Abstract:We present a method for early forest fire detection from a satellite image using the belonging probability matrix image. We have considered each satellite image matrix line as a realization of a nonstationary random process in the thermal infra-red (TIR) spectral band and then divided each line into very small stationary and ergodic intervals to obtain an adequate mathematical model. Furthermore, the pixels of the satellite image are considered to be statistically independent; thus, any small interval of each … Show more
