| Title: | From shipboard sighting to airborne reconnaissance and beyond: IIP seeks continuous improvement for methods of iceberg detection / Nicolas A. Jarboe. |
| Author(s): | Jarboe, Nicolas A. |
| Date: | 2005. |
| Abstract: | Describes history of iceberg detection by U.S. Coast Guard International Ice Patrol, from scouting with ships in search of southernmost iceberg, to aerial visual reconnaissance from 1946, introduction of airborne radar reconnaissance, and use of satellites, particularly RADARSAT from 1997 and now ENVISAT. Doubts that satellites will replace HC-130 aircraft as primary means for iceberg scouting, thanks to flexibility in directing aircraft and ability to identify ambiguous radar targets. |
| Notes: | Offprint: Proceedings of the Marine Safety and Security Council, the Coast Guard Journal of Safety at Sea. Spring :69-72. |
