The UXO Classification Demonstration at San Luis Obispo, CA

Abstract

Under a task titled "ESTCP/SERDP: Assessment of Traditional and Emerging Approaches to the Detection and Identification of Surface and Buried Unexploded Ordnance," the Institute for Defense Analyses (IDA) was assigned the responsibility to assist ESTCP in planning, executing, and scoring the classification demonstration carried out at San Luis Obispo, CA. IDA's principal functions were to provide seed emplacement locations and burial procedures, create a master anomaly list, develop scoring protocols, and score demonstrators' detection and classification results. This document provides a comprehensive final report describing the demonstration.
