Detection and Validation of Tropical Peatland Flaming and Smouldering Using Landsat-8 SWIR and TIRS Bands
A Tropical Peatland Combustion Algorithm (ToPeCAl) was first established from Landsat-8 images acquired in 2015, which were used to detect peatland combustion in flaming and smouldering stages.Detection of smouldering combustion from space remains a challenge due to its low temperature and generally small spatial extent.The ToPeCAl consists of the
