Integrated Traffic Management and Air Quality Control Using Space Services

iTRAQ is a project to develop a dynamic traffic management system for optimising use of the road network whilst meeting growing demands to sustain high standards of air quality in urban environments. The overall objective of this study is to establish whether an integrated system of traffic and air quality management, strengthened through the use of GNSS, air quality and meteorology data from space-borne assets, could provide societal and economic benefits through implementation at the local authority level. This feasibility study will define the requirements for an integrated traffic and air quality management system, which would use a selection of in-situ and satellite data to provide improved information and advice to local authorities.
