探测埋藏地雷的大多数传感器都受到地雷周围土壤性质的影响。土壤性质的时间和空间变异性是与大多数传感器相关的检测不确定性的重要部分。特别是，大多数传感器类型(例如探地雷达、热红外相机和化学嗅探器)都受到土壤水分的影响。然而，每种类型的传感器都以自己的方式对土壤水分和其他土壤特性的变化做出反应。由此导致的传感器性能变化对传感器融合操作具有严重影响。我们展示了土壤物理知识如何有助于更好地了解传感器的性能，并可以导致改进的数据融合。
Most sensors for the detection of buried landmines are influenced by the properties of the soil that surrounds the mine. The temporal and spatial variability in soil properties accounts for a significant part of the detection uncertainty that is associated with most sensors. In particular, most sensor types (e.g. ground-penetrating radar, thermal infrared cameras, and chemical sniffers) are affected by the water content of the soil. However, each sensor type reacts in its own way to variations in soil water content and other soil properties. The resulting variation in sensor performance has serious implications for sensor fusion operations. We show how knowledge of soil physics can contribute to a better understanding of sensor performance and can lead to improved data fusion.
