Abstract


Demining is GIS
Track: Defense and Intelligence
Author(s): Bjorn Liszka

Five thousand mines in a depot is logistics; 5,000 deployed mines is geography. Mines and unexploded ordnance all over the world are still taking a toll as lifelong suffering or death. They strike blindly and effect innocent civilians already marked by war. The Swedish Armed Forces has taken on the task to boost clearing of the deadly legacy left in countries plagued by war. One cost-effective and secure solution is the Explosive Ordnance Disposal Information System (EOD IS). See the EOD IS of today, hear about the EOD IS of tomorrow, and learn how to get deployed mines and UXO:s back into logistics and save lives.
