Data Fusion/Evidence
Method evidence record

Data Fusion

Data fusion is a multi-level process that combines data and information from multiple sensors and sources to achieve improved accuracy, completeness, and confidence in estimates that cannot be obtained from any single source alone. Formally introduced as the Joint Directors of Laboratories (JDL) model by Hall and Llinas in 1997, the framework organizes fusion into hierarchical processing levels ranging from raw signal combination to higher-order situation and threat assessment.
