The standard weather station network, belonging to the national weather forecast service, cannot satisfy the requirements of advanced simulation tools because of the network density, time interval of recording, collections of measured values or availability of measured data and its price. Due to the outdoor climate change, urban heat islands and advance in research it is vital to obtain precise data sets for the measured location. Since 2014, also the experimental weather station, which continuously records the wind flow, air temperature, humidity, solar radiation, rain and atmospheric air pressure, is a part of University of Zilina campus.
