Innovative Techniques to Predict Atmospheric Effects on Sensor Performance

Abstract

The Boston College Institute for Scientific Research (ISR) is conducting innovative research in areas relating to development and demonstration of new technologies to predict atmospheric effects on sensor performance for acquisition, mission planning and employment of the Air Force's current and next generation electro-optical (EO) systems. Emphasis includes space-, air-, and groundbased EO systems, laser systems including the Airborne Laser (ABL), surveillance and lidar and radar remote sensing technologies.
