The imager provides an image of an area into which a projectile is to be launched. The controller receives the image and an identification of a target within the image
A system for coordinating radar data and image data to track a flight of a projectile includes a radar, an imager, and a controller. The imager provides an image of an area into which a projectile is to be launched. The controller receives the image and an identification of a target within the image and identifies a target line connecting the target and a launch position of the projectile. The controller also receives data from the radar relative to at least a portion of a trajectory of the projectile, generates image based trajectory data by correlating the radar data and the image, and alters the image to include the image based trajectory data within the image and the target line within the image.

The system according to claim 1, wherein the target is identified by input received by the controller from a user. 4. The system according to claim 3, wherein the user input is generated by interaction with the first image. 5. The system according to claim 1, wherein the controller receives data corresponding to a distance from the imager to the target and determines based on the distance from the imager to the target and the data from the radar a deviation of the projectile between a direction of flight of the projectile and the target line. 6. The system according to claim 1, wherein the launch position of the projectile is within a field of view of the imager and a field of view of the radar, the controller determining the launch position based on the data from the radar. 7. The system according to claim 1, wherein the controller alters the second image while the projectile is in flight. 8. The system according to claim 1, wherein the controller determines a position of the portion of the trajectory within the second image and alters the second image to include a visual representation of the portion of the trajectory within the second image. 9. The system according to claim 8, wherein the controller alters the second image to include a visual representation of the target line. 10.

The method according to claim 15, wherein the distance from the launch position to the target is input by a user. 18. The method according to claim 14, wherein the distance from the launch position to the target is determined by the controller based on a comparison of an angular extent of the target within one of the images and a known size of the target. 19. A method for coordinating radar data and image data to track a flight of a projectile, comprising the steps of: receiving by a controller an image and an identification of a target within the image as well as radar data relating to at least a portion of a trajectory of a projectile traveling through a field of view represented by the image;identifying by the controller a target line connecting the target and a launch position of the projectile;generating by the controller image based trajectory data by correlating the radar data and the image; andaltering the image to include the image based trajectory data and the target line within the image, wherein the controller identifies a radar coordinate system corresponding to the data received from the radar and an image coordinate system corresponding to the image and correlates the data from the radar with the image by coordinate translating the data from the radar to the image coordinate system through a three dimensional translation and rotation. 20. A system for coordinating radar data and image data to track a flight of a projectile, comprising: an imager producing a plurality of images of a desired field of view;a radar tracking objects moving through at least a portion of the desired field of view;a controller receiving the images and an identification of a target within a first one of the images; the controller receiving data from the radar relating to at least a portion of a trajectory of a projectile traveling through the desired field of view, the controller identifying a target line connecting the target and a launch position of the projectile and generating image based trajectory data by correlating the radar data and at least a first one of the images, the controller altering a second one of the images to include the image based trajectory data and the target line, wherein the controller identifies a radar coordinate system corresponding to the data received from the radar and an image coordinate system corresponding to the images and correlates the data from the radar with the image by coordinate translating the data from the radar to the image coordinate system through a three dimensional translation and rotation. 21.
