Topic Air quality

A.2 Project summary

Description Regulatory Air Quality monitoring networks cannot achieve sufficient spatial resolution for assessing citizens groups exposure, particularly in small cities. Thus, Public Authorities lackrelevant data and tools to design targeted improvement and remediation policies while citizens lack targeted information. Moreover, significant institutional and cultural barriers betweencitizens and PAs have grown, distorting the shared perception and diminishing the impact of AQ policies. AIR-HERITAGE aims to build a framework based on pervasive AQ monitoring,integrating regulatory monitoring stations, solid state based fixed stations and citizens mobile personal exposure analyzers in a fully synergistic network. Coupled with high resolutionmodeling tools, data will be used to fuel an innovative AQ Policy Decision Support System. Citizen engagement in AQ policies will be innovated through availability of personal exposurefeedbacks and targeted data sharing implementing a crowdsensing social network that will become part of the policy making process. All this will be leveraged to improve PA capability todesign efficient and participated policies improving existing ones. PA officers and citizens associations will cooperate providing their own monitored AQ data, recorded during daily activities.Thus, the cooperative nature of AIR-HERITAGE will bridge the existing gap among the AQ relevant actors, increasing citizens engagement in policies, ultimately impacting on air quality levels.

Involvement in the design phase The UA has enriched and strengthened the starting project idea by issuing a public Notice aiming to select valuable partners for the 3rd UIA Call. To this aim, severalinternal meetings among the involved UA Depts (reported above), with the coordination of the Municipal Assessor to the Environment and the Portici Mayor supervision,have been organized. This approach allowed the UA to activate a local based partnership supporting the administration in the further project development.

Involvement in the implementation phase The UA has already acted in the past to support local initiatives that took advantage from highly renowned public bodies (University, ENEA) to involve citizens in thecultural development of the town (e.g. Fondazione Portici Campus). On the basis of these experiences and following the results of the public Notice, meetings amongthe involved partners and the local stakeholders will be organized and utilized as a feedback for this project based on citizens involvement and innovative technologies.The UA will be the coordinator of the project (UA will express the project & communication manager for the best finalization of WP2 and WP3) and will support thedelivery partners in the on-site technical and social deployment (WP4, WP7).

Competences and experiences in relation tothe challenge addressed?

The UA and its Environment Office activated specific Air Quality monitoring activities since 2014, giving evidence of the local related problems although, due to the lackof citizen awareness no solution has been taken into consideration. UA has a deep knowlegde of the urban specificity and related environmental problems. Theproject will help in promoting air quality improvement measures and their societal acceptability; a remarkable best practice for a large number of LocalAdministrations.

Experience in participating in and/or managingEU co-financed projects or other internationalprojects.

The city of Portici is one of the twenty cities over fifty thousand inhabitants, identified by the Campania region, on which to intervene with integrated urbanredevelopment programs (P.I.U.Europa FESR 2007-2013).The P.I.U.Europa Memorandum of Understanding was signed on 1 August 2008. The strategy of the Program foresees actions and interventions articulated in relationto the three objectives:More Nature;More History;More Community.

