I want to detect what cooling effect (intensity and distance) a group of small green areas can have, for example in one part of the town. And also for the the whole town, preferably from satellite images.
The most convenient way would be calculating land surface temperature (LST) from Landsat data and assessing the temperature distribution in terms of green areas and their vicinity. You can follow our article to know more about LST: Article Application of Land Surface Temperature Analysis in Urban Gr...
Dear Veronika, we have submitted a paper to IGARSS 2022 on the mapping of green infrastructure, mapping the current UHI situation in the city of Liège (Belgium), on which greening scenarios will be build by the authorities. Based on these, we will use a 1m model to map the impact of these planting scenarios on a predicted UHI. Link to a publication on the given model: https://www.mdpi.com/2225-1154/8/1/6
