Abstract
The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) offers numerous land products of the Earth's datasets. On the other hand, researchers find it difficult to retrieve this data for specific places. The methods for extracting and analyzing land surface temperature (LST), land use and land cover (LULC), and elevation are presented in this study. The R commands provided make the time-consuming process of extracting data for specific places much more accessible. As a result, a statistical study of LST over Bali is shown as an example. Over the 15 regions of Bali, a quadratic polynomial identified five possible warming patterns, while a logistic regression model assessed the probability of warming. The findings suggest that 25.2% of Bali has warmed during the last two decades, with temperatures being highest in urban and built-up areas and deciduous forests and inversely associated with elevation. Global warming has sparked a lot of academic interest and has become a serious climate problem. The techniques proposed in this work simplify the extraction of LST, LULC, and elevation data from MODIS satellites. These approaches can also be used on other datasets with identical topologies, such as the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), aerosol optical depth (AOD), and night light data.