Part C - Project description

C.1 Project relevance and innovativeness

C.1.1 Main challenge(s) to be addressed

Main challenge(s) to beaddressed

Air pollution has both acute and chronic effects on human health, affecting different systems and organs [1]. Recent studies consistently link particulate air pollution and people illnessranging from cardiovascular and respiratory problems to cancer [2,3].In response, the EU has issued an extensive legislation that sets health-based objectives and assessment standards for several air pollutants (see [4,5]).However, given the sparseness ofthe resulting regulatory monitoring networks, limited amount of localized Air Quality (AQ) data are available in EU small cities, consequently Urban Authorities (UA) AQ policies are only looselybased on actual data.Targeting the improvement of life quality, EU issued guidelines for sustainable urban mobility plans (SUMP) [6]. Transportation is actually believed to account for 30-50% of the environmental pollution in urban areas (>80% for particulate matter) [6,7]. Thus, a rational management of transportation can greatly impact AQ in urban areas.Portici (4.52 km2) [12], is a paradigmatic area to develop and implement AQ friendly mobility plans (Table 1). In fact, Portici has a very high residential density (12.170,8/km2), the highest inItaly. Ad-hoc measurement campaigns found average values of PM10 and PM2.5 for the year 2017 reaching significant values (36, 21 ug/m 3̂,respectively) [8]. It is located in south of Italywithin Napoli-Caserta conglomeration, characterized by high anthropic pressure on AQ and increased cancer incidence. During 2015-2017, 15% of regional monitoring reference stationsnetwork exceeded the limit on yearly average concentration of PM10 and NO2 while 40% exceeded for more than 35 days the daily limit for PM10 and outlooks are negative. Economically, AQmay impact tourism activities whose increase is actively sought by the Portici UA. From a social point of view, coarse scale AQ information, along with education levels issues, causesreduced and distorted awareness of AQ issues, with lack of communication occurring between UAs and citizens. Coarse AQ information may actually not reflect citizens experience,determining a distorted perception challenging regulators authoritativeness and exacerbating distances. Reduced awareness also slows down the engagement in AQ friendly mobility: eachday more than 60% of Portici primary school parents use cars for short home-school path (<500m) [9] and e-bike sharing subscriptions cover less than 0.3% of the population.AIR-HERITAGE tackles the challenge of reducing Air pollution in suburban EU cities by 1. enabling pervasive data based efficient AQ policy design for UAs, 2. improving citizen engagement inall phases of the process from data gathering to UA policy review 3. enabling automatic feedbacks between AQ monitoring and Intelligent Transport System (ITS). The challenges thus needan integrated approach bringing innovation at social, behavioural, political and technical level eventually bridging the gap among regulators and citizens.

C.1.2 Proposed solution

Proposed solution We aim to the development of an integrated framework that coalesces citizens, UAs and environmental protection agencies in the design and implementation of (citizen) science based airquality monitoring and amelioration policies. This will be achieved through a cohesive workplan targeting innovation in pervasive monitoring (WP4), UIAQ DSS (Urban Innovative Air QualityDecision Support system (WP5-WP6), Policies and Civic engagement (WP7) (Fig.1). Core of the project is the development of high resolution, “civic no. level”, pollutant mapping capabilitybuilt by fusing data produced by a heterogeneous pervasive monitoring network including regulatory monitoring stations, fixed multisensors systems and validated portable multisensorydevices (WP4). Fixed network will address the lack of a ground truth based continuous air quality assessment of CdP while ARPAC will speed up the technology uptake achieving HiRes pollutionsensing/mapping capabilities by integrating indicative measurements. Mobile devices will also produce personal and localized personal exposure feedback to the users. Throughstakeholders involvement (WP7), selected groups will be trained for cooperating to monitoring actions during their usual mobility pattern,with specific campaigns and ad-hoc tasking. WP7will simultaneously ensure citizen involvement in 0 emissions mobility campaigns aiming to behavioural change. Sharing the monitored data through social networking procedures willmotivate their participation in the actions ultimately impacting on air quality levels. Sensor level mapping tools (WP4) will allow entire citizenship to receive localized information on AQimproving the awareness (WP3,7). The integration of citizen produced data in the decision process will further motivate to support AQ policies. Actually, assimilating the high resolutionsensed data, an HIRes air pollution predictive model will be developed (WP5) and integrated in a UIAQ DSS (Urban Innovative Air Quality Decision Support System WP6) supporting urbanauthorities in traffic regulation and pollution mitigation policies by predicting their efficacy in the target areas [Wp7]. The cooperation among CdP, ARPAC and Legambiente will allow foridentification/improvement of remediation policies innovation in mobility (Ebike sharing, Ecars facilitated access and exemptions). Eventually, a cooperatively built knowledge will shape Airpollution mitigation policies bridging the gap between citizens, regulatory monitoring agencies and urban authorities also by a means of pervasive Communication startegy also based onworkshops and ad-hoc meetings (WP3). WP2 and WP8 will, respectively, ensure smooth coordination of activities mitigating the framework actuation risks and the transferability, byappropriate packaging of Pervasive Monitoring Guidelines, UIAQ DSS product and Civic Engagement Procedures.

