This data article describes the “Typical Regional Activity Patterns” (TRAP) dataset

which is based on the Tackling Key Problems in Air Pollution Control Program. In order to explore the interaction between air pollution and physical activity

we collected activity patterns of 9

221 residents with different occupations and lifestyles for three consecutive days in typical regions (Jinan and Baoding) where air pollutant concentrations were higher than those in neighboring areas. The TRAP dataset consists of two aspects of information: demographic indicators (personal information

occupation

personal habits

and living situation) and physical activity pattern data (activity location and intensity); additionally

the exposure measures of physical activity patterns are included

which data users can match to various endpoints for their specific purpose. This dataset provides evidence for exploring the attributes of activity patterns of residents in northern China and for interdisciplinary researchers to develop strategies and measures for health education and health promotion.
