Overview

Randomized trial maps vegetation indices in urban areas, suggesting strategies to mitigate climate change effects.

Key Points

  • The research aims to use remote sensing techniques to map urban green spaces and assess their health amid climate change.
  • Analyzed very high-resolution satellite images from the WorldView-3 constellation.
  • Employed pan-sharpening to combine panchromatic and multispectral data for detailed vegetation mapping.
  • Calculated spectral indices such as NDVI and GNDVI to monitor vegetation health over two time points.
  • Observed significant water stress in urban vegetation during the summer months.
  • Average values of vegetation indices decreased from June to September 2023, indicating health deterioration.
  • Results provide a framework for resilient urban planning and implementing nature-based solutions.
