Resumo: A new measurement system based on open source electronics (Arduino) was designed to obtain high frequency data to study Urban Heat Island (UHI). The instrument registers geo-referenced information of air temperature, relative humidity, barometric pressure and altitude above sea level in a moving vehicle. The device was designed to analyze the UHI in Bahia Blanca city, Argentina. Measurements were made with the method of urban transects during different days of summer and winter. The spatial distribution of air temperature was associated with wind direction and speed. Relative humidity was low in the downtown area and high in the periphery and the estuarine coast. In conclusion, the device allowed to study the Urban Heat Island in the city. Its use will be useful for urban planning because the measurements are very fast and accurate.

O instrumento registra informações georreferenciadas da temperatura do ar, umidade relativa, pressão barométrica e altitude acima do nível do mar em um veículo em movimento. O dispositivo foi projetado para analisar Ilha de Calor na cidade de Bahia Blanca , Argentina. A aplicação foi feita com o método de transectos urbano. Durante a diferentes dias: verão e inverno. Observou-se que a distribuição espacial da temperatura do ar foi associada com a direção e velocidade do vento e umidade relativa foi baixa no centro e alta na periferia e no litoral. Em conclusão, o dispositivo permitiu estudar a Ilha de Calor Urbana nesta cidade. Foi-útil para o planejamento urbano porque as medidas são muito rápida e precisa.Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro2016-05-10info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.ufrj.br/index.php/aigeo/article/view/698610.11137/2015_2_70_80Anuário do Instituto de Geociências; Vol 38, No 2 (2015); 70-80Anuário do Instituto de Geociências; Vol 38, No 2 (2015); 70-801982-39080101-9759reponame:Anuário do Instituto de Geociências (Online)instname:Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ)instacron:UFRJenghttps://revistas.ufrj.br/index.php/aigeo/article/view/6986/5553Copyright (c) 2016 Anuário do Instituto de Geociênciashttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessFerrelli, FedericoVitale, Alejandro JoséPiccolo, María Cintia2017-01-23T22:46:08Zoai:www.revistas.ufrj.br:article/6986Revistahttps://revistas.ufrj.br/index.php/aigeo/indexPUBhttps://revistas.ufrj.br/index.php/aigeo/oaianuario@igeo.ufrj.br||1982-39080101-9759opendoar:2017-01-23T22:46:08Anuário do Instituto de Geociências (Online) - Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ)false
