Man Portable Gps/Geophysical Instrument Interface (A Practical Case Study)

In the past few years the emphasis for research in the geophysics, unexploded ordnance detection arena has been towards remote pilotless vehicles to collect data or knowledge base software. Although promising, both of these technologies are either prohibitively expensive in the competitive environment of UXO remediation, or time intensive. Both technologies tend to take the operator out of the equation. Unfortunately, many if not most UXO jobs take place in areas where a vehicle cannot operate or a canned knowledge base will tend to pick unacceptable quantities of false targets.
