Industrial facilities generate thermal signatures that can be observed from space, but current satellite-based monitoring systems like NASA FIRMS cannot distinguish between different types of thermal anomalies. To address this, there is a challenge to develop an AI-enabled geospatial system that integrates thermal data, land-cover information, industrial databases, and satellite imagery to automatically identify, classify, and monitor industrial fires and persistent thermal sources. •
Industrial facilities such as oil refineries, petrochemical complexes, thermal power plants, steel industries, mining areas, and LNG terminals generate thermal signatures that can be observed from space.

Industrial facilities such as oil refineries, petrochemical complexes, thermal power plants, steel industries, mining areas, and LNG terminals generate thermal signatures that can be observed from space. Furthermore, accidental industrial fires, gas leaks, explosions, and abnormal thermal events pose significant risks to critical infrastructure, public safety, and the environment. Current satellite-based fire monitoring systems such as NASA FIRMS provide thermal anomaly detections but do not distinguish between industrial fires, gas flares, agricultural burning, mining activity, and wildfires. The challenge is to develop an AI-enabled geospatial system that can automatically identify, classify, and monitor industrial fires and persistent thermal sources by integrating thermal anomaly data,
