Urban Heat Island Analysis & San Francisco

Remote Sensing San Francisco, CA Sep 14, 2025

Project Overview

Comprehensive analysis of urban heat island effects using Landsat thermal imagery and meteorological data to identify hotspots and vulnerable areas.

Detailed Description

This project involved analyzing urban heat island patterns in San Francisco using multi-temporal Landsat thermal infrared imagery combined with ground-based temperature measurements. The study utilized advanced spatial analysis techniques to identify heat island hotspots and correlate them with urban morphology, vegetation cover, and socioeconomic factors. The results provided valuable insights for urban planning and climate adaptation strategies.\n\nKey methodologies included:\n- Thermal infrared image processing and atmospheric correction\n-


Time series analysis of land surface temperature data\n- Spatial correlation analysis with urban features\n- Statistical modeling and hotspot identification\n-


Vulnerability assessment mapping\n\nThe project deliverables included detailed heat island maps, statistical analysis reports, and policy recommendations for urban cooling strategies.
