Claim Text:
1. A multi-spectral imaging system for measurement of combustion efficiency of a flare, comprising: an imaging unit capturing images of the flare, the imaging unit producing at least three spatially and temporally synchronized intensities from the images of the flare, a first intensity of said at least three intensities representing an amount of a first material contained in the flare, a second intensity of said at least three intensities representing an amount of a second material contained in the flare, a third intensity of said at least three intensities representing an amount of a third material contained in the flare, the first material including fuel, the second material including carbon dioxide; and an analysis apparatus coupled to the imaging unit, the analysis apparatus including a machine readable storage medium which provides instructions that cause the analysis apparatus to perform operations to obtain the combustion efficiency of the flare, the operations comprising:
