About
This collection offers daily meteorological observations specifically gathered for the Delhi region. The information includes critical measurements such as mean temperature, humidity levels, recorded wind speed, and mean pressure over a defined period. The primary motivation for compiling this resource is to ensure that researchers, environmental specialists, and governmental policymakers have access to accurate, current climate data necessary for conducting detailed climate research, analyzing developing weather patterns, and formulating informed decisions related to environmental strategy and practices. The raw information is derived directly from official governmental sources.
Columns
The data structure contains five key fields:
- date: Indicates the specific date for which the weather data was recorded. The data spans from 1 January 2013 up to 24 April 2017.
- meantemp: Represents the average temperature calculated across the entire day. The values range from 6.0 to 38.7.
- humidity: Refers to the moisture level present in the atmosphere, typically presented as a percentage. Measurements range from 13.4 to 100.
- wind_speed: Denotes the velocity at which air moves horizontally past a reference point, measured in appropriate units (e.g., km/h or m/s). Speeds vary from 0 to 42.2.
- meanpressure: Represents the average atmospheric pressure exerted at the location throughout the day, usually measured in units like millibars (mb) or hectopascals (hPa).
Distribution
The data is typically available in a single CSV file format (DailyDelhiClimate.csv, 85.25 kB) and consists of five columns. There are 1576 valid records, with no observed instances of missing or mismatched data entries across the fields. The standard deviation for mean temperature is 7.34, and for humidity, it is 17. The expected update frequency for this specific product is never.
Usage
Ideal applications for this data include:
- Conducting historical climate research on weather variability in the Delhi region.
- Developing and validating meteorological predictive models.
- Assisting environmental scientists in monitoring and documenting changes in local atmospheric conditions.
- Providing foundational data for governmental studies influencing environmental policy.
Coverage
The data focuses exclusively on the climate of the Delhi region. The temporal scope covers daily observations beginning on 1 January 2013 and concluding on 24 April 2017.