C.1.3 Innovativeness of the proposed solution

Innovativeness of theproposed solution

Generating targeted AQ information conflicts with current EU AQ regulatory framework based on sparse networks which do not reflect the spatial-temporal variability of AQ at road scale. Thelack of local AQ information in small cities limits citizens’ awareness, reducing the adoption of AQ friendly lifestyle and exacerbating the distance between citizens and UAs. To this regard, alimited number of initiatives have been applied, to date, by UAs within small cities as in Portici (2014-2017 campaigns). The focus was typically on temporary operation of additional AQanalyzers in a few hotspots [8]. Furthermore, data were often communicated with an over-simplistic approach determining a lack of understanding and ultimately low levels of engagement incitizens. Other initiatives focus on adopting intelligent transport systems and/or equipping them with AQ analyzers for sharing gathered data (Zurich OpenSense). Instead, the concept of citizens’ observatory for urban AQ has been technically explored in several US and European RIA initiatives. The main focus has been on the development of novelfixed and mobile components for environmental monitoring to be also used by citizens, as well as innovative DSSs for policy makers helping them to identify measures for AQ improvementand to quantitatively assess their impact on citizens health. Relevant examples are EU projects as FP7-ENV-CITI-SENSE or COST-EUNetAir and, respectively, LIFE15 ENV/PT/674 Index-Air.Innovative methods for supporting citizen engagement in developing local environmental policies have been also experimented during the GIOCONDA Project (LIFE13 ENV/IT/225 -2014/2016), particularly addressed to young people.As a result, existing UA policies fails in reaching sufficient space-time resolution and citizen engagement, while RIA actions targetedinnovation in single aspects, lacking integration and/or UA involvement and failing in achieving long lasting effects. Starting from this, AIR-HERITAGE integrate all main citizens’ observatoryaspects by coordinating technological, political and social innovative actions in the Municipality of Portici. Our methodology is based on pervasive knowledge of the AQ state and an effectivesynergy between citizens and public administrations. In facts, we want to develop and implement an "intelligent" control and management system of traffic and air quality for the Municipality,through ITC solutions and targeted communication, behavioural change and engagement strategies. An innovative HiRes AQ mapping capability will be developed by fusing data producedby a a pervasive monitoring network, validated by analysers operated by citizens and urban authority personnel and by CAMS images, strongly innovating AQ monitoring [10]. Gathered datawill be used, through the predictive capability of the developed DSS, for selecting impacting and partecipated policies aimed at proposing different approaches to city mobility and informedmodulation of urban traffic flows.

C.1.4 Potential obstacles and resistance

Potential obstacles andresistance

The currently consolidated habits and lifestyles that often favor non-essential use for autonomous means of transport, the lack of awareness of the sources of air pollution related to personalchoices are certainly an obstacle that must be overcome. The urbanistic and settlement characteristics of the territory of Portici, extremely compressed and congested with little margins forthe construction of structural interventions, constitute a further obstacle that must be overcome.These impediments will be addressed through a systematic and widespread activity of information, awareness, involvement and responsibilization of citizens, supported by the technical-scientific activities of the project. Personal exposure monitors, operated by citizens, along with targeted feedback APPs, will empower their engagement in AQ friendly mobility throughenhanced awareness, participation to AQ knowledge building and implementation of monitoring campaigns.Activities to promote active citizenship, citizen science and environmental education will contribute to the empowerment and dissemination of virtuous behavior and actions also exploitingsocial networks capabilities.

