Landmines and Spatial Development
Econometrica, Volume 93, Issue 5, Page 1739-1778, September 2025.Landmines affect the lives of millions in many conflict‐ridden communities long after the end of hostilities. However, there is little research on the role of demining. We examine the economic consequences of landmine removal in Mozambique, the only country to transition from heavily contaminated in 1992 to mine‐free in 2015. First, we present the self‐

A Biologically Based Chemo-Sensing UAV for Humanitarian Demining
International Journal of Advanced Robotic Systems, 2007 Antipersonnel mines, weapons of cheap manufacture but lethal effect, have a high impact on the population even decades after the conflicts have finished. Here we investigate the use of a chemo-sensing Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (cUAV) for demining tasks. We
