ABSTRACT
This study was conducted to retrieve the
land surface temperature (LST) from Landsat ETM+ data
for Al Qassim, Saudi Arabia. The proposed technique employed a mono window LST algorithm
for retrieving surface temperature from Landsat ETM+. The
land surface emissivity and solar angle values were needed in order to apply
these in the proposed algorithm. The surface emissivity values were computed
based on the NDVI values. The LST values
derived from ATCOR2_T in the PCI Geomatica image processing software was used
for algorithm calibration. The results showed a high correlation coefficient
(R) and low root-mean-square error (RMS) between
the LST values retrieved from the proposed
algorithm and ATCOR2_T. This study indicated that the proposed algorithm is
capable of retrieving accurate LST values
and the derived information can be used in the environmental impact assessment
for Al Qassim area.

Kajian ini dilakukan
dengan mendapatkan suhu permukaan tanah (LST)
daripada data Landsat ETM+ untuk Al Qassim, Arab
Saudi. Teknik yang dicadangkan ini
menggunakan algoritma tetingkap mono LST untuk mendapatkan suhu
permukaan daripada Landsat ETM+. Nilai
pancaran permukaan tanah dan nilai-nilai sudut suria diperlukan untuk
melaksanakan dalam algoritma yang dicadangkan. Nilai
pancaran permukaan tersebut dikira berdasarkan nilai NDVI. Nilai LST berasal daripada ATCOR2_T dalam
perisian computer Geomatica PCI digunakan untuk kalibrasi
algoritma. Hasilnya menunjukkan pekali korelasi yang tinggi (R) dan
nilai sisihan punca min kuasa dua yang rendah (RMS) antara LST nilai
dianggarkan daripada algoritma yang dicadangkan dan ATCOR2_T. Kajian ini
menunjukkan bahawa algoritma yang dicadangkan mampu mendapatkan nilai LST dengan
kejituan yang tingggi dan maklumat yang diperoleh boleh digunakan dalam
penilaian kesan persekitaran untuk kawasan Al Qassim.
