New idea of a distributed temperature measurement, where many isolated temperature sensors can freely move in some objective area getting their locational informations and sending them to a host terminal, will be proposed in this study. As a first step to demonstrate this idea, temperature measurement experiment in some area inside Kyoto city has been conducted using a set of existing portable sensors, compact thermistor-type temperature sensor and a handy-type GPS (Global Positioning System) receiver. Both equipments have no sending function but can sequentially save their data inside their memories. Five persons, each having one set of them as so called a sensor, walked or rode bicycles inside the objective area. Although the obtained data were processed after they were transported to a personal computer, each equipment worked well and the obtained tempearure distributions can rationally be understood. Thus, it was demonstrated that the present measuring method is appricable to the temperature analysis etc. in the city area.