C.1.5 Integrated Approach

Integrated approach Our region recent history [11] highlighted that environmental issues and among them, those related to AQ, cannot be faced exclusively through structural activities, but they must rather beassociated with intangible activities concerning the social, economic, cultural and educational sphere. As such, AIR-HERITAGE tackles AQ issues on various dimensions of life in urbanscenarios. Our citizen science approach to AQ monitoring seek impact on cultural dimension fostering the use of factual data for evaluating environmental status. At local governement level,the same approach is extended to the point of influencing policy makers as citizen becomes part of the decision process. This, along with increased awareness, will improve confidence inUAs and regulatory monitoring agencies. The social dimension is addressed by leveraging citizens associations devoting to different aspects of human life (Consumer Associations, SchoolParents and their representatives, Environmental Guards). Educational aspects are tackled by involving young citizens in primary school into sustainable mobility via specific projectsstimulating the awareness of the impact of their choices on environmental conditions. Ultimately, AIR-HERITAGE will stimulate the cooperation among local research agencies, university,urban authority and the citizenship preparing and securing a new level of cohesion in the city life with the clear objective of cooperatively ameliorating the quality of life of all the inhabitants.

C.2.1 Link with other local/regional/national strategies and policies (incl. smart specialisation strategies)

Link with otherlocal/regional/nationalstrategies and policies

With the implementation of the network of pervasive/mobile AQ monitoring devices, the traffic and air quality modeling, the implementation of a decision support system (DSS), the promotionof the active citizenship for air quality, the project is completely consistent with local/regional/national strategies and policies. In fact, national air quality laws entrust the regions theassessment of air quality and the planning and implementation of the measures for compliance with quality values. The Regional Plan for the Remediation and Maintenance of Air Quality ofCampania has classified the territory in homogeneous zones. The Municipality of Portici has been included in the "rehabilitation zone", as C6H6, NO2 and PM10 exceed the limit and themargin of tolerance. The measures of the Plan are divided according to the type of emission sources in:• measures concerning fixed diffuse sources,• transport measures (linear and widespread sources),• measures concerning point and localized sources.The participation and involvement of the social partners and the public are particularly requested by the Plan.The recently adopted Municipal Urban Planning Plan (PUC) contemplates the interconnecting natural spaces and the enhancing eco-sustainable mobility, directly related to the qualityproblem. air. The PUC identifies the ecological networks and the public and bicycle/pedestrian system as main actions for the restoration of air quality.

C.2.2 Synergies with other projects and initiatives

Synergies with otherprojects and initiatives

AIR-HERITAGE will build upon knowledge generated in funded or commercial projects as well as existing UA monitoring initiatives: the ENEA MONICA italian crowdfunding/crowdsensingproject has provided a feasibility check for technological+engagement concept as well as functional/acceptability results for its multisensor prototype, the basis for AIR-HERITAGE mobileanalyzer. It will continue to provide synergetic feedbacks on scalability/user perception as well as datasets for new data processing technologies. The Terraria UIAQ DSS (Urban Innovative AirQuality Decision Support System) open source tool is a DSS system based on emission inventories and will be improved with the inclusion of data assimilation schemes of high resolutionpollution data for developing the integrated Policy DSS. COST EuNetAir, have provided a scientific ground for validation of EC sensors proving them as best candidates for equipping mobileand pervasive AQ analyzers and meet indicative measurements DQO. From 2014 to 2018, UA has setup several 1 week monitoring initiatives, targeting PMs (1 site) and BTEXs (4 sites) inthe urban area. AIR-HERITAGE use the results to set baseline and target concentrations levels 1. in terms of pervasiveness and continuity of the measurements in the Portici area, 2. settingup a specific city wide high resolution AQ model, 3. integrating citizens provided measurements and the obtained knowledge in the UA policy process, 4. refocusing the target gas set.

