Understanding ISR
Riverside Research Institute (RRI) offers a classified course that introduces current and future sensors used for ISR. These sensors include traditional imaging sensors in the visible, infrared and radar, spectral and polarimetric imaging sensors, and persistent surveillance sensors in the visible and infrared. NOT included are SIGINT sensors or non-electromagnetic sensors, such as seismic.
Who should attend?
Program managers, collection managers, technologists, and analysts in both the Federal and the industrial sectors are encouraged to attend.
What students will learn
Students will spend one day surveying the electromagnetic spectrum, platforms, applications, visible and infrared sensor data collection techniques, radar collection techniques, and other technical issues. In the remaining two days, each of the sensor types listed above will be explored in terms of current sensors grouped by altitude, regime, capabilities and applications, TCPED (Tasking, Collection, Processing, Exploitation, and Distribution) agencies, sensor trends, and planned future systems.
