Temperature of a homogeneous land surface

[Ardit]

Hello,

I have temperature and emissivity data values for different land types (i.e. rock, vegetation etc.) of an area in form of image pixels.
Because there are different land types, they show different temperatures.
I want to know the temperature of these pixels as if they were of the same land type.
In other words, I want to remove the land type effect in the result temperature that I want to calculate.
And let's say that emissivity range is 0 to 1. Can I simply multiply the temperature with the emissivity value to get what I want?

Yes, you can multiply the temperature with the emissivity value in order to remove the land type effect. However, it is important to note that the result will depend on the accuracy of the emissivity data and the accuracy of the temperature data. If either of these values are not accurate, then the result may not be accurate. Additionally, it is important to consider the range of the emissivity values. If the range is too wide, then the result may be inaccurate.
