SIMAIR-road is used in the air quality control in municipalities and cities. The Internet based system works as a cost efficient complement to measurements and as a tool in the physical planning.
SIMAIR-road is appropriate to use for evaluations of air quality in streets and near open roads. For evaluations further away from the road, in areas where contributions from several roads are of importance, and at junctions we recommend SIMAIR-crossing.
One simple click…
SIMAIR-road shows a map of your municipality or city. All necessary information about meteorology, dispersion, concentrations from long range transport of air pollutants and urban background are already stored in the system. You can easily add data, if you have own measurements from the city.
For each road link, information is stored regarding the amount of traffic, type of vehicles, width of the road, speed limit etc. from the Swedish Transport Administration’s national road database. You can modify the information for more precise model results.
The databases in SIMAIR-road are updated with data one year at a time. Scenarios for the year 2020 are available in the system.
… initiates advanced calculations
By clicking on a road link, an advanced dispersion calculation is initiated, showing the environmental quality norms for a substance and the risks of it being exceeded. The total levels can also be divided up into pollutant contributions from abroad, from other areas in Sweden, from the municipality as a whole and from the traffic on the road link in question.
You can compare SIMAIR-road results with your own measurements and then receive an overall view of the air quality.
