Abstract: The invention relates to a method for detecting the heating activity in objects or materials, based on thermal only or thermal and visual data images. The method is based on a physics-based model of the underlying heating phenomena within materials or objects, while taking into account disturbing factors of natural phenomena such as weather conditions and day and night cycle. The invention also relates to a corresponding system for detecting the heating activity in objects or materials.
