ASSESSING UXOs USING DIGITAL RADIOGRAPHY
Unexploded ordnance (UXO) are explosive weapons such as bombs, shells, ammunition and mines that failed to explode and still pose a risk of detonation. UXOs aren't just a result of live fire training — in fact, many are a remnant of past conflicts including world wars. When UXOs are found, it's critical to quickly assess the threat and to understand if the device can be safely removed or has to be neutralized in a controlled explosion.
