Temperature and humidity observations in Kampala, Uganda, during the boreal summer 2018-2019

Both climate change and rapid urbanization accelerate exposure to heat in the city of Kampala, Uganda. To investigate the heterogeneous distribution of temperature and humidity throughout the city, we set up a network of low-cost iButton sensors, operational in the boreal summer months of 2018-2019. This dataset provides the observational data of 45 sensors installed at 15 different locations in the city of Kampala.气候变化与快速城市化共同加剧了乌干达坎帕拉市的热暴露风险。为探究坎帕拉全市范围内温度与湿度的空间非均匀分布特征，我们搭建了一套低成本iButton传感器（iButton）监测网络，并于2018至2019年的北半球夏季时段投入运行。本数据集收录了该市15个不同布设点位上的45个传感器的观测数据。
