What is it about?
We used Earth observation data (LANDSAT ETM+) and the precise knowledge of digital image processing with ERDAS IMAGINE and ENVI softwares to produce finest results of land surface temperature and on the basis of temporal analyses it is showed how the land surface temperature(LST) varies with the human interference and urban environment deteriorates.

Why is it important?
this research clearly explained the potentiality of Earth observation or Remote Sensing data and from space observation how our urban environment can be assessed and monitored efficiently. This study will be helpful to the further researchers working on urban climate.
Perspectives
India is always a competitive partner in the field of Remote Sensing and Geosciences. I think this research will attract large no. of national or international readers and researchers working on this domain.
