<br />The "Urban Heat Island Index" map is an index <br />created by consultants at Plan IT Geo based on <br />high heat severity, high impervious surface, <br />and low tree canopy. Areas near water and <br />greenspaces are less susceptible to urban <br />heat, while areas with lots of buildings and <br />pavement experience the most heat severity. <br />Urban Heat Severity: shown on a scale of <br />mild to severe, with mild heat in light pink <br />(slightly above the city's average), and <br />severe heat in dark pink (sign·1ficantly <br />above the c ity's average). <br />Urban Tree Canopy (UTC): shown for each <br />Census Tract, from yellow or low {0-5%) to <br />green o r high (75-20%). <br />Impervious Surfaces: shown for each <br />Census Tract, from teal or low (0-15%) to <br />grey or high (>75%).
