NDVI map calculated from an April 2023, Landsat-8 OLI image of Coronado National Memorial and the surrounding area. The shades of green represent current vegetation, while areas in bright yellow and dark orange represent areas with little to no vegetation. By selecting an image during the dry season, the map highlights the unique ecosystem of sky islands which is characterized by changing vegetation at different elevations.

NDVI-processed imagery from Landsat 8 OLI data. This image of Baltimore and surrounding cities is a composite of Summer 2013 to 2023. Shades of purple indicate vegetated land surface, while darker orange shades show the built landscape; meanwhile, shades of yellow indicate water bodies. Areas of low NDVI are at-risk of high temperatures and is an indicator for Maryland’s transit system to focus on communities most vulnerable of urban heat island impacts.
