Roof planting on the artificial foundation is noticed as an effective method for heat reduction, including upward radiation decrease and sun light insulation, in the city center. In this study, basic experiments by use of Normalized Differential Vegetation Index and radiation temperature, derived from ground-based remote sensing, depicted that the positive relation between the heat reduction and health condition for the same vegetation species, Zoysia tenuifolia. This relation, however, was not observed among the different vegetation species. Remote sensing provides operative data for choosing plant spices and maintaining suitable vegetation conditions, which are vital for efficient roof planting.
