The Intelligent Fire Detection Infrared Sensor (FOCUS) will detect, from the ISS orbit, and analyse high-temperature events such as vegetation fires and volcanic eruptions. Large forest and savannah fires, as well as volcanic activities, have global atmospheric consequences (e.g. greenhouse effect, cloud generation, climate change) and the measurements onboard the Station will contribute to the classification, atmospheric composition determination and geocoding of the data, which will be transmitted to a worldwide scientific, application-oriented and pre-operational user community. 2, record 1, English, - intelligent%20fire%20detection%20infrared%20sensor%20system
