Abstract
Methods for generating a temperature map of a scene are provided. A method may include receiving thermal data of the scene. The thermal data includes frames of thermal infrared data. A mapping may be created for each frame based on the digital thermal infrared data. The method further includes generating the temperature map using the mapping. The temperature map is generated prior to a contrast enhancement process. The method further includes separately transmitting the temperature map and the digital thermal infrared data in a data channel.
