Detection of Small Wildfire by Thermal Infrared Camera With the Uncooled Microbolometer Array for 50-kg Class Satellite
The thermal infrared camera with the uncooled microbolometer array based on commercial products has been developed in a laboratory of a Japanese university and mounted to a 50-kg class small satellite specialized for discovering wildfire. It has been launched in 2014 and successfully detected considerable hotspots not only wildfire but also volcanoes. Brightness temperature derived from observation has been verified, and the scale of observed wildfire has been provisionally presumed; the smallest wildfire ever detected has a flame zone less than \sim 300~\text{m}^{\mathrm {\mathbf {2}}} and the fire radiative power = ~35.4 mW. It is 1/30th the size of the initial requirement estimated in the design process. Our thermal infrared camera developed in a short time with low cost has attained enough ability to discover small wildfire which is suppressive at initial attack.
