- 01HC2MK35ASNFEDSXA3KDCM0Z2 abstract "Initiating an urban climate network and operating it for a multi-year period forms a challenging task. Nevertheless, reliable meteorological data from diverse urban and non-urban environments are important to progress urban climate science and are highly relevant for city administrations. The citizen science project called VLINDER addresses this observational need based on an intense collaboration with high schools. Joining forces with schools has resulted in a regional climate monitoring network of about 70 accurate weather stations in a wide variety of locations across northern Belgium e.g. in city centers, forests, lakes, industrial environments,... All stations measure temperature, relative humidity, precipitation, wind, and pressure. Moreover, a few stations have recently been equipped with black globes to assess thermal comfort. The resulting data can be consulted in realtime on the project’s dashboard (https://vlinder.ugent.be/dashboard/) which contains an API to extract the data. To guarantee a sustainable and mutually valuable collaboration, the schools and their students have been involved at all stages, ranging from proposing measurement locations, building the weather stations, and even data analysis. The approach received overwhelming enthusiasm from high schools and students, and resulted in a high-accuracy monitoring network with unique locations offering novel insights. The data collected by the stations have been used both by schools, who received educational material to explore the data in the classroom, and by scientists e.g. to evaluate hectometric NWP runs. With this presentation we would like to share our lessons learnt to encourage and help colleagues in exploring and setting up solid and durable collaborations with schools.".
