摘要
An experiment on high resolution remote sensing of fires was conducted in the Oueme catchment area of Benin, West Africa using the Bispectral InfraRed Detection (BIRD) satellite. The high spatial resolution capability of the BIRD system allows the detection of fires with active burning areas less than a few hundred square metres in the sub-pixel domain, as well as the estimation of quantitative characteristics of these fires, such as the radiative fire energy release and (less accurately) the effective fire temperature and area.
