Abstract

In this work an Operational Street Pollution Model was used to define the minimum number and the expected position of the stations for an air quality network with three monitoring stations to be installed in Battipaglia (Italy). The features of the urban background, the type of daily traffic, all the meteorological parameters typical of the investigated area, were implemented in the software to simulate the hourly emissions. These allowed to determine the feasible number of air sampling station and their best location points.
