Register for the live event here.
As part of a series of live webinars from the IEEE Geoscience & Remote Sensing Society (GRSS), IEEE.tv will broadcast a presentation by Qihao Weng, Indiana State University, USA
Abstract:
This lecture examines the state-of-the-art methodologies for generating consistent, high temporal-resolution LST data and explores the use of satellite derived LST data to analyze urbanization processes and surface urban heat islands in selected cities in the North America and Asia, followed by discussion on scientific and technological challenges and future opportunities.
