Climate change research is based on observations of environmental phenomena and is fundamentally based on scientific data measured at specific sites, indicated in previous mappings as points of special interest. This information is transformed into scientific content in the most diverse areas of knowledge, including architecture and urban planning. Our proposal is to highlight the importance of fieldwork, such as monitoring the climate situation. We consider monitoring based on cross-methodologies. Consequently, as an unfolding of this specific knowledge, we highlight the steps involved in these research processes: the development of devices and sensors; data collection; subsequent analyses; data models and proposals based on previous monitoring. Thinking about sustainable development encompasses transdisciplinarity and collective work, without which urban planners would not approach the environmental complexity faced today. We invite you to debate monitoring as part of a consistent and transversal contribution to planetary emergencies.
