A Feasibility Study of an Integrated Mobile Data Collection Platform Using an Air Cushion Vehicle. Volume 1
This is a study report on the feasibility of using the Bell Aerospace Company air cushion vehicle (Voyageur) as a mobile data collection platform in the Arctic. Specifically, the report covers seven areas where this vehicle would serve usefully in support of Naval Arctic Research Laboratory activiti...
