The common approach in setting measuring instruments is the choice of a high sampling rate to detect short fluctuations and increase the accuracy of statistical analysis. However, in recent cultural heritage standards the evaluation of variability is based on moving average and short fluctuations and therefore massive acquisition of data in slowly-changing indoor environments could end up being redundant. In this research, the sampling frequency to set a datalogger in a museum room and inside a microclimate frame is investigated by comparing the outcomes obtained from datasheets associated with different sampling conditions. Thermo-hygrometric data collected in the Sorolla room of the Pio V Museum of Valencia (Spain) were used and the widely consulted recommendations issued in UNI 10829:1999 and EN 15757:2010 standards and in the American Society of Heating, Air-Conditioning and Refrigerating Engineers (ASHRAE) guidelines were applied. Hourly sampling proved effective in obtaining highly reliable results. Furthermore, it was found that in some instances daily means of data sampled every hour can lead to the same conclusions as those of high frequency. This allows us to improve data logging design and manageability of the resulting datasheets.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s16081291","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2016,8,15]],"date-time":"2016-08-15T09:47:20Z","timestamp":1471254440000},"page":"1291","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":21,"title":["Assessment of the Minimum Sampling Frequency to Avoid Measurement Redundancy in Microclimate Field Surveys in Museum Buildings"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"16","author":[{"given":"Fernando-Juan","family":"Garc\u00eda-Diego","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Applied Physics, Universitat Polit\u00e8cnica de Val\u00e8ncia, Av. de los Naranjos s\/n, Valencia 46022, Spain"},{"name":"Centro de Tecnolog\u00edas F\u00edsicas, Universitat Polit\u00e8cnica de Val\u00e8ncia, Av. de los Naranjos s\/n, Valencia 46022, Spain"}]},{"given":"Elena","family":"Verticchio","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physics, Sapienza Universit\u00e0 di Roma, P.le A.
