Lab 8: Thermal & Multispectral Analysis

Wildfire Hotspots

This week we used ArcMap and EDRAS Imagine to create composite multispectral images. Then we adjusted the images band combinations and symbology in order to identify features in the image. In this image of the Ecuador Coast, I adjusted the bands to contrast wildfire hotspots. In the true color image, two of the five hotspots had no smoke plume visible and may have gone unnoticed with out the aid of thermal imagery.
