San Diego Urban Heat Island

Map of San Diego heat island

Project Details

Map produced for the Urban Heat Island Hackathon, October 17-18 2020.

Our team downloaded temperature data from NASA ECOSTRESS for San Diego. We processed the GEOTIFF using QGIS. And we did a comparison of temperature, tree canopy, public parks, and low and moderate income areas. We exported the map as a web map.
