Abstract : A preliminary detection algorithm and wavelet difference reduction (WDR) with region of interest priority compres-sion are combined to successful identify small targets in multispectral imagery. The technique addresses not only detection capability, but also practical unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) implementation restrictions. The restric-tions that are overcome are small processing capability and variable bandwidth datalinks.
