A suburb of London has done an aerial heat survey, highlighting which houses have poor insulation, [and which ones are growing pot] and put the map online so people (and their neighbours) can see.

This is the UK, not the US, so they're less concerned about the pot growers (anyway they've got a few hundred other excuses for invading privacy and selective law enforcement), besides many of the houses are so poorly insulated you couldn't spot the pot growers that way.
