In this episode, I share the story of creating the world’s highest-resolution urban heat island maps in collaboration with the team at NASA JPL, available at http://urbancanopy.io. I share the process of taking raw thermal satellite pictures from the NASA archive, using GIS software and data to get a heat island score for each land parcel, using Mapbox to show the map, and running NASA's custom machine learning algorithm to increase the image resolution.
