  • 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, 2013, 2015, and 2017 NAIP imagery (1m resolution). LST is calculated from Landsat 5 and 8 imagery (30m resolution) from summer months in 1985, 1990, 1995, 2000, 2005, 2010, and 2015. Summary values are calculated for each of the aforementioned data resources for 2011 and 2017 Phoenix Area Social Survey (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.

    Javascript code used to process NDVI, SAVI, and LST imagery, and R code used to calculate numerical summaries of NDVI, SAVI, and LST in PASS neighborhoods are included with this dataset.

    Locations and areas of PASS study neighborhood boundaries are available through the Environmental Data Initiative:
