This data paper addresses this limitation by presenting a dataset of the modeled daily maximum Urban Heat Island (UHI<sub>max</sub>) effect across 99 Dutch municipalities during the summer of 2023. This is achieved by implementing a semi-empirical equation which incorporates readily available meteorological variables and two key urban morphological indicators, namely the sky view factor and fractional vegetation cover. Two primary datasets are presented: (1) a high-resolution dataset of modeled UHI<sub>max</sub>, and (2) a Sky View Factor dataset. Both datasets are provided in GeoTIFF format at a 5-meter spatial resolution. Additionally, this paper presents a straightforward methodology for obtaining UHI<sub>max</sub> values for other periods. The datasets and accompanying methodology provide valuable resources for advancing urban climate research, urban planning, and heat mitigation strategies in the Netherlands.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":10973,"journal":{"name":"Data in Brief","volume":"60 ","pages":"Article 111525"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143777520","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The survey evaluated the incidence of acute kidney injury in patients hospitalized and exposed to antimicrobials in a public hospital in the state of Pará, Brazil. A prospective and observational cohort was carried out, whose outcome of interest is the occurrence of AKI in patients admitted to the hospital between October 2018 and January 2019.
