Abstract
Urban heat island refers to the phenomenon that temperature in urban is higher than the suburban. It is one of the most obvious features of urban climate. One of the possible causes is the drastic reduction in the greenery areas. However, the increasing of temperature cause limits of production of plantations, at the same time effects the growth of economic. The relation of the land use types and the urban heat island has gradually become an important environmental problem that awaken general concern. This study tries to investigate and identify the land use types which influence the most to the increasing of ambient temperature in Perlis. The main tools are remote sensing data and ArcGIS to measure, monitoring and analysing the land use change and urban heat island. This study carried out at Perlis state, Malaysia. Three variables such as temperature, humidity and land use types will be used. The data analyse by extract values and comparing the results between In-Situ measurements and map. The analysis results show the land usage influenced urban temperature. This study can help awareness the importance of greenery areas to earth for people to reduce the global warming.
