UAV geothermal mapping in Austurengjar

The aim of this study was to produce and analyze a thermal map of a geothermal area in Iceland. Austurengjar, an area part of the Krýsuvík volcanic system on the Reykjanes Peninsula was selected. The area was mapped by a UAV equipped with a dual thermal and RGB camera. The resulting thermal image an...
