Application of Geo-information Technology to Study Urban Heat Island Phenomenon

Abstract

Geo-information technology can by applied to study the urban heat island
phenomenon and many associated cases: including the study of the distribution of the
heat island phenomenon, the study of the risk of the heat island phenomena on health,
the study of land use on the urban heat island phenomenon and the study of factors that
affect the heat island phenomenon. The use of geo-information technology enables the
highest utilization of the urban heat island phenomenon and could be applied in urban
planning and management in the future.
