Fusion of Security System Data to Improve Airport Security, Paperback / softback Book

Paperback / softback

  • Information

Description

The security of the U.S. commercial aviation system has been a growing concern since the 1970's when the hijacking of aircraft became a serious problem.

Over that period, federal aviation officials have been searching for more effective ways for non-invasive screening of passengers, luggage, and cargo to detect concealed explosives and weapons.

To assist in this effort, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) asked the NRC for a study of emerging screening technologies.

This book - the fourth of four - focuses on data fusion as a means to significantly improve the ability of the existing suite of airport detection systems and access control systems to detect and prevent attacks.

The book presents a discussion of the data fusion, an analysis of current data fusion efforts, and an assessment of data fusion opportunities for various airport security activities.
