STANDARDIZATION AND ANALYSIS OF URBAN HEAT ISLAND: DATA COLLECTION WITH MOBILE SYSTEM IN GOIÂNIA-GO

Abstract

Research into the urban microclimate is important in the area of urban planning, helping to create resilient cities in the face of current climate change conditions. The article aims to present a methodology for collecting mobile data to analyze the possibility of the urban heat island phenomenon occurring in the Itatiaia district of Goiânia - GO, using mobile transects. The research methodology has three stages: definition of the object of study; data collection; and systematization of data and analysis of results.  The analysis revealed that densely urbanized areas, with little vegetation, have a higher heat island intensity, reaching  peak temperatures due to heat retention in materials such as asphalt and concrete. In contrast, places along the linear park showed lower temperatures, related to the vegetation that provides shade and evapotranspiration. Thus, it can be seen that the standardization of the mobile transect is essential in order to obtain reliable data.
