dc.description.abstract | In this report we summarize the capabilities and technical characteristics of our UAV-borne UWB radar
system, designed for conducting snow surveys. We developed an ultrawideband snow sounder that is
capable of imaging snow stratigraphy with a 5 cm range resolution. The radar can be carried by an octocopter
UAV in order to carry out airborne snowpack surveys.
During a demonstration on Andøya, we showed that the radar was capable of resolving snow stratigraphy
in wet snow conditions, as well as detecting a buried person under 1.5 m of wet snow. In this report,
we present the results of the demonstration in detail. We furthermore discuss capabilities and incapabilities
of our radar system and offer a list of future steps to bring it to an operational status. | en_US |
