Example of the Aerius Overlay NOX result type

The Aerius module calculates NOX and NH3 pollution on Natura 2000 areas by using the AERIUS Connect Api. The Aerius module can be used for the following:

• Calculate emissions for roads based on the type of road and the number of vehicles per traffic category.
• Calculate the emissions for planned constructions, based on fuel usage of the construction machines, materials used and the created apartments, houses and office space.
• Calculate the pollution of NOX and NH3 on nearby Natura 2000 areas.

Concept

1. Existing or to be constructed buildings create NOX and NH3 emissions. These emissions also possibly pollute Natura 2000 areas.
2. The emissions are categorized by Aerius into sectors and sub types within these sectors.
3. Each sector has its own feature description, for which Aerius can calculate the corresponding emissions.
4. A Tygron Platform session represents a single situation in an Aerius calculation. This means that the Natura 2000 pollution is calculated for the current state of the project session, not per individual feature.
