Methodology for mapping coal mine fireusing Airborne Thermal Scanner

Coal Mine Fire Mapping

using Airborne Thermal Scanner(Daedalus-1268) data was firstdeveloped by CMPDI in collaborationwith NRSC, Hyderabad way back in the, y yyear 1992 in India. Coal mine firemapping is being carried out usingASTER/LANDSAT thermal band datafor Jharia, Raniganj , Bokaro andKaranpura coalfields on annual basis andFire Management Information System(FMIS)i d l d t it th fi(FMIS)is developed to monitor the firedynamics.
