TEST

Abstract

The objective of Project AMPIRT (ARPA Multiband Photographic and Infrared Reconnaissance Test) is to accomplish a cooperative ARPA/Air Force/C0- contractor program to study the use of multiband aerial photographic and full spectrum infrared sensors in detecting target clues in a counter insurgency (COIN) environment. The report contains a summary of test plans, a description of the synthesis of the photographic system, the results of camera and photometric equipment calibrations, and a report on Zone of the Interior (ZI) test results which demonstrated acceptable performance of the system.
