ISTHAR KICK OFF MEETING THE POINT OF VIEW OF THE USER CITY : GRAZ - AUSTRIA
City of Graz- location 270.000 Citizens
City of Graz- available tools -1 • Emission inventory • Traffic, residential combustion, industry • Spatial resolution: street network 80% line sources, rest as area sources • Temporal resolution: 1h • Traffic model: resistance model • Dispersion tool: meso g scale, prognostic, diagnostic
City of Graz- available tools -2 • Noise model (inventory) • Traffic on street network (simple resistance model) • Temporal resolution: 1h • Spatial resolution: street network • Dispersion tool: local scale (street canyon)
FLOW FIELD SIMULATION Flow field 10 m above ground
NO2-Concentration 9am [ppm]
Pollution dispersion in complex terrain Annual mean value for NO2
Micro-scale dispersion – street level NE-wind 1m/s; flow field
Micro-scale dispersion – street level NE-wind 1m/s; NOx - concentration
Expected results from ISHTAR • Hot spot recognition • Impact of different scenarios • Technical measures • New technology vehicles, alternative fuels, etc. • Rerouting of traffic, congestions…… • Non technical measures • Change in modal split for certain districts
Expected results from ISHTAR • Infrastructural improvements • Air quality improvement (not really, except at some locations) • Lower noise levels (yes) • Reduced health effects (yes/no, but mapping of health effects zones)
