as well as for other global warming monitoring
This is routinely done, but this does not need a high spatial resolution and it does not need to be in near real time.

I suggest to have a look at this study: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/341253627_Applications_of_UAV_Thermal_Imagery_in_Precision_Agriculture_State_of_the_Art_and_Future_Research_Outlook to understand where we are in 2022 in terms of implementation of remote sensing and precision agriculture (we are quite ahead wrt to what OP question implies).
