Anyone who is currenly working in EOD/IEDD or similar areas of operation might be interested in "eXdata" an app for iphone and android systems.
The current version lists over 350 military and commercial explosive types and provides an instant database of charcteristics, performance data, identification features etc. It also has a very valuable blast analysis function which will give the operator an instant assessment of 1) noise impact 2) human injury and 3) danger areas - all based on variables of charge weight and explosive type as determined by the operator.
I have been using the android version for a while and it is an extremely useful addition to the mobile phone. The developers are in the process of writing an upgrade to contain more explosives in the database and to correct a few minor errors in the existing data.
I have no business connection with the developers but will declare that are they are former British Army Ammunition Technical Officers.
