Terrestrial Ice Operations

Abstract

This effort will design and develop a capability to effectively utilize frozen inland water bodies, specifically located in complex Arctic and sub-Arctic environments, in the projection of forces and materials in support of homeland defense, humanitarian assistance and disaster relief. The incorporation of wide area to localized remote sensing assets for the determination of ice thickness, continuity, and strength will inform the development of tactical scale geospatial overlays. Data maturation and algorithm refinement will result in a near real time level-of-risk assessment for the safe and effective performance of on ice operations.
