has created this map<\/a> from the latest (29 JUne) Landsat 8 thermal imagery of the capital. <\/p>\nExCeL is a particular hotspot – its large, flat, metallic roof was showing a temperature of 38°C, having been baked by the sun. The map uses a striking thermal colour ramp – ranging from hot to super-hot.<\/p>\n