C.2.3 Involvement of wider stakeholders in project design

Involvement of widerstakeholders in projectdesign

The following wider stakeholders have been contacted:Portici School Parents Representatives and Communality School Managers, “Assoutenti” (AU), “Environmental Guards” (EG), “Ambiente salute vesuvio” (ASV), “Più Orti in Città”, POC and thegroup of MONICA Crowdfunding Project.Starting from Dec, 2017, a group of 45 italian citizens, actively participating in the MONICA Crowdfunding campaign, have been provided with a mobile analyser for 1 month acceptability andfunctionality tests. Brief accompaining training videos have been prepared for instructional purposes. The data recorded have been collected along with user responses to a questionnairehelping to understand their priorities and preferred targets, engagement and experiences as well as the limits of the provided tools (e.g. weight, portability, APP GUI friendliness, perceivedaccuracy) impacting on technological design and user engagement project strategy. In particular, the target pollutants that were self-perceived as most significant were NO2 and PM2.5.Stakeholders have been consulted in several informal meeting in which their willingness to participate in structured monitoring campaign have been assessed along with their focus,perception of AQ (Questionnaire), and the compatibility of their assets (Environmental Guards) with mobile monitoring tools.All the stakeholders attended a restricted access meeting (ENEA, 03/2018) in which a first version of the project have been presented collecting their feedback for the fine tuning of publicengagement strategy. Summarizing a significant group of citizens has been involved for functional and acceptability assessment of pervasive, mobile monitoring and pollution concentration communication, localEnvironment-friendly Citizens associations have been consulted to provide input for monitoring engagement strategy, a wider group of local association have been consulted to provide inputfor general public engagement strategy definition.

C.2.4 Involvement of wider stakeholders in project implementation

C.3 Project objectives, results and outputs

C.3.1 Overall objectives and expected results (changes in the local situation)


15/82

PROJECT mainobjective(s)

Long term primary objectives of AIR-HERITAGE project is to improve the air quality level in Portici urban area and in relevant cities, in particular those for which there is an almost completelack of information about AQ, and how to reduce hotspots measured pollutant concentrations. The project will allow Targeted Wider citizens to reduce their exposure to air pollutants,ameliorating quality of life. Furthermore, AIR-HERITAGE aims to:1 .bridge the existing authoritativeness and communication gap between regulators and citizens by:.increasing Citizens engagement in air quality, ameliorating policies targeting behavioural change induced by enhanced awareness and availability of user-targeted information. .improving UAs capability of developing partecipated and efficient AQ issues remediation policies including smart mobility and green remediation through the integration of an advanced DSS- UIAQ DSS (Urban Innovative Air Quality Decision Support System) and automatic control of ITS. . involving Citizenship in AQ monitoring campaigns integrating their data in the DSS and hence in the policy making process.2. improve the resolution and personalization level of available AQ information especially for suburban cities by:. overcoming technological and validation barriers for indicative measurement systems and achieve their uptake by regulatory monitoring agencies (ARPAC)At technical level, AIR-HERITAGE will aim to:A: Integrating indicative measurements achieved trough validated low cost multisensors (both fixed and mobile)B. achieving a full integration between the domains of pervasive environmental monitoring and modelling, in order to improve the resolution and predictive capability of AQ DSSs specificallyregarding relationships between traffic and air pollution according to different environmental conditions.C. achieving a full integration between ground data based Air Quality modeling and ITS control for AQ issues mitigation.

