Abstract

Urban remote sensing is the acquisition of information about the urban environment and physical objects within urban areas through recording, measuring and interpreting electromagnetic radiation derived from contactless sensors. The potentials of urban remote sensing, its advantages and its contribution to urban planning and energy planning are discussed within this work. This paper outlines the challenges of energy planning, presents the research question, if there is a correlation between remote sensing derived parameters and energy related issues and outlines the overall objectives of the thesis “Urban Remote Sensing and Energy Planning”. Furthermore the fields of application are presented followed by a brief literature review; methodologies are specified and the expected outcome is described. Within the last section the present stage of the research is presented.
