Pervasive Air-quality Sensors Network for an Environmental Friendly Urban Traffic Management (RESCATAME)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2010, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2012,
Background
Air pollution remains a serious cause for concern in Europe. High pollution levels have a significant adverse effect on human health and on the environment, particularly in urban agglomerations where traffic emissions are high. A recent study carried out by the Observatory of Sustainability in Spain (OSE) on air quality in cities shows that liv ...
