There are 4 files

1) Temperature transect along the West Ridge of Grandeur Peak (east sidewall of Salt Lake City basin):

hobo_grandeur_v1.csv

2) Temperature transect along the Harkers Ridge (west sidewall of Salt Lake City basin):

hobo_harker_v1.csv

3) Temperature transect in and out of the Bingham Canyon Mine (from bottom of mine to the Jordan River.

hobo_kennecott_t_v1.csv

4) Relative Humidity transect  in and out of the Bingham Canyon Mine (from bottom of mine to the Jordan River.

hobo_kennecott_rh_v1.csv

Note that the format of 3 and 4 are the same, but only some of the hobos measured RH - thus the frequent occurrence of the missing value of -99.99.

Temperatures are in Degrees Celsius,
Relative Humidity values in %


-----------------------------------
ALTITUDES GIVEN ARE APPROXIMATE !!!
-----------------------------------

Altitude values were taken with a handheld GPS altimeter and/ or a altimeter watch - both of questionable quality. The GPS was sporadically calibrated with the GPS altitude.

I plan to compile a list of all readings taken at the sites.

Format explanation
-----------------------------------
Line 1: Short names of hobo sites (Gl = Grandeur Line; HL = Harkers Line; Im: in mine; OM: outer mine; Kl: Kennecott Line (outside mine property).
Line 2: Planned Elevation of Deployment
Line 3: Latitude (handheld GPS)
Line 4: Longitude (handheld GPS)
Line 5: Elevation Estimate (estimate from handheld GPS, altimeter watch)
Line 6: Hobo index
Line 7: Column index
Line 8: Column description - date/time columns (UTC), serial numbers of hobos. Note that some hobos have been replaced by others during the experiment - this does not reflect in the serial number column, which lists the number of the hobo initially deployed.

Line 9-xxx the data.


Enjoy!
