OPERA TOPIC 1 Task Order Statement of Objectives (SOO)

1.0 OBJECTIVES: Contract/Topic 1

Understand gains in classification/recognition by fusion of LIDAR/RADAR data or features derived from physical phenomenology and characterizing the uncertainty in the system.

2.0 REQUIREMENTS Task Order 1:

The contractor shall plan, accomplish and manage the tasks set forth below:

2.1 Scientific investigations and engineering analysis of single mode sensors, identification of new or improved salient physics based features for obtaining target structural information and material properties.

2.2 Sensor/ Signature modeling and simulation efforts in a laboratory or virtual environment with emphasis on sources of error, uncertainty propagation and complementary multisensor features for recognition advancements.

2.3 Integration of Lidar/Radar research results into new algorithm to demonstrate recognition gains achieved in synthetically modeled environs.

3.0 DATA/DELIVERABLES

Deliverables for this effort shall consist of the following data items, as a minimum: users’ manuals, status and financial reports, and a final report. Contractor may propose additional data requirements that are necessary to manage the effort.
