Urban Heat Island Analysis
As cities expand, rising surface and air temperatures create Urban Heat Islands (UHIs) — areas significantly warmer than their rural surroundings. Drone-based thermal imaging and environmental monitoring provide a precise, data-driven approach to study and mitigate these heat effects. By delivering real-time thermal maps, drones empower city planners, environmental scientists, and policymakers to design more sustainable and climate-resilient urban ecosystems.
