  • Abstract
    In this paper, we present the creation of a temperature profile of the Alfios river basin using multitemporal thermal satellite images. With the appropriate algorithms we converted the radiation into Celsius Degrees in order to calculate the surface temperature of the area. We proceed to the control of the model accuracy using in situ temperature measurements. The results showed that the error is less than 0.3°C and it is acceptable.
