Lessons learned on T&E of mechanical demining equipment

Two documents compiled by the ITEP working Group on Test and Evaluation of Mechanical Assistance Clearance equipment (WGMAE) were recently published at the ITEP reports website. The documents cover lessons learned from mechanical equipment performance trials carried out by ITEP Participants according to the CEN Workshop Agreement on Test and Evaluation of Mechanical Demining Machines (CWA 15044:2004) during the period 2005 - 2008. The documents were written as part of the currently ongoing update of the CWA 15044:2004 and compile experiences related to the effect of soil condition on measurements of ground penetration depth and machine performance.
