Remote Explosives Scent Tracing (REST) Workshop

GICHD | Geneva, Switzerland | 23 - 25 November 2010

The Geneva International Centre for Humanitarian Demining (GICHD) hosted a Remote Explosives Scent Tracing (REST) conference in Geneva. There were presentations by scientists, researchers, and operators from mine action programmes.  

The objective of the workshop was to finalise and share the knowledge gained through the GICHD-sponsored REST research programme, and it allowed participants to discuss future applications of REST.

The GICHD has since published, with the contributions of specialised authors, a document providing a valuable summary of the historical perspectives and empirical results gained from the research programme.
