ABSTRACT:
An earth surface surveying system uses an IR camera to obtain IR images of a selected area. A video camera operates in association with the IR camera to obtain video images in geographic and time sequence with images obtained by the IR camera. A processor allows split-screen viewing of the IR and video images so that areas of interest in the IR image can be identified from the video image. The system also includes apparatus for overlaying earth surface coordinates on the images from a global navigation system to enable identifying the location of areas in the images.
