Urban heat/freshness islands and surface temperature 2012
**Warning**
The 2012 version of Urban Heat/Freshness Islands and Surface Temperature is now replaced by a more recent version from 2013-2014 and 2020-2022. Data from the 2012 version is archived on Data Québec for consultation, for example for old reports or analyses referring to this version of the data. Any new study or analysis should use the most recent data available on Data Quebec * [Urban heat/freshness islands and relative temperature differences 2013-2014] (https://www.donneesquebec.ca/recherche/dataset/ilots-de-chaleur-fraicheur-urbains-et-ecarts-de-temperature-relatifs-2013-2014) * and * [Urban heat/freshness islands and relative temperature differences 2020-2022] (https://www.donneesquebec.ca/recherche/dataset/ilots-de-chaleur-fraicheur-urbains-et-ecarts-de-temperature-relatifs-2020-2022) *.
**Description**
Presentation of urban heat and freshness islands, as well as surface temperature.
This product was created by INSPQ and CERFO in 2012, financed in part by the Green Fund as part of measure 21 of the [2006-2012 Climate Change Action Plan (PACC)] (http://www.mddelcc.gouv.qc.ca/changements/plan_action/2006-2012_fr.pdf) of the Government of Quebec.
Mapping was carried out for distribution areas with a population density >= 400 inhabitants per km2 and adjacent distribution areas.
Purpose: Locate urban heat and freshness islands, and present a surface temperature gradient.**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**