PROJECT main result(s) Implementing AIR-HERITAGE project, we aim to obtain a change in the way the components of the City of Portici assess and react to air quality issues, reducing the distances and barriersamong them. In particular, AIR-HERITAGE success will impact on citizens mobility choices and policy engagement, UA policy decision making and technical AQ measuring, mapping,remediation design and implementation capabilities. These will define a new level of social cohesion for fighting environmental threats. Citizenship, Regulatory Monitoring Agencies,Research centers and Economical actors will enhance their support and engagement in AQ knowledge building, Policy making and implementation. Most of the results are transferable tocities that are subjected to the same forces at political, environmental, social, technical level. These concepts can be summarized in the following Main results lists reflecting both quantitativeand qualitative results, respectively:Achieved permanent, pervasive and continuous air quality monitoring capability by Portici UA;Improved Air Quality levels in selected hotspots of Portici territory (e.g. main crossroads);Improved density of the AQ regulatory monitoring network with integrated low cost solid state analyzers;Improved resolution of Air Quality mapping tools (civic no. level resolution);Increased use of AQ friendly mobility tools (e-bike, pedibus);Reduced emissions by reduced car traffic;Achieved participation in air quality monitoring and related decision making;Reduced personal exposure to air pollutants for monitoring citizens by informed decision based on exposure reports (APP);andImproved Awareness on Air quality in small cities at street scale;Increased perception of impacts of mobility choices;Improved adoption of factual evidences (measured data, predictive models) in the development of amelioration policies;Improved perception of AQ policies.

C.3.3 Measurement of results


16/82

Measurement of results Air quality improvement in Portici’s urban area should be measured through two types of indicators:1. Action implementation2. Air quality effectThe first is directly linked to action forecasted by the project (e.g.):- Number of schools reached by Pedibus initiatives and % in Portici municipality, number of children involved in 0 emission mobility with target respectively greater than 75% and 60%- Number of e-bikes made available to citizens, number of subscriptions (subscription target: 100)These implementation actions through the DSS are evaluated in terms of emissions reduction and consequently through the traffic model in terms of air pollutants concentrations.The second level of indicators is the effect on the air quality and citizens exposure and it is computed directly through air quality stations (the one existing and the ones installed by the project)and through the mobile equipment. The indicators are the air quality concentration (mainly based on legislative parameters):-NO2 yearly average-PM10 yearly average -PM10 daily maximum average 90.4° percentile -PM2.5 yearly average-CO 8 hours daily maximum average 90.4° percentile-O3 8 hours daily maximum average 90.4° percentileThe target is to reduce by 20% current air pollutant concentration indicators values (with respect to 2017 or base case, see next paragraph).This target is reinforced (reduction of 30%) for the exposure on Pedibus “paths” because the project is particularly focused on school and pedestrian trails. These indicators are computed asthe average of concentrations experienced by voluntary involved in Pedibus initiative along the trails.Indicators may change during the project lifetime to better reflect actual situation and amelioration processes because of the learning loop that will be iterated to yearly reviews.

C.3.4 Methodology for monitoring and measurement of outputs and results

Methodology formonitoring andmeasurement of ouputsand results

The two level indicators (degree of interventions implementation and air quality/exposure effects improvements) will be both included in the DSS platform, the first to estimate the emissionreduction and consequently the air quality effect through the air quality model. The collected measurements both form fixed and mobile air quality stations will be used to validate the modelapproach in order to use it to estimate the effect of the actions foreseen in the project and consequently to demonstrate that the change in the air quality (measured by the air quality stations)is directly attributable to its effectiveness.The DSS model approach will support the elimination/reduction of the confounding effect of the external factors (e.g. meteorology which is fundamental in determining air qualityconcentration) and this will be obtained defining a “reference year” with representative climate on which the validated emission reduction will be compared respect the “ante project“ situation.This “reference meteorology” monitoring will be automatically performed in the system (after air quality measurements validation and eventual assimilation) for air quality concentrationsparameters discussed in the previous paragraph.In the case of Pedibus or e-bike path pollutant exposure, the comparison (ex-ante and ex-post project effectiveness) will be performed by the DSS platform comparing similar period in termsof seasonality, atmospheric turbulence and stability.

