Overview
The MagDrone R4 is an ultra-lightweight magnetometer with 5 triaxial Fluxgates to be attached to any UAV capable of carrying 2 kg of payload.
In contrast to the MagDrone R3, the MagDrone R4 is used for high-resolution mapping in order to detect small and compact objects as well as structures in the ground, such as UXO or archaeological features.
Note that the general rule with a magnetometer, when it is necessary to detect artificial objects or artefacts – fly as low as possible. Recommended altitude for tasks like UXO search – 1m above the surface or even lower. That means that the drone should be equipped with a terrain following system (included in the recommended magnetometer bundle).
UXO/landmines detection note
The system is capable of detecting a range of items, starting from hand grenades (the estimated sensor-target distance for detecting an object such as the F1 hand grenade is 0.5 m) till big UXO like aerial bombs at distances of a few meters.
While magnetometers can detect some types of landmines (for example, M15, M6, TM-62M anti-tank mines; M16, PROM-1, OZM-3, OZM-4, OZM-72 anti-personnel mines and similar types with considerable amounts of ferrous metal), landmine search is not a direct application of magnetometers as they can’t detect most types of modern landmines. That means that the system should be used to confirm the absence of landmines (and small ordnance) in certain area but it can be a valuable asset during Non-Technical Survey (NTS) or Technical Survey (TS) to confirm the presence of UXO/landmines with a considerable amount of ferrous metals.
