Title tile for the GeoHeat-SSA blog post, reading “GeoHeat-SSA: A GeoAI decision-support platform for urban heat governance in Sub-Saharan Africa”, with the author name Andrews Korah. The background is a colourful heat map of a dense urban area, with hotter zones in red and purple and cooler green areas. In the foreground, several people lean over a large printed heat map on a table. Image credit: Google Gemini.Quote tile with a grey background and a “USF Blog” label, plus the USF logo in the top right corner. The quote reads: “Many urban municipalities lack a centralised system to pinpoint heat hotspots and evaluate cooling interventions. GeoHeat-SSA bridges this gap by integrating satellite-derived surface temperatures, land cover patterns, and direct community knowledge.”
