Specifically, an increase in the number of buildings within an urban landscape causes intensification of heat islands, necessitating promotion of cool roofs to mitigate Urban Heat Islands (UHI) and associated impacts. In this study, we used the freely available Sentinel 2 and Landsat 8 data to determine the study area\u2019s Land Use Land Covers (LULCs), roof colours and Land Surface Temperature (LST) at a 10-m spatial resolution. Support Vector Machines (SVM) classification algorithm was adopted to derive the study area\u2019s roof colours and proximal LULCs, and the Transformed Divergence Separability Index (TDSI) based on Jeffries Mathussitta distance analysis was used to determine the variability in LULCs and roof colours. To effectively relate the Landsat 8 thermal characteristics to the LULCs and roof colours, the Gram\u2013Schmidt technique was used to pan-sharpen the 30-m Landsat 8 image data to 10 m. Results show that Sentinel 2 mapped LULCs with over 75% accuracy. Pan-sharpening the 30-m-resolution thermal data to 10 m improved the spatial resolution and quality of the Land Surface map and the correlation between LST and Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) used as proxy for LULC. Green-colour roofs were the warmest, followed by red roofs, while blue roofs were the coolest. Generally, black roofs in the study area were cool. The study recommends the need to incorporate other roofing properties, such as shape, and further split the colours into different shades. Furthermore, the study recommends the use of very high spatial resolution data to determine roof colour and their respective properties; these include data derived from sensors mounted on aerial platforms such as drones and aircraft. The study concludes that with appropriate analytical techniques, freely available image data can be integrated to determine the implication of roof colouring on urban thermal characteristics, useful for mitigating the effects of Urban Heat Islands and climate change.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs14174247","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,8,30]],"date-time":"2022-08-30T01:37:55Z","timestamp":1661823475000},"page":"4247","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["\u201cCool\u201d Roofs as a Heat-Mitigation Measure in Urban Heat Islands: A Comparative Analysis Using Sentinel 2 and Landsat Data"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"14","author":[{"given":"Terence","family":"Mushore","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Discipline of Geography, School of Agricultural, Earth and Environmental Sciences, University of KwaZulu-Natal, Scottsville, Pietermaritzburg 3209, South Africa"},{"name":"Department of Space Science and Applied Physics, Faculty of Science, University of Zimbabwe, 630 Churchill Avenue, Mt Pleasant, Harare 00263, Zimbabwe"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"John","family":"Odindi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Discipline of Geography, School of Agricultural, Earth and Environmental Sciences, University of KwaZulu-Natal, Scottsville, Pietermaritzburg 3209, South Africa"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7358-8111","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Onisimo","family":"Mutanga","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Discipline of Geography, School of Agricultural, Earth and Environmental Sciences, University of KwaZulu-Natal, Scottsville, Pietermaritzburg 3209, South Africa"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,8,28]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"Meinel, G., and Winkler, M.
