Overview
Air pollutants can be harmful to
public health and the environment,
especially near roadways where
vehicles emit gases continually in
a localized area. Monitoring air
quality data near roadways can
assist with pollution mapping and
control; detecting emissions from
trafc ow, in tunnels, and near
construction projects; environmental
impact assessments, urban land
use planning and community health
programs (alerting the public about
poor air quality). The Vaisala Air
Quality Monitoring System AQM60
is a complete air quality monitoring
system designed to measure a wide
range of air quality parameters in a
cost-effective, compact package.
The Vaisala Air Quality Monitoring
System AQM60 system measures
many of the pollutants considered
harmful by the EPA (Environmental
Protection Agency) including:
Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2); Ozone (O3);
Carbon Monoxide (CO); Carbon
Dioxide (CO2); and Particulate Matter
(PM
and PM10). The Vaisala Air
2.5
Quality Monitoring System AQM60
integrates with RWIS (Road Weather
Information System), advisory radio
systems, and ITS software platforms
to provide weather, trafc and air
quality data on one system. This
allows customers to not only mitigate
and control pollutant levels, but
also save costs by combining their
weather and trafc monitoring with
the air quality system.
