Researchers at Gonzaga University build a heat map of Spokane to 'Beat The Heat'
"Community volunteers who have signed up and been trained will drive routes fanning across Spokane. They will drive the routes three times today, morning, afternoon and evening. On their car window they will have an instrument that reads temperature and humidity, and records it once per second. All of this data will be combined to create high-resolution maps of Spokane showing which areas have urban heat islands."
