Spatial distribution characteristics of urban thermal conditions: application of GIS and remote

摘要

The urban thermal distribution characteristics and its variationare dynamically monitored and synthetically analyzed by using GIS technology. The meteorological satellite data serve as main information source, assisted as auxiliary information sources by the landsat satellite TM data, land use thematic maps and meteorological observed data. A correlated pattern on the ground surface brightness temperatures and air temperatures has been studied and established with good performance of application.
