On November 17, 2004, EarthData, in partnership with Raytheon Solipsys and Trex Enterprises, completed phase-1 development of the Airborne Rapid Imaging for Emergency Support (ARIES) system by conducting a full-scale demonstration at Picatinny Arsenal, New Jersey. The pre-prototype system confirmed ARIES’ capabilities to acquire multi-sensor aerial data and transmit it to the ground for near-real-time processing, product development, and dissemination.The cover images show the geo-referenced products of the November 17th demo including the thermal data (smallest, top layer), the orthophoto, the reflective surface lidar, and the bare earth lidar. ARIES and the demonstration are described in the article on pages357-360.
