Objectives of A Cool City Project
Phase 1:  Research on design and feasibility of residential
roof-top demonstration projects; demographic analysis and
identification of “hot” neighborhoods through thermal
imagery; selection of methods for test projects
Phase 2:  Implementation and documentation; measurement of
energy consumption in demonstration buildings; preliminary
assessment of air quality and public health impacts of UHI
mitigation

Phase 3:  Analysis of results and community outreach:
Including an economic impact assessment of energy savings
and benefits of cool roofing techniques, on an individual
building and the community scale.
