Comments and notes on flight:
Tonight, we flew only the Northern half of the Creek fire perimeter and collected LWIR and RGB imagery. Raw Imagery is being made accessible over a share drive. Heat Perimeter from 20201101 NIROPS products was used to generate tonight’s NIROPS products. For heat detection and perimeter updating we used 16 bit LWIR imagery only .
The most active heat and perimeter growth is in the East and Northeast. The northern edge going to the west is also active and growing but not as much. I closed 3 coves, all on the North East side. Today’s perimeter growth value is smaller than yesterday
Sunday Evening Update: 380,345 acres and 70% containment.
