Identifying and Delineating Thermally Active Areas in Colorado Using Thermal Remote Sensing Data

Description

This report outlines the approach and methodology of the utilization of thermal satellite imagery to find areas of warm ground that might indicate heat flow from a buried geothermal system. The satellite platforms, modeling equations and corrections to the data are discussed. Some specific findings from the survey are shown, together with conclusions.
