- •
Shading impacts of urban forests on building roofs are assessed along two highways.
- •
Two remote sensing technologies are integrated for data analysis.
- •
Trees around buildings result in substantial solar radiation reductions and energy savings.
- •
Radiation reductions correlate to tree height and canopy coverage, so large trees more beneficial.
- •
Remote sensing data can be effectively used for urban forest management.
