Landsat 8 hotspots

<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><P><SPAN>CCMEO is currently testing Pinkmatter’s FarEarth Observer Real-time Fire Detection Plugin for LANDSAT-8 for low latency hot spot fire warnings. Due to of its higher resolution resolution to the typical space-borne sensors used for fire detection (i.e. MODIS, VIIRS, etc), LANDSAT is a potential tool for the detection of small fires and the monitoring of a fire front. Hot Spot detection is done in Near Real Time during live receptions at the Prince Albert Satellite Station.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN STYLE="font-weight:bold;">*****DISCLAIMER*****</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>NRCan acknowledges that the Landsat 8 hotspot alerts are not error-free. While the hotspot detection from real-time Landsat 8 data received at the Prince Albert Satellite Station is based on a published hotspot detection algorithm, the algorithm hasn’t been optimized for Canadian wild fires. Also there is an inherent positional error of up to several hundred metres based on the real-time data processing. The hotspot alerts are supplied "as is", without any warranty of any kind, express or implied. NRCan can not be held liable for direct, indirect, special, incidental, or consequential damages arising out of the use of the hotspot alert data.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV>
