OSINT-Augmented RF Emitter Geolocation at City Scale: Mission-Aware Sensor Fusion with Bayesian Tracking

We present a mission-aware fusion framework that geolocates RF emitters at city scale by
combining real-time measurements (bearing/ToA/TDoA/SNR/beam confidence) with OSINT-derived spatial/temporal priors (FCC records, building/permit
graphs, Wi-Fi maps, and on-chain timing). A Bayesian
tracker maintains a belief over candidate sites while a
lifecycle-verified mission orchestrator triggers tasking
under latency budgets. We quantify gains from OSINT
priors, reductions in sorties, and time-to-convergence.
