7. The ensemble forecast service • was identified in the Review Meetings as anoutstanding project result. • WP7 of MarcoPolo: continuingthis service afterthe end of the project byfindinginterested users. • The MarcoPolo-PANDA consortium shouldconcentrate on data delivery, not on end productssuch as Apps. • Therefore, the information on the website is more of a showcase of what we are capable of.

8. “For dissemination of the MarcoPolo air quality forecasting results and the use of the air quality indicators, the results of the EuropeAid project, AirINFORM (EU-CHINA Environmental Governance Programme) will be considered. In this project, the public access to air quality information in China will be examined, and the recently revised Air Quality Index will be evaluated against international indices.” Nele Veldeman, Lisa Blyth

9. AirINFORM Project Factsheet • EuropeAid EU-China Environmental Governance Programme • Goal: Improve air quality information systems and public awareness tools in pilot cities of China to enhance public access to environmental information • Duration: 1 Nov 2012 to 31 Oct 2014 • Partners: DCMR, CAEP, LIBOVITO, Pilot City EPB’s • Pilot Cities: Yangzhou (key), Taiyuan, Urumqi
