Abstract

Air quality remains as one of the pressing problems of urban areas. While air pollution modelling is a well-established field of research in environmental engineering, the challenge is to integrate Geographic Information System - GIS as a scientific tool for analysis within the environmental policy-making and management process.
This work aims to visualize modeled results from atmospheric dispersion of pollutants caused by traffic, using capabilities of open source GIS tool, e.g. QGIS. Supporting air dispersion modelling, QGIS provides release of information in a convenient and easily understandable way, which can be quickly distributed to necessary sides for further management and decision making.
