INTRODUCTION
IR imagery is a vital asset to the field commander. It is an alternative to conventional imagery.
The method for using heat sensing devices, imaging returns, and then providing interpretive
information from the imagery has been in existence for nearly 40 years. Some details of
operational IR sensors are classified and are not discussed in this lesson.
