cartography of heat focus
or :
Cartography of heat locations ( but I do prefer the first one)
It is possible to replace the word "cartography" by "map" but the first one sounds more "technical"

map of heat furnaces
I have the feeling it could be the heat coming from forest fires but I do not have enough context

thermal mapping/heat island mapping
I'd go with "hot spots," except that the term has a specific meaning in conservation -- these are areas in which a critical number of endangered species can no longer survive. Hence my suggestions. "Thermal mapping" is also used in medicine, so "heat island mapping," though less common (only 35 hits on Google) might be more specific for your context. Here are some examples of both:

: Hi Muriel, "heat island" is a very specific concept, used in urban geography, just look at the references you provide, that's what they're about.

Good point. Also, we don't have any context for the question. So maybe "thermal mapping" is best.
