NPS Teams with Thailand to Test Wireless surveilland-and-tracking networks
Description
A Naval Postgraduate School (NPS) faculty-student team joined forces with 11 Navy Reservists in May and June to field test a rapidly deployable surveillance and tracking network in a drug interdiction exercise in Thailand, the longest standing U.S. treaty partner in Asia. Data from unattended air, ground and underwater sensors, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), balloons and speedboats was fed into a Tactical Operations Center (TOC) and Royal Thai Armed Forces command, control, computers and intelligence (C4I) centers.
