Abstract :
The U.S. Coast Guard´s Aireye remote sensor system, its uses, and its future upgrades are discussed. The Aireye system is a remote sensor package integrated into the HU-25B aircraft stationed at US Coast Guard Air Station Cape Cod. This day/night all-weather system consists of a side-looking airborne radar, an infrared/ultraviolet line scanner, and a high-resolution reconnaissance camera. These are all integrated into a real-time digital sensor data management and display system
