MetalMapper: A Multi-Sensor TEM System for UXO Detection and Classification

Abstract

The over-arching objective of the demonstrations described in this report is to gain acceptance of MetalMapper system by the UXO community - including regulators. To achieve this objective, we must show by participating in blind demonstrations that the MetalMapper can indeed be used to "reliably" prioritize target lists for digging and thus reduce the number of false positive (i.e., non ordnance) items that need to be identified through excavation.
