Abstract
This study focuses on analysis methods for monitoring coal fires, using a combination of multi‐temporal thermal infrared data, high spatial resolution remote sensing data and field measurements. This technical note is prepared as a feasibility study for the detection of coal fire dynamics in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region in northern China.
