  • Persistent Surveillance Over Wide Areas

    ESEN Airborne Wide Area Surveillance System (AWAS), which is a wide-area motion imagery (WAMI) solution, provides persistent surveillance from aerial platforms. AWAS system designed to be integrated into manned surveillance aircrafts and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in Class III (MALE/HALE).

    Unlike straw-alike looks and small circle projections of traditional airborne surveillance systems, AWAS provides holistic surveillance over very large areas (~10 km2) via imagery sensors. While surveilling the overall picture, AWAS is capable of utilizing multiple live feed chip-outs of areas of interest at a very high resolution (~20 cm GSD).

    Capabilities:

    • Proven high performance over various terrain (Urban areas, mountainous areas, etc.)
    • Live presentation of detected objects on 3D Geographical Information System (GIS) 
    • Simultaneous moving target detection & tracking, up to 2000 objects (Humans, vehicles, etc.) 
    • Live feed of multiple areas of interest at high resolution (chip-out) 
    • Geo-registration & ortho-rectification 
    • On-board image processing and data recording 
    • Geolocation of detected objects 
    • Seek, pause, search and replay functions 
    • Definition of alarm and interest region, event marks
