Beyond the paper

Standards and internal reporting.

Standards

ASTM E54.09: response-robot standards

I contributed to ASTM E54.09 standards work through NIST by reviewing and updating ASTM E3132/E3132M-17 documentation in preparation for re-balloting. Standards work is how a lab-proven method becomes usable beyond its authors; the published standards belong to the committee as a whole.

Reports

Internal technical reporting

Some of the work lives in internal NIST technical reporting rather than public papers, including the outdoor small-UAS drop-test program and a 3D-mapping evaluation from a public-safety UAS challenge. Internal reporting is described here as internal reporting; it is not presented as a publication.

Reporting artifacts

The full wildfire test adaptation is documented in the case study.
