Thermal IR images provide a wide range of information about many components of the environment. Among them, processes taking place in geological rocks close to the Earth's surface, including the density of rocks, their water capacity, and thermal conductivity, are considered an important means of information. Infrared heat measuring devices with different resolution
characteristics installed in modern satellite systems are widely used in determining the contours of volcanic processes, hydrothermal sources, and determining geological formations with different physical and chemical properties, as well as determining fractures in the terrain. Interpretation of modern thermal images requires consideration of a large number of different factors resulting from the influence of various physical processes. A theoretical model is proposed for the quantitative
evaluation of a number of factors with the aim of choosing the optimal period of thermal IR research and increasing the accuracy of calculation of other parameters of the surface. The parameters used in the formation of the model were carried out under optimal meteorological conditions and there was no vegetation on the selected ground surface
