<p class="MsoNormal">As part of an ongoing research project, looking at the application of machine learning models to the prediction of summertime indoor temperatures in residential buildings, we are currently looking for a large open-access data set to continue
our work <span style="font-size:10.0pt;mso-fareast-language:EN-GB"><a href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0360132318304530">https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0360132318304530</a>.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<ul style="margin-top:0cm" type="disc">
<li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0cm;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">Ideally we would like access to hourly or sub-hourly dry-bulb or operative temperature data from about 30-50 dwellings (or more specifically 30-50 rooms within dwellings) which demonstrate
varying degrees of overheating across a continuous 2-3 month period.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0cm;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">We also need to access the external weather data (temp and GHI) and some basic information about the dwellings (orientation, size, approximate location, nearest weather station, and
what the room or zone is) but we don’t require detailed construction or occupancy profiles etc.
<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0cm;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">We would ideally like a recent UK or European dataset, but are open to suggestions.<o:p></o:p></li></ul>
