In following paper applicability of thermographic method for natural environment monitoring is discussed. Interpretation of low contrast thermographic images of a leaky cesspool is presented. The aims of the measurements were detection of wastewater leakage and precise determination of contaminated area. For noise reduction and thermal anomaly detection we propose the wavelet decomposition de-noising procedure combined with specially designed for such images segmentation process.
