Explanation:
or :

Cartography of heat locations ( but I do prefer the first one)

- Cartografía de focos de calor. thermal mapping/heat island mapping

Explanation:
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:
