The goal of this research was to discover the optimal flight times in which to operate small unmanned aircraft systems (sUAS) to collect viable thermal images of landmine anomalies.

I decided on this research after reading an article by John Fardoulis et al. in the Journal of Conventional Weapons Destruction. Here is his article: Proof: How Small Drones Can Find Buried Landmines in the Desert Using Airborne IR Thermography.

John was kind enough to provide me with thermographic images to analyze and tossed me a curve ball with an outlier data point.  Thanks John!
