Approximate and Quick Estimation of Carbon Emissions from a City Using Remotely Sensed Data

Calculating CO2 emissions from a city using Global Protocol for Communities (GPC) guidelines is a data intensive exercise. Moreover, the outcome is difficult to verify because of the data quality issues. We have developed a quick and approximate method for calculating scope 1 and scope 2 CO2 emitted by a city, using Landsat 8 data. We used Vegetation-Impervious surfaces-Soil (VIS) classes extracted from the satellite image, and city population as independent variables and related it with CO2 emissions. The model results match well with the reported total annual carbon emissions by the world carbon budget report.
