Result: Development urban heat island application system using google earth engine (GEE).
Further Information
The Urban Heat Island (UHI) phenomenon has been seriously studied by climate scientists globally, including in Indonesia. Indonesia government need to identify and to monitor urban heat island (UHI) for disaster mitigation. However need technology for identification and monitoring UHI for whole Indonesian area. The use of geospatial-based artificial intelligence (GeoAI) technology shows great potential in fast and efficiently identifying and monitoring large areas. Although there has been a significant quantity of studies carried out on artificial intelligence, the use of GeoAI to discover and monitor Urban Heat Island (UHI) occurrences in Indonesia is still limited. The objective of this study is to develop application system for identification and monitoring UHI in Indonesia area. This application will utilize Google Earth Engine to track UHI occurrences in Indonesia between the years 2003 and 2023. The research approach includes every step of design development, data gathering and processing, application development, testing, and visualization of Urban Heat Island (UHI) phenomenon in Indonesia. This work has led to the development of a system application for monitoring Urban Heat Island (UHI) occurrences in Indonesia. The development of this application was carried out with a focus on improving functionality that allows users to select a specific time range and location. Thus, this application has succeeded in answering user needs to obtain UHI visualization in the desired time period. The UHI visualization is shown on a dashboard using Earth Engine Apps, which can be accessed at the website https://bit.ly/UHI_ITENAS-2024. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
