OCTOBER PRESENTATION - Airborne Methods for the Detection of Unexploded
Ordnance (UXO)

William E. Doll, Research Geophysicist, Environmental Sciences Division

Abstract - Airborne magnetic measurements can be acquired with a
boom-mounted helicopter system at 1.5-2m altitude. Test data at the
Badlands Bombing Range in South Dakota indicate that this system has the
ability to detect ferrous metals as small as 2 kg. Ongoing system
modifications are likely to improve sensitivity and allow similar
thresholds under less favorable geologic conditions.
