MASHCA: Monitoring and Hydro Climatological Analysis of the Urban Microclimate of Latacunga
PROCEEDINGS OF THE 11TH INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON SENSOR NETWORKS (SENSORNETS)(2021)
Abstract
The climate change has become one of the most studied problems in recent years. Analyses of climate behavior have traditionally been treated in a macro way, that is, large areas of territory are analyzed. The development of humanity in particular, which has been denoted by the increase in population and therefore the growth of cities, has had an effect on the climate. The change in climatic conditions within cities due to the effects of construction, urban planning, modification of territories, among others, are known as urban micro-climates. These variations require special attention, since these apparently minimal changes can have a great effect on the life of the population. The purpose of this project is to study the historical data on the behavior of the urban climate of Latacunga, through the temporal analysis of the data obtained by the meteorological station of the Universidad de las Fuerzas ESPE, later to develop micro meteorological stations that are installed in various locations of the city, finally the information generated and its corresponding reports will be presented through a web page, thus allowing to have a tool that allows to identify the behavior of the urban microclimate of the city of Latacunga. The results obtained have made it possible to identify the maximum, minimum and most frequent values of temperature, humidity, speed and wind direction. In addition, with the installation of the new stations, the monitoring of variables such as solar radiation, atmospheric pressure, among others, has increased. With the information processed, it will allow the generation of recommendations oriented to risk management, urban planning and citizen security.
