Currently, the air quality improvement in excessively polluted areas is managed on local level, without respecting major causes of pollution and without optimization of measures to improvement. Air pollution is specific with its cross-border overrun, so it cannot be effectively managed without an international and regional cooperation. The main objective of the project is to create effective international air quality management through development of joint information database, management and prediction tools and air quality strategies. Joint regional approach to this issue is the main change brought by this project through “evidence based policy” and “result based management”. The main outputs of the project are a unified spatial database of needed information on international level, tools for efficient management of air quality (Air Quality Management System and Prediction Warning System) and a suggestion of strategies for improving air quality and reduction of emissions from various sources on the level of FUAs and regions of the TRITIA region. Five FUAs (Ostrava, Opava, Zilina, Opole, Rybnik), and regions of 3 countries (Czech Republic, Slovakia, Poland) are involved into the project partnership and they will take active part in creation of a local (FUAs) and regional strategies (TRITIA). The main innovation of the project is the application of joint cooperation approach to air quality management on international level with detailed mathematical modelling by use of supercomputers, verification of results by various types of measurements, and a joint proposal of optimal mix of measures with impact on human health accompanied with cost evaluation. The proposed procedures and outputs will be applicable anywhere in Central Europe, in the areas with similar problems. (English)
