Thermally Sensed Image of Baton Rouge

Aerial view of Baton Rouge, showing both a photographic view of the city and thermal image of     metropolitan hot spots. In the thermal image (right), red and yellow areas indicate hot spots and generally correspond with roads and building roofs. Blue and     green areas are cool and indicate water and vegetation. The bright red areas are about 149 degrees Fahrenheit (65 degrees Celsius); the cooler spots are around 77     degrees Fahrenheit (25 degrees Celsius). The solid blue swatch of color flowing down the left side is the Mississippi River.
