Abstract

This paper presents the Swedish land mine and UXO detection project "Multi Optical Mine Detection System," MOMS, and the research carried out so far. The goal for MOMS is to provide knowledge and competence for fast detection of mines, especially surface laid mines, by the use of both active and passive optical sensors. A main activity was to collect information and gain knowledge about phenomenology; i.e. features or characteristics that can give a detectable signature or contrast between object and background, and to carry out a phenomenology assessment. A large effort has also been put into a scene description to support phenomenology assessment and provide a framework for further experimental campaigns. Also, some preliminary experimental results are presented and discussed.
