SMARTER HEAT INTELLIGENCE. FROM

HOTSPOTS TO RESILIENT CITIES.

Geoneon Heat

Geoneon Heat maps urban heat hotspots, measures exposure of people and infrastructure, and highlights where greening delivers the greatest cooling benefit.

PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Geoneon Heat identifies urban heat hotspots, measures exposure of people and infrastructure, and pinpoints where greening delivers the greatest cooling benefit.

Built for councils, governments, and planners, it transforms complex environmental and demographic data into clear, actionable insights — underpinned by a set of geospatial indices — helping cities design healthier, safer, and more climate-resilient communities.

BUILT ON EVIDENCE, DELIVERED WITH EASE

Geoneon Heat is grounded in peer-reviewed methods from the scientific literature, adapted into proprietary algorithms to ensure scalability, efficiency, and consistency across regions. Our indices are derived from validated earth observation and demographic datasets, tested alongside councils and agencies, and aligned with observed heat events and planning frameworks.

Results are delivered in formats that fit your workflow making it simple to move from analysis to action:

ACTIONABLE INSIGHTS

  • GeoTIFF / Shapefiles
  • Webservices (WMS/WFS)
  • Webmaps.

What Can You Do with Geoneon Heat?

Geoneon Heat helps governments and planners move from identifying heat hotspots to implementing targeted, evidence-based cooling strategies.

HEAT SUSCEPTIBILITY INDEX

Where are the hottest places?

Maps land surface temperature hotspots across cities, helping planners identify priority areas for cooling and adaptation measures.

RESIDENTIAL HEAT RISK INDEX

Which communities face the greatest risk?

GREENING PRIORITISATION

Where should we green first?

Pinpoints canopy deficit areas where planting trees or adding shade delivers the greatest cooling benefit, ensuring investments achieve maximum impact.
