Abstract

Dugway Proving Ground (DPG) is one of a network of proving grounds maintained by the US Army Test and Evaluation Command (TECOM). TECOM's mission is for development and acceptance testing within the major command, US Army Materiel Development and Readiness Command (DARCOM) and in that role TECOM has a primary responsibility in testing methodology. In 1976, DPG was designated by TECOM as the testing center for characterizing smoke and for measurement of EO system performance in smoke. The decision was based on the fact that DPG has long been involved with aerosol characterization as the chemical-biological-radiological (CBR) center.
