Abstract

Currently, one of the most effective means for obtaining temperature images is multispectral Earth surfaces in the thermal infrared (IR) range, obtained from the Landsat-8 satellite. The article presents a method for obtaining and evaluating a temperature image of the Earth’s surface according to the 10thband of Landsat-8. The satellite image processing was carried out in the ArcGIS software package. To determine the surface temperature, the emission factor was calculated using the NDVI method. As a result, a temperature image of the Bukantau mountains was obtained. When evaluating the temperature image, it was revealed that the temperatures of massive rocks of the Bukantau mountains are lower than foothill friable rocks.
