Objective
This project will develop, install and validate a fully ingineered prototype of a low cost instrument to mesure, at the roadside, emissions from individual vehicles in motion under normal driving conditions. The instrument will be coupled to existing automatic number plate readers to allow information on vehicle type, age, and engine size and type to be correlated with the emission measurements. The low cost of the system will enable its use in long-term installations and multiple locations to provide continuously updated data on real-world emissions. This data is needed to model the impact of policy or legislation changes. The system will be istalled initially in three European cities to compare the effects of climate, street geometry, driver behaviour and fleet differences on emissions inventories.
