Advanced discrimination methods and careful optimization of operational procedures are critical for efficient remediation of unexploded ordnance (UXO) contaminated sites. In this paper, we report on our experiences with a 200 acre magnetic survey that was collected and processed under production survey conditions at Chevallier Ranch, Montana. All anomalies with fitted moments above 0.05 Am2 were excavated. During the survey the magnetic remanence metric was predicted but not used to guide the discrimination. The retrospective analysis presented here reveals that discrimination using remanence would have significantly reduced the total number of anomalies (with good dipolar fits) that needed to be excavated, from 524 to 290 while still recovering all 69 UXO. The false alarm rate (FAR = number of non-UXOs excavated divided / number of UXO found) was reduced from 6.3 to 2.9. At a cut-off of 75% remanence, 77% of anomalies due to shrapnel and metallic debris and 64% of geological anomalies were rejected.Geological anomalies due to variations in magnetite concentration introduced a significant human-element into the interpretation process. Three different interpreters added a total of 305 additional anomalies that were not fit with a dipole model and which were later found to be non-UXO. Between 40 and 50% of anomalies picked by the two relatively inexperienced interpreters who analyzed the data turned out to be geology, as compared to 14% for an experienced interpreter. Critical analysis of results, operator training and feedback from the UXO technicians validating the anomaly are essential components towards improving the quality and consistency of the anomaly interpretations. This is consistent with the tenants of Total Quality Management (TQM). We compare the actual FAR that resulted during the survey when there was little feedback between UXO technician validation results, to a hypothetical result that could have been achieved had there been a constant feedback system in place at the onset of operations. Feedback would have significantly reduced the number of geological anomalies and decreased the FAR from 10.7 to 4.0.The hypothetical results presented here demonstrate the value of using TQM principles to guide the UXO remediation process. They further show that improvements in the efficiency and costs of UXO remediation require both technological advances and operational optimization of the technology when implemented in a production setting. Furthermore, by treating geophysical modeling and UXO validation as separate entities, both with respect to contracting and operational reporting, there is little incentive for the geophysicist to leave an anomaly off the dig-sheet. Only potential negative consequences will result if that anomaly is later found to be a UXO. An incentive based mechanism that rewards the geophysicist for reductions in follow-on costs would have a strong potential to reduce the number of unnecessary excavations, and hence reduce the total cost of the UXO remediation effort. 相似文献

This paper investigates the use of strip transect sampling to estimate object abundance when the underlying spatial distribution
is assumed to be Poisson. A design-based rather than model-based approach to estimation is investigated through computer simulation,
with both homogeneous and non-homogeneous fields representing individual realizations of spatial point processes being considered.
Of particular interest are the effects of changing the number of transects and transect width (or alternatively, coverage
percent or fraction) on the quality of the estimate. A specific application to the characterization of unexploded ordnance
(UXO) in the subsurface at former military firing ranges is discussed. The results may be extended to the investigation of
outcrop characteristics as well as subsurface geological features. 相似文献

Geostatistical interpolation of object counts collected from multiple strip transects: Ordinary kriging versus finite domain kriging 总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2

Data collected along transects are becoming more common in environmental studies as indirect measurement devices, such as geophysical sensors, that can be attached to mobile platforms become more prevalent. Because exhaustive sampling is not always possible under constraints of time and costs, geostatistical interpolation techniques are used to estimate unknown values at unsampled locations from transect data. It is known that outlying observations can receive significantly greater ordinary kriging weights than centrally located observations when the data are contiguously aligned along a transect within a finite search window. Deutsch (1994) proposed a kriging algorithm, finite domain kriging, that uses a redundancy measure in place of the covariance function in the data-to-data kriging matrix to address the problem of overweighting the outlying observations. This paper compares the performances of two kriging techniques, ordinary kriging (OK) and finite domain kriging (FDK), on examining unexploded ordnance (UXO) densities by comparing prediction errors at unsampled locations. The impact of sampling design on object count prediction is also investigated using data collected from transects and at random locations. The Poisson process is used to model the spatial distribution of UXO for three 5000 × 5000 m fields; one of which does not have any ordnance target (homogeneous field), while the other two sites have an ordnance target in the center of the site (isotropic and anisotropic fields). In general, for a given sampling transects width, the differences between OK and FDK in terms of the mean error and the mean square error are not significant regardless of the sampled area and the choice of the field. When 20% or more of the site is sampled, the estimation of object counts is unbiased on average for all three fields regardless of the choice of the transect width and the choice of the kriging algorithm. However, for non-homogeneous fields (isotropic and anisotropic fields), the mean error fluctuates considerably when a small number of transects are sampled. The difference between the transect sampling and the random sampling in terms of prediction errors becomes almost negligible if more than 20% of the site is sampled. Overall, FDK is no better than OK in terms of the prediction performances when the transect sampling procedure is used. 相似文献

Non-linear inversion of controlled source multi-receiver electromagnetic induction data for unexploded ordnance using a continuation method 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
This work adopts a continuation approach, based on path tracking in model space, to solve the non-linear least-squares problem for discrimination of unexploded ordnance (UXO) using multi-receiver electromagnetic induction (EMI) data. The forward model corresponds to a stretched-exponential decay of eddy currents induced in a magnetic spheroid. We formulate an over-determined, or under-parameterized, inverse problem. An example using synthetic multi-receiver EMI responses illustrates the efficiency of the method. The fast inversion of actual field multi-receiver EMI responses of inert, buried ordnances is also shown. Software based on the continuation method could be installed within a multi-receiver EMI sensor and used for near-real-time UXO decision-making purposes without the need for a highly-trained operator. 相似文献

Buried unexploded ordnance (UXO) continues to be a difficult remediation problem from both a sensing and a discrimination
point of view. Modern approaches to both the sensing and discrimination problems utilize high bandwidth electromagnetic induction
(EMI) sensors to collect geo-referenced data which is then inverted, or fit, using a forward model in order to obtain features
that can be directly interpreted using the physics associated with electromagnetic induction-based sensing. These features
are then used in a variety of classification architectures. One aspect of this process that has captured recent interest is
that uncertainty in the positions at which data was collected can degrade the inversion performance and thus the subsequent
classification. Several mechanisms to address this issue have been explored that range from filtering and prediction of actual
positions to exploiting Bayesian approaches for uncertainty mitigation. In the Bayesian approach, a statistical model of the
position errors is used as a prior for integrating over the uncertainty in the inversion process. In this study, we demonstrate
that errors in the statistical priors used in this process can negatively impact subsequent classification performance, thus
highlighting the need for an accurate statistical model for the position errors. Next, we propose a mechanism by which to
obtain such models. Specifically, we utilize a Goff–Jordan rough surface model and simulate the sensor data collection system
motion over the simulated ground or ocean surfaces to calculate errors and generate statistical models. Our results suggest
that this approach can be used to develop the statistical models necessary for mitigating uncertain position information. 相似文献
