My NASA Data has recently released several new resources, StoryMaps, for use in educational settings.
This StoryMap allows students to explore the urban heat island effect using land surface temperature and vegetation data in a 5 E-learning cycle. Students investigate the processes that create differences in surface temperatures, as well as how human activities have led to the creation of urban heat islands.
NASA Worldview is a free online visualization tool that is a great launchpad for learners who are new (or veteran) users of satellite data.
Examine (daytime) surface temperature and solar radiation received at locations found near similar latitudes using NASA Data.
