Methodology family
Thermal IR
Techniques that measure emitted thermal radiation from the Earth's surface and atmosphere, enabling temperature retrieval and hotspot detection without requiring solar illumination.
Methodologies in thermal ir
- Land-surface temperature - emissivity retrieval Retrieves surface temperature and spectral emissivity from TIR radiance measurements; good for urban heat islands, drought stress monitoring, and surface energy balance studies.
- Thermal anomaly detection Identifies localised high-temperature events against background radiance; good for active fire detection, gas flare monitoring, and volcanic hotspot mapping.
