This tutorial demonstrates how to implement infrared visualization in your map application. Infrared imagery provides a different perspective of the landscape by showing heat signatures and vegetation health, which can reveal details not visible in standard imagery.
You'll learn how to:
- Enable and disable infrared visualization using checkbox controls
- Implement infrared toggle functionality in your user interface
- Understand the limitations of infrared visualization (2D mode only)
- Access the imagery layer's infrared capabilities through the API
Infrared visualization is particularly valuable for applications focused on environmental monitoring, agriculture, forestry, and disaster assessment. It helps users identify vegetation health, thermal anomalies, and other features that may not be apparent in standard visible-light imagery.
