1. A method for steam leak detection, comprising:
- obtaining real-time temperature data representing a heat dissipation of a steam pipe along a steam pipe route;
processing the real-time temperature data in real-time to determine at least one indication of a potential steam leak based on the real-time temperature data and to generate a processed image for display, wherein processing the real-time temperature data comprises comparing the real-time temperature data to geo-registered baseline data; and
displaying the processed image to depict the heat dissipation of the steam pipe.
