About

Remote sensors expand the commander's view of the battlefield. Remote sensors provide a means to economically conduct continuous surveillance of vast areas, contributing key information to the intelligence collection effort. These actions decrease the number of personnel required for reconnaissance and surveillance activities, while also reducing the risk associated with conducting them. Sensors, relays, and monitoring devices are employed in an integrated network, providing general surveillance, early warning, or target indication over selected areas of the battlefield. Key considerations in employing remote sensors are the nature of the target, characteristics of the area of operations, time, and resources available for emplacing the sensor network, and the location and connectivity of the sensor monitoring sites.
