Abstract:

This research is aimed to know (1) Spatial pattern of land surface temperature, (2) Relationship between land surface temperature with cover terrain, and (3) Relationship between land surface temperature and the vegetation density of Makassar City in 1999, 2010 and 2015. This research using Landsat imagery data ETM+ and LDCM Landsat covered Makassar City. Variable of this research is land surface temperature from band thermal LWIR, land cover obtained by guidance classification use (maximum likelihood algorithm), and vegetation density that is obtained from result processing of Landsat band NIR and Visible Red in 1999, 2010 and 2015. Analysis results at this research show that (1) Spatial temperature land surface temperature of Makassar City be spread evenly but more dominant at the south part (2) Correlation of Land Surface Temperature and NDVI vegetation density indicate reverse relationship, which mean is the higher vegetation density so the lower surface temperature in Makassar City. (3) The highest surface temperature in Makassar City occurred on 2015 with 36,68oC in average tend to concentrate at central city with terrain cover is built areal.
