Climatewalks
Climatewalks are an experimental approach to observe, gather and map environmental, physiological and psychological data to bring the human dimension to the center of concerns for healthy urban living. Addressing the health measures and instructed by the WHO:
“Health is a state of complete physical, mental and social wellbeing and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity. The enjoyment of the highest attainable standard of health is one of the fundamental rights of every human being without distinction of race, religion, political belief or economic and social condition.”We designed the Climatewalks experiment to sense microclimatic variations and outdoor comfort conditions in the built environment with a high spatiotemporal resolution employing portable devices. The workflow allows putting into evidence the relation between microclimatic conditions and individual thermal behaviour, generating climatic knowledge of urban space.
