  • Abstract
    Vehicle emissions are significant contributors to the UK???s poor air quality which is damaging our health and economic prosperity. The generation of intelligence through the combination of disparate data sources offers significant potential to inform existing and future traffic control systems to manage vehicle emissions in sensitive physical environments, or where instantaneous traffic conditions represent the greatest threat. An Adaptive Environmental Controller (AEC) is seen as a possible solution to overcome this issue.
