Local-Rapid Evaluation of Atmospheric Conditions (L-REAC) System, Design and Development Volume 5 (Mobile L-REAC System Proof of Concept and Four Feasibility Studies)
Abstract
This report documents the design and construction of a Mobile Local-Rapid Evaluation of Atmospheric Conditions (L-REAC(registered))* System Proof of Concept, (PoC) as well as four feasibility studies, each representing starting thresholds for a wide variety of potential L-REAC(registered) Project growth. The L-REAC(registered) System concept was a product of the 2003 2007 White Sands Missile Range (WSMR) Urban Field Studies, which investigated the airflow and stability characterization around a single urban building and small building clusters. The primary goal for L-REAC(registered) is to improve Soldier/civilian situational awareness of environmental airborne hazards during potentially life-threatening events. L-REAC(registered) accomplishes this goal by mapping a near-real-time wind field and plume (when available) over an area of interest (AOI). From 2009 to 2012, the initial viewgraph technology has evolved into a PoC System (2009), a Prototype (2010), an Operational L-REAC(registered) System (2011) and now, a Mobile L-REAC(registered) System PoC (2012).
