TL;DR: Improvements made to the fire detection algorithm and swath-level product that were implemented as part of the Collection 6 land-product reprocessing, which commenced in May 2015, indicated targeted improvements in the performance of the collection 6 activeFire detection algorithm compared to Collection 5, with reduced omission errors over large fires, and reduced false alarm rates in tropical ecosystems.

TL;DR: In this article, a real-time system for remotely monitoring sites to provide real time information which can readily permit distinguishing false alarms, and which can identify and track the precise location of an alarm.
Abstract: The present invention is directed to providing systems and methods for remotely monitoring sites to provide real time information which can readily permit distinguishing false alarms, and which can identify and track the precise location of an alarm. In embodiments, monitoring capabilities such as intrusion/fire detection and tracking capabilities, can be implemented through the use of multistate indicators (110, 112, 114, 116) in a novel interface (100) which permits information to be transmitted using standard network protocols (210, 212, 214, 216) from a remote site (204) to a monitoring station (202) in real-time. In embodiments, communications can be handed from the centrally located host monitoring station (202) to a mobile monitoring station (208) (for example, a laptop computer in a responding vehicle, such as a police or fire vehicle).
