Introduction

Air quality is a major issue for all the important cities in the world.Bucharest is no exception. The air pollution in Bucharest, due totraffic and industry, is abundant, especially in areas the humanpopulation is concentrated. The fast rate of economic growth isbringing more sources of air pollution.

AIRAWARE Project

AIRAWARE project, funded in the EU LIFE framework, is aiming tobuild a pilot air quality monitoring and forecasting system to ensure asustainable development of the rapidly expansive urban areas inBucharest, minimizing and preventing the air pollution impact onhuman health.

Project LIFE AIRAWARE

Project partners

The AIRAWARE system users list include the main local and national authorities in the domain of air quality monitoring, forecasting, air pollution abatement and mitigation of impacts, such as:

• National Meteorological Administration• Regional Environmental Protection Agency of Bucharest• Direction for Public Health of Bucharest• Centre for Urban Planning of Bucharest• Institute of Biology of the Romanian Academy• Meteo-France (as strategic European partner)

Project LIFE AIRAWARE

Components

The AIRAWARE system has a distributed architecture with dedicated sub-systems for:

• air quality monitoring

• numerical modeling and forecast

• geospatial portal for data integration, visualization, query and analysis

• slow-flow and rapid-flow feedback

AIRAWARE ONLINE GIS SYSTEM

Project LIFE AIRAWARE

Graphical interface

The web interface was designed according with end-users needs. The goal is to obtain a simple and friendly environment for air quality spatial data management. The webmapping interface has the following outline:

• The central map contains the cartographic representation of the spatial data stored in the GIS database.

• The overview map facilitates the user orientation and provides a mechanism for interactively re-centering the main map to a point selected with a simple mouse click.

• The layers list is used to determine the way the map is composed and displayed.

• The toolbar contains all the instruments needed for map navigation, database search, feature selection, buffer creation. The functionality of these tools is very similar with the one contained in every GIS desktop application.
