Embodiment Construction
[0032] Provide flight-based infrared imaging systems and related technologies, particularly UAS-based thermal imaging systems, to improve the surveillance capabilities of such systems relative to conventional infrared surveillance systems. In some embodiments, the infrared imaging system can be configured to compensate for various environmental influences (e.g., position and / or strength of the sun, atmospheric effects) to provide high resolution and accuracy of radiance of targets imaged by the infrared imaging system Measurement results, as described herein. In other embodiments, the infrared imaging system may be configured to calculate and report radiometric measurements for each pixel of the thermal image, as described herein. Additionally, as described herein, data from infrared imaging systems can be used to create panoramic or three-dimensional (3D) thermal representations. In other embodiments, the infrared imaging system may be configured to monitor regulatory restri...

Abstract
Flight based infrared imaging systems and related techniques, and in particular UAS based thermal imaging systems, are provided to improve the monitoring capabilities of such systems over conventionalinfrared monitoring systems. An infrared imaging system is configured to compensate for various environmental effects (e.g., position and / or strength of the sun, atmospheric effects) to provide highresolution and accuracy radiometric measurements of targets imaged by the infrared imaging system. An infrared imaging system is alternatively configured to monitor and determine environmental conditions, modify data received from infrared imaging systems and other systems, modify flight paths and other commands, and / or create a representation of the environment.
