  1. A very simple answer is that in cities with high humidity, usually the basements of the house have the problem of high humidity 
    They use dehumidifiers to bring the humidity down. This is a very simple way to get the humidity of air

  2. Atmospheric water generator

    Yes. An atmospheric water generator (AWG), is a device that extracts water from humid ambient air.
    Water has been collected from the air for at least 2,000 years using air wells in Middle Eastern deserts, and later in Europe. Historical records indicate the use of water-collecting fog fences.
    AWGs are very useful in locations where pure drinking water is difficult or impossible to obtain, as there is almost always a small amount of water in the air.  http://goo.gl/w9wD
