Advances in Classification Methods for Military Munitions Response
Wednesday, December 1, 1:45–5:00 pm

Participants received 3 professional development hours upon course completion.

Instructors:Dr. Thomas Bell – SAICDr. Stephen Billings  Sky ResearchDr. Dean Keiswetter  SAICDr. Herb Nelson  SERDP/ESTCP

Innovative classification methods for use in munitions response are now making a transition to the field through demonstrations on live munitions response sites. This short course provided a tutorial on the sensors, methods, and status of the classification of military munitions using geophysical methods. The course began with discussion on advanced processing of data collected with existing commercial instruments and then moved on to results and analysis of advanced EMI sensors.

ON-DEMAND VIDEO AVAILABLE: The on-demand video of this course covers advanced processing of data collected with existing commercial instruments and then moves on to results and analysis of advanced electromagnetic induction (EMI) sensors. Links to the modules are available below. In addition, the material in its entirety is available in PDF format.
