title: A novel method to obtain three-dimensional urban surface temperature from ground-based thermography - Figure 10 median brightness temperatures

description: Median brightness temperatures form thermal infrared cameras at the COSMO urban scale model site, Japan, as shown in Figure 10 of Morrison et al. (2018) <em>A novel method to obtain three-dimensional urban surface temperature from ground-based thermography </em>https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rse.2018.05.004. Details on the files can be found below.
