| Popis: |
Distributed sensors have been proposed to detect nuclear materials if they enter urban areas. Past work on small detector systems has shown that data fusion can improve detection. Here, we show how this could be done for a large detector network using Pearsons Method. We evaluate how a sensor network would perform in New York City using a combination of radiation transport and geographic information systems. We use OpenStreetMap data to construct a grid over the streets and analyze vehicle paths using pickup and drop off data from the New York State Department of Transportation. The results show that data synthesis in a large network not only improves the time to the first detection but reduces the number of missed sources. |
