Analysis of Land Surface Temperature in Open Space Using Landsat Data

Abstract

BAND 6 data of Landsat/TM were utilized to know the characteristics of surface temperature reduction of open space types based on five times of observation data from1987 to 1994.
Lan d surface temperatures have been summarized as to have some level of correlation with atmospheric temperatures. and open spaces have been shown to have considerable level of mitigation effect for surface temperature by size, type and surface materials. These effects have been measured quantitatively.