C.3.5 Target groups

Target Groups The specific nature of the problem of air pollution originates mainly from widespread sources (vehicular traffic, domestic heating systems) and, due to the multi-point approach adopted toface the challenge, has required considering all citizens as recipients of initiatives of active involvement in the pursuit of the objectives of the project. Nonetheless, target groups have beenidentified that will more directly benefit from the outputs and results of the project for the specific activities envisaged and in particular:- families: 2,000 (about 10% of the total), will be mainly involved in information, animation and awareness raising activities, active citizenship, citizen science, etc., expected above all in WP7and WP3;- school world: 1,000 (about 10% of the total), will be mainly involved in environmental education activities and good practice implementation mainly planned in WP7 and WP3;- economic operators: 300 (around 10% of the total), will be mainly involved in information, animation and awareness raising activities, active citizenship, citizen science, etc., expected aboveall in WP7 and WP3;- associations: 10 (about 30% of the total), will be mainly involved in the activities of information, animation and awareness, active citizenship, citizen science, etc., expected above all in WP7and WP3;- institutions: 15 (about 30% of the total), will be mainly involved in the activities of information, animation and awareness, active citizenship, citizen science, DSS, expected mainly in WP7,WP3, WP4, WP5, WP6.

C.4 Project Project scaling up and transferability

C.4.1 Scaling up of the project

Scaling up of the project The project will be developed in the urban area of Portici of 4,52 km², a relatively small area, but among the highest (ranked second) densely populated cities in Italy. Considering suchcharacteristics, a successful outcome from the project, in terms of increased management of the traffic congestion and mitigation of related air pollution problems, will represent a significantdemonstrative case for many other towns.The environmental monitoring and sustainable mobility modelling approaches, merging into a combined DSS by IoT technologies (UIAQ DSS - Urban Innovative Air Quality Decision SupportSystem), represent the first example in Italy of air quality and traffic control applied together in an integrated system.The novel tool will be potentially applicable to any urban area, provided this will be infrastructured by the proper monitoring sensors network. This is technically feasible, because theadvanced tools available nowadays by IoT technologies make possible the cloud connection between models and physical providers of monitoring data. Scaling up to other sites will require3 full-time staff units in 12/18 months depending on the new area.The size of the demonstrative area is such to be representative for other urban areas not necessarily of the same size, but also larger than Portici. Such scaling-up can be easilyimplemented given the high flexibility of the DSS design. Both models and integrated system will be implemented by a totally modular modelling philosophy, allowing the plug-in and -out ofsub-models and of the different inputs. In practice, the same DSS will be able to produce outputs of a different area simply receiving different inputs from monitoring sensors located in otherareas. Real time information for citizens on air quality represents another project output which can be easily scaled-up to different metropolitan areas. It will be an implicit outcome of any extensionof the monitoring network and area of application of the models.

C.4.2 Transferability of the project: evidence of demand for your project in other cities

Transferability of theproject: evidence ofdemand for your projectin other cities

The proposed solution tackles the problem of the too low spatial resolution of air quality regulatory monitoring networks to assess citizens groups exposure, particularly in small cities: thisissue is common to different areas of Europe. Our project can be transferred and replicated by other Urban Authorities in different local context because it has been thought by this approachand all its parts will be developed according to this idea: to replicate the project, locally urban authorities should have to implement a new network of both fixed and mobile monitoringstations; the modeling solutions will only have to be re-calibrated and the IT infrastructure will easily adapt to the new configuration. Furthermore, a broad set of policies will be developed soas to be able to use it as a default in other contexts and the whole experience in communication with citizens will be put to good use in the new local context.In the implementation of the DSS tools the utilized methodologies will be developed and designed so that they can be applied in different spatial environments.In SHERPA-City, the starting point for the development of the integrated DSS, the traffic data of the road graph of all European cities, the average distance for the divided vehicle categories,are already present in the tool and completely available and usable, according to the COPERT categories and the emissive factors of the main pollutants in the atmosphere. The tool cantherefore be replicated in any urban context.From a strictly IT point of view, DSS tool will be implemented using open-source technologies in order to minimize costs both of implementation and maintenance of the system itself and inorder to facilitate the application of the tool in different EU contexts.To facilitate the dissemination and application of the project in other contexts, a series of public workshops can be organized and part of the results of the communication can be used

