Environmental Monitoring-Air Quality Monitoring
Artemis Engineering has more than ten years collaboration with the Atmospheric Chemistry and Innovative Technology Laboratory (AirTechLab) of NCSR “Demokritos” in the field of Air Quality measurements using our aircraft, UAV’s and drones. We offer several advantages over traditional ground-based monitoring stations, including the ability to collect data from multiple locations simultaneously, cover large areas quickly, and access hard-to-reach or hazardous areas.
Some key points of air quality assessment using drones and aircraft are:
- Remote Sensing of various air pollutants, including PM, NO2, CO, SO2, VOC’s
- Real-time Monitoring of toxics during and after industrial accidents and/or physical disasters
- High Spatial Resolution
- Mobile Monitoring
- Flexibility and Accessibility
- Data Integration and Analysis
- Cost-effectiveness
ICARUS
ICARUS (Integrated Climate forcing and Air pollution Reduction in Urban Systems) was a European research and innovation project active from May 2016 to October 2020. The project applied integrated tools and strategies for urban impact assessment in support of air quality and climate change governance in EU Member States leading to the design and implementation of appropriate abatement strategies to Artemis Engineering performed aerial measurements in order to monitor air pollutants over European cities and also took part in the development of the ICARUS Decision Support System (DSS) through GIS technologies, an essential key-tool for providing strategies and disseminating air quality information to European Organizations and citizens.mprove the air quality and reduce the carbon footprint in European cities.
TREEADS
Artemis Engineering in collaboration with NCSR DEMOKRITOS participated in Treeads Project collecting air samples and performing forest mapping using our specially configured light manned aircraft.
