| Airborne Laser
Induced Fluorescence Imaging |
| This technology consists of an
airborne system using laser-induced fluorescence techniques for the
detection of uranium, heavy metals, organic compounds, and vegetation
stress due to uptake of contaminants. |
|
Developers:
| • |
US DOE, Special Technologies Laboratory, Santa
Barbara, CA | |
Applications:
| • |
Airborne instrument for surveying land, facility
exteriors, and vegetation over large geographic areas for
contaminants. | |
Benefits:
| • |
Allows aerial surveys for uranium on land surfaces
and facility exteriors costing much less than personnel walking and
taking samples | |
Status:
| • |
Demonstrated at Fort Rucker, Alabama, October
1997 | |
| Milestones:
IT - ITSR Publication;
PR - Peer Review; DP - Deployment; AI -
Available for Implementation; DM - Demonstration; BST
