Urban Heat Island Assessment and Strategic Guidelines for Urban Cooling In Tamil Nadu
This study was conducted with the objective of bridging key knowledge and policy gaps in Tamil Nadu’s response to urban heat by assessing ward level Heat Risk Index and identifying tailored solutions in four sample cities. While previous state-level assessments—such as the Tamil Nadu Heat Mitigation Strategy (2023) and the Urban Heat Island (UHI) hotspot analysis by the State Planning Commission (2024)—provided valuable macro-level insights, they lacked granular, ward-level data necessary for targeted interventions.
