What it is

A compact city-year panel of urban heat, vegetation, land cover, density, and heat mortality for 50 global cities from 2015 to 2025. 550 city-year records across 50 cities and 11 years with 10 tabular fields: LST anomaly, NDVI, impervious cover, tree canopy, population density, heat mortality, and climate zone.

Key results

  • 550 rows across 50 cities and 11 years
  • 10 columns of tabular city-year features
  • 3 cities have missing heat mortality values

Useful for forecasting urban heat mortality and analyzing how greenness and built cover relate to city heat intensity.
