    UAS ISR ServicesOverviewCAE and Aeronautics have teamed to perform analysis and demonstration flights of the Aeronautics Dominator XP unmanned aerialsystem (UAS) in Alma, Quebec. Under Project Miskam, which is the name given to the Canadian version of the UAS, CAE and Aeronauticsare demonstrating how unmanned systems can be used for commercial applications such as remote inspection of pipelines andhydroelectric installations, surveillance of forest fires, observation of critical natural resources, assessing natural disasters and a rangeof other applications.

    Combined with a diverse array of sensors suitable for civil, homeland security and defence-related market requirements, the MiskamUAS performs a wide range of intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) services. CAE is leveraging its modelling and simulationtechnologies as well as in-service support capabilities to develop a comprehensive offering of unmanned ISR services. The vast amount

    of information and intelligence that can be gathered by sensors on the Miskam UAS can be collected in a simulation-based syntheticenvironment and then used to support decision-making based on integrated information.

    The Miskam UASThe Miskam UAS is the Canadian version of the AeronauticsDominator XP, which was originally developed for defencepurposes. This medium-altitude long endurance (MALE) UASis based on a Diamond DA-42 twin-engine aircraft that hasaccumulated more than half-million flying hours, thus making itone of the most reliable and safest unmanned systems worldwide.

    The benefits of using the proven Miskam UAS platform include: Reduced risk and cost Long range and persistence Simple to operate Data gathering and analysis for improved decision-making Superior airworthiness, all-weather ight capability Low logistic footprint and deployable solution

    Potential missions and usersCAE and Aeronautics have initiated a comprehensive researchand development program to demonstrate and evaluate a rangeof possible commercial applications for the Miskam UAS, and

    have engaged potential users from government and industry toparticipate in the project. The flexibility and capability of the MiskamUAS, combined with the valuable information collected by its sensorpayloads, is creating new opportunities to perform a variety ofmissions more safely, efficiently and cost-effectively.

    Some of the potential missions to be performed by the MiskamUAS include: Intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) applications Aerial visual inspection infrastructures Geographical, geological and resources air mapping Geographic information system (GIS) Light Detection And Ranging (LIDAR) mapping Magnetic surveys and maritime patrol Arctic ice reconnaissance and characterisation

    Some of the potential commercial industry and government users

    of UAS ISR services include: Forest res protection agencies Homeland security and defence Search and rescue First responder agencies Oceans and sheries agencies Weather and environment Coast Guard Oil and gas industry Strategic infrastructures and sensitive facilities Natural resources Mining industry

    Project Examples

    Forest Fire SupportCanada is home to vast uninhabited territories and forestry natural resources where surveillance for

    early detection and support for rapid suppression of forest fires is crucial. The Miskam UAS, carrying its

    state-of-the-art sensors, can offer a safe and low cost solution to fly over areas where smoke and heat

    is dense. The Miskam UAS can go places where it would normally be too distant or risky for aircrews to

    fly over. A range of sensors combined with modeling and simulation technologies will provide the toolsrequired to analyse data effectively for just-in-time decision making to detect and support suppression

    of forest fires. UAS support to the fire-fighters provides an increased level of safety and effectiveness,

    hence protecting lives and natural resources.

    Observation of natural resourcesThere is an increasing demand for cost-effective and efficient observation of natural resources such as

    bodies of water, shore inspection, glacier movement, mineral deposits, forest, crop health monitoring,

    and wildlife monitoring. Imagery gathered by sensors on the Miskam UAS combined with modeling

    and analysis tools can reduce cost of labour and time required to manually perform these inspections.

    Inspection of power-lines and pipelines installationsThe Miskam UAS and its sensors can be used to perform long range inspections of ground equipment

    or infrastructure facilities over vast surfaces for pipelines, roads, and hydroelectric installations.

    CAEs UAS ISR solutions will combine modeling and simulation technologies to provide just-in-time

    critical information for decision makers to increase safety, security, and cost efficiency.
