Heat Mapping Services

Heat Mapping

Heat Mapping is an advanced remote sensing technique that uses satellite-derived thermal data to monitor temperature variations across land and water surfaces. This method is crucial for identifying urban heat islands, assessing climate change impacts, monitoring wildfires, and optimizing energy efficiency in built environments.

At GISMappers, we utilize high-resolution thermal imagery from satellites like Landsat, MODIS, and Sentinel-3 to generate heat distribution maps. These maps assist urban planners, environmental researchers, and disaster response teams in making data-driven decisions for sustainability and resilience planning.
