This publication focuses on remote explosive scent tracing (REST), which is a process of taking scent from a source for remote analysis. The authors state that REST proved to be fast and efficient, and justification for its use included the finding of anti-vehicle mines in roads that had previously been cleared using manual techniques. This report identifies the key elements of REST, reviews research currently underway to address those elements, and speculates on the future operational use of the technology.
