Abstract

Urban Heat Island has been one of the factors which can give an insight to the Environment Stress in any
region due to the increased urbanisation and other human activities. With the help of LANDSAT satellite images and
the retrieval of Land surface temperature. Different methods for LST retrieval have been mention with their accuracy
and Mono-window Algorithm has been discussed in details. Correlation with NDVI and NDBI has been explained,
further the cooling effect of water and vegetation over an area has been discussed with their effective area of
influence. A strong relation has been established on how UHI effect can be used to identify the area under
environmental stress, and can help Area Development Authority in better planning of a city, this provides an easy to
use tool for planning the upcoming smart cities whereby decreasing the energy consumption and regulating the
industry.
