Surface temperature data is indispensable for a wide range of industries and specialist areas. Temperature controls many biological and ecological processes, such as transpiration, biomass accumulation and thus also agricultural yields. Land surface temperature data from space (LST data) can therefore support a wide range of applications.
The surface temperature data is particularly valuable for professionals and decision-makers in these areas who need accurate and up-to-date information.
The Land Surface Temperature (LST) data from mundialis solves the problems of insufficient accuracy and spatial coverage that occur with conventional meteorological stations in surface analysis. The high spatial resolution of our LST data is of particular importance, as although meteorological stations provide accurate temperature measurements, these only represent individual locations with their immediate area of influence. In addition, the distribution of meteorological stations is anything but optimal for most regions of the world. Our LST data offers an unprecedented combination of spatial (up to 250 m) and temporal (up to 4 times daily) resolution. This makes it possible to obtain accurate and comprehensive temperature data from almost any land area on earth, which is crucial for many of the applications mentioned above.
By using LST data, users can make more informed decisions based on accurate, up-to-date and comprehensive temperature data. This leads to improved results in the respective fields, such as optimized crop yields in agriculture, better site selection in viticulture, more effective urban planning and more efficient route planning in transportation.
