Mine detection refers to the process of locating landmines and unexploded ordnance in areas where they pose a risk to safety. This is crucial in post-conflict regions, where mines can remain hidden for years, endangering civilians and hindering development. Various methods are employed, including metal detectors, ground-penetrating radar, and trained animals like dogs. The technology used in mine detection continues to evolve, improving accuracy and efficiency. Organizations such as the United Nations and Non-Governmental Organizations work to clear affected areas, ensuring safe access for communities. Effective mine detection is essential for humanitarian efforts and rebuilding efforts in war-torn regions.
