Zusammenfassung |
Icebergs are a natural hazard to maritime operations in polar regions.
Iceberg populations are increasing, as is the demand for access to both
Arctic and Antarctic seas. Soon the ability to reliably track icebergs may
become a necessity for continued operational safety. The temporal and spatial
coverage of remote sensing instruments is limited, and must be supplemented
with in situ measurements. In this paper we describe the design of a tracking
sensor that can be deployed from a fixed-wing aircraft during surveys of
Antarctic icebergs, and detail the results of its first deployment operation
on iceberg B-31. |
