ATMO-PLAN for Harmonized Air Quality Modeling
ATMO-Plan is an online user interface on top of the ATMO-Street modelling chain. It allows users to configure ATMO-Street input, launch model simulations on an high performance computer and visualize and analyze the modeling results.
ATMO-Plan is used to support the preparation of urban air quality plans in the context of the EU Ambient Air Quality Directive and by air quality consultants preparing air quality impact assessments for compliance with environmental planning regulations.
ATMO-Plan offers authorities a tool to harmonize the modelling approach in their region. The software is configured with all input data to run the baseline scenario for a specific location. The user interface offers a lot of flexibility to create additional scenarios targeting:
- Road traffic
- Residential emissions
- Industrial point sources
The integrated road traffic emission model FASTRACE applies COPERT emission information to turn road traffic volumes into emission information.
