Abstract :
The Mobile Imaging and Spectroscopic Threat Identification (MISTI) system was developed by the Naval Research Lab to perform stand-off gamma ray detection of potential threat sources. A new method for localizing sources at standoff using proximity techniques has been developed and demonstrated using the MISTI system.
