Use Constraints The images processed in this way preserve all the original details
leaving to the user the evaluation of hot features. The detected fires
can be considered as highly likely, however some fires can be missed.
The user of the fire product needs to take into account the algorithm
limitations due to cloud presence, atmospheric effects,
bidirectionality of emissivity, fire temperature and extension, all
features not taken into account in the processing.
