Abstract

The collection of thermal images of satellites to study a region is made accessing systems on the Internet
such as the US Geological Survey (USGS). Every study of satellite images the acquisition and clipping stages
for a region is made in an individualized way, being a common protocol in researches of orbital satellite
images. In order to contribute to the optimization of geographic researches performance, this work presents
an automated protocol for satellite image acquisition and preprocessing of the Landsat-8 TIRS thermal sensor. To develop this protocol, were analyzed common manual processes of acquisition and clipping in geographic researches that uses Landsat-8 thermal images. It has been found possible to pre-process the Landsat-8 digital thermocouples automatically, enabling a combination with others automated technologies and coupling with others geographic information systems that contain thermal region processing.
