During the 60th International Astronautical Congress (IAC) held in Daejeon, Korea, the International Astronautical Federation (IAF) and the Mineseeker Foundation announced a collaborative effort in the field of landmine stand-off detection using both Space and Airborne systems integrating remote-sensing, telecommunication and geo-localisation technologies.
A preliminary concept of this integrated application was elaborated by the International Astronautical Federation (IAF), in collaboration with the Mineseeker Foundation (MF). The IAF has contacted several potential partners among the Federation member organisations. It is now important to involve all relevant expertise to elaborate the system and thoroughly assess its feasibility, on both a technical and an economic standpoint. At last the study will pave the way to subsequent phases of development, prototyping and testing, prior to commercially launching the service. The feasibility study is expected to last about five months, starting in January 2010. A first operational commercial service is planned by August 2011. An enhanced service enabling reliable detection of individual mines is expected to be mature enough for operations by mid-2013.
And by the way no mention of any demo taking place anywhere on the web. Remember www stands for world wide web.
I hope the long's can hold out for 3 years it's going to be a long bumpy ride. I think we should re-label this deal Moneyswiper it seems to fit with what is going on here.
