The microclimatemeter is a lightweight, compact backpack that can be worn easily during journeys to examine the effects of climate change carried out at the speed and level of the pedestrian anywhere in the city.
Instrumentation allows more than 20 parameters to be read. The measured values correspond to the true urban situation (accuracy, vegetation, morphology), which makes it possible to measure and characterise, in an objective and detailed way, the climatic scene felt by a subject or to qualify the climatic context which will determine the development of plants in the city, without having to make assumptions.
