High-quality Local Climate Zones (LCZ) and Land Surface Temperature (LST) map pairs Dataset (SEA-LCZ-LST) of Five Southeast Asian cities

The SEA-LCZ-LST dataset is a multi-year, regionally tailored Local Climate Zone (LCZ) and Land Surface Temperature (LST) pairs dataset developed for five major Southeast Asian cities: Kuala Lumpur, Singapore, Jakarta, Bangkok, and Manila, using carefully selected cloud-free Landsat 8 and 9 scenes. By enforcing strict scene selection criteria and per-scene LCZ validation thresholds, the resulting LCZ maps provide a high-quality and temporally consistent representation of urban form in rapidly urbanising tropical environments.
