A GIS based air quality system for the Apulia region, southern Italy
A GIS based air quality modelling system has been developed in Apulia region in the Southern Italy, to support local authorities in air quality management. Meteorological and dispersion simulations were performed for the year 2005. Predictions have been compared with concentration data from the air quality monitoring network. Results evidence a good correlation between predictions and ...

Development of a GIS-based urban air quality modelling system for transport-related pollution
In recent years motor vehicles have become the dominant source of air pollution in metropolitan areas. Hence, the assessment of transport-related air quality is of major concern to policymakers and municipal planners. This paper describes an urban air quality modelling system for evaluating the environmental effects of transport related air pollution. A preliminary evaluation of the model has ...

SICAH: an automatic system for the control and prevention of air pollution in Huelva (Spain)
An automatic system for control of the air pollution in the industrialised area of Huelva has being developed by CIEMAT. This system is called "Sistema informatico para control y prevencion de la contaminacion atmosferica en Huelva" (SICAH). SICAH is a Visual C++ programme that runs under Windows 95/NT. SICAH includes a Geographic Information System (GIS) and runs Fortran numerical ...

ADMS and ADMS-Urban
ADMS and ADMS-Urban are new generation air quality models that are easy to use and attractively presented. They run on a PC under Windows and are suitable for modelling of industrial and urban dispersion problems for comparison with limits, planning, and 'what if' scenarios. Each model can be linked to a GIS (geographical information system) for simple entry of sources and clear presentation of ...

Evaluation of AirGIS: a GIS–based air pollution and human exposure modelling system
This study describes in brief the latest extensions of the Danish Geographic Information System (GIS)–based air pollution and human exposure modelling system (AirGIS), which has been developed in Denmark since 2001 and gives results of an evaluation with measured air pollution data. The system shows, in general, a good performance for both long–term averages (annual and monthly averages), ...

A decision support system for air quality management combining GIS and optimisation techniques
This paper describes a multi-tiered approach to the design of plans and policies for urban environmental management, in particular air quality, as related to the energy and transportation sectors. The approach is based on the iterative combination of sectoral and global optimisation models, including a discrete multi-criteria approach, and spatially distributed air quality models. The approach ...
