Abstract :
We proposed a high accuracy calculating the scar area by using NOAA AVHRR images. It is based on temporal analysis for fire detection whole a month. The result is plotted on clear sky image map. NOAA AVHRR image is projected by geometric correction to 1.1 km per pixel. Therefore, one plotted fire area is 1.21 km2. It is accumulated every 10 days in a month
