A number of imaging and nonimaging sensor devices and systems are being developed to meet these information needs. The varieties and quantities of data currently requiring analysis are voluminous and demanding.Forthcoming real-time sensors will compound the data handling and information extraction responsibilities. To accommodate these input levels and provide only necessary and sufficient intelligence to the commander, prudent screening and integration/fusion of the information must occur to preclude inundation and promote maximum synergistic benefit to the final user. What is real-time imagery exploitation. It is the detection, classification, and reporting of a target at the instant the sensor is imaging it. Obviously, it is impossible for people to perform these tasks without some lapse of time between target illumination/acquisition and target report transmission. So, theoretically we can conclude at the outset that nonautomatic real-time exploitation of sensor imagery is impossible and therefore unrealistic. Now we can address a more realistic question - 'How close to real time can we get?' This paper does not pretend to address the entire gamut of intelligence collection and dissemination. Rather, the intent is to summarize the accomplishments which have been made in radar imagery exploitation during the period since 1976 when data linking became a reality. At a time when photo and infrared data linking is being initiated, the wealth of information derived and experience gained with the operational AN/UPD-4 side-looking airborne radar (SLAR) should be utilized in guiding their developments.
