Surface Temperature Analysis

Identify urban heat islands instantly. Use surface temperature layers to support climate analyses and communicate impacts clearly to clients. You can quickly answer:

?

Where are the hottest and coolest areas in the city?

?

How does temperature vary between neighborhoods, streets, and blocks?

?

Which locations experience heat stress or urban heat island effects?

Population Analysis

Understand population distribution at a glance. Great for market studies, mobility planning, and identifying priority areas for interventions. You can quickly answer:

?

How many people live within a specific block, neighborhood, or district?

?

Which areas are underserved or overburdened based on population patterns?

?

What are the age demographics of a given area (children, working-age, seniors)?
