Simulation of a remote sensing system for fire detection

We want to create a simulation of a remote fire detection sensor. The simulated sensor data could help to improve the fire retrieval algorithm. The simulation will be built by using a more general tool for simulations of remote sensing systems. The simulation tool consists of a geometric, a radiometric, and a sensory component. Artificial fire maps will serve as input to the simulation and will be created by using fractional Brownian motion.
