Replication Data for: Quality control and correction method for air temperature data from a citizen science weather station network in Leuven, Belgium

This dataset presents crowdsourced data from the Leuven.cool network, a citizen science network of around 100 low-cost weather stations (Fine Offset WH2600) distributed across Leuven, Belgium. The data was quality controlled and corrected by a newly developed station specific temperature quality control (QC) and correction procedure. The procedure consists of three levels removing implausible measurements, while also correcting for inter (in between stations) and intra (station-specific) station temperature biases by means of a random-forest approach.
