Abstract :
Delft University of Technology has just finished its major efforts in a most challenging project, supported by the Dutch Technology Foundation STW. This four-year project entitled "Advanced relocatable multi-sensor system for buried landmine detection" was the largest project in STW history. Within the scope of this project we have built up a unique expertise and knowledge in the whole GPR chain starting from all aspects in GPR technology and finishing with target classification and soil characterization. The paper describes the goals and results within this project.
