  • This project calculates two vegetation indices: Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) and Soil Adjusted Vegetation Index (SAVI), and land surface temperature (LST) from remotely sensed imagery. NDVI and SAVI are calculated from the 2010 and 2017 NAIP imagery (1-m resolution). LST is calculated from Landsat 5 and 8 imagery (30-m resolution) from summer months in 1985, 1990, 1995, 2000, 2005, 2010, and 2015 using study neighborhoods each from the 2011 and 2017 PASS study area boundaries. Tabular summaries of the mean, median, minimum, maximum, and standard deviation of the NDVI, SAVI, and LST values for the 2011 and 2017 Phoenix Area Social Survey boundaries (45 and 12 neighborhoods, respectively) are provided.
