Urban Indicators Dataset: Drinking Water, Urban Heat, and Housing Provision

This dataset paper presents a comprehensive compilation of indicators covering three major domains: drinking water supply, urban heat, and housing provision. The data were systematically collected from a wide range of peer-reviewed papers to ensure a robust foundation for both academic research and practical policy analysis. The dataset includes a total of 280 indicators, each categorized and described. The indicators are organized into a relational database format, which allows for easy access and manipulation. The dataset was collected to facilitate cross-sectoral analysis, enabling researchers and practitioners to explore the interconnections between these critical areas of urban planning. The key indicators are described with clear definitions, calculations, and provenance information. Additionally, the dataset is organized in a relational SQL database, allowing users to perform advanced queries, join operations, and custom analyses. Potential applications span a variety of research areas, such as urban planning, environmental impact assessment, public health, and socio-economic studies.
