Zusammenfassung:	A pod (20) has a rotatable housing (22) and a motor (26) for driving the rotatable housing (22) to rotate. The rotatable housing (22) includes an image capture device (32) for capturing an electromagnetic image and a radar transmitting and capturing device (36) for capturing a radar image. The motor (26) is operable to change an orientation of the rotatable housing (22) relative to a pod housing (25), such that a desired one of the electromagnetic image capture device (32) and the radar transmission and reception system (36) faces an area that is to be studied.
