A dual sensor system using a large number of inexpensive short range sensors can act as a valuable adjunct to surface surveillance radars, as well as provide a low cost tracking system for non-radar equipped airports. A measurement program was conducted to collect data on magnetic and infrared signatures of aircraft and other vehicles on airport surfaces. The data indicates that short range sensors can provide detection and tracking of vehicles, and may be able to perform some classification function.<>