Summary The main objective of this WP, led by the CdP but highly supported by all partners, is to set up an effective management framework for the partnership, to guarantee the correct progressof the project towards its objectives with the highest quality and within budget and scheduled timescales. Besides the contractual administrative tasks, great attention will be paid todefine and activate an efficient communication strategy both among the partners, in order to timely implement all the project activities and with the group of stakeholders. Beyond specificsocial/web channels dedicated to the local community, bi-monthly meetings will be organized to improve the actual data collection and to share and discuss the project outcomes. Thisapproach can ensure the most efficient and accurate project monitoring and will offer a great benefit to the capitalization activities . At the same time, such a close “top-down/bottom-up”project monitoring will help to set-up a risk and quality assessment of the on-going activities.This is essential to minimize risks related to the scientific and technological implementationof the project and to a poor local community endorsement whose active role is vital for the successful finalization of Air-Heritage that strongly relies on citizens cultural and operativeactivity. Moreover for their specific role in this Call, special activities will be devoted to implement the Initiation Phase and of the Project Capitalisation.

A 2.4Risk and Quality Management

The CdP PM and the SG have a pro-active role in the risk management. Thanks to the internalcommunication channels, PM carefully follows the project progress tracking potential risks (technical,financial or human). As a consequence, in case of problems/conflicts, the coordinator should be ableto alert the SG to propose a “rescue” plan. Quality Management for this PPs will be mainly devoted toassure the highest scientific levels in the activities of on field air quality monitoring and modelling. Thismeans to be able to transfer a scientific methodology also to the level of common citizens. Specificmeetings with the stakeholders, but also with other local communities, even on specific demand, willbe organized in this respect.

Responsible Partner PP 4 - Legambiente Campania Onlus [LAC]


Summary The communication aims to sensitize citizens, such as families, schools, economic operators, associations, institutions, with regard to air quality issues promoting values, actions andindividual and/or group behaviors useful for its improvement (the communicative efficacy, as well as being measured with our own tools - mailing list, feedback on social media, etc. -will also be inferred through the sociological behavioral survey carried out in the context of WP7).This Wp pursues in particular the objectives of cognitive change, to create awareness and knowledge of sources of pollution, aimed at all target recipients; change of action, toencourage specific actions (purchase of vehicles and ecological boilers) to reduce pollution, especially for families and economic operators; behavioral change, to encourage theabandonment of harmful habits (eg car use for short trips) in favor of virtuous habits and to maintain the new behavior patterns, aimed mainly at families, economic operators; change ofvalues, to change values and opinions rooted for example to the disqualifying use of ecological means (bike vs status symbol "car"), aimed especially at the world of school.These objectives will be pursued by leveraging the emotional sphere and the individual and / or social psychological processes of the target groups. Factual da inputs, recorded andprocessed in WP7, processed in WP3/5 and integrated in Wp6, respectively, will be collected with support from all partners.

Communication objective Create awareness and knowledge of sources of pollution, encourage specific actions to reduce pollution, encourage the abandonment of harmful habits in favor of virtuous habits andmaintain new patterns of behavior, change values and opinions rooted for example to the disqualifying use of ecological means, leveraging the emotional sphere and the individual and /or social psychological processes of the target groups.

Target groups The different means of communication will allow reaching:1. a significant part of the local population, considering the main target groups:- families: 2,000 (about 10% of the total)- school world: 1,000 (about 10% of the total)- economic operators: 300 (around 10% of the total)- associations: 10 (about 30% of the total)- institutions: 15 (about 30% of the total)2. the territorial, national and community level.

Title Pervasive Air Quality Monitoring


End Date 31/10/2021

Budget 885,184.10


Responsible Partner PP 2 - Italian National Agency for New Technologies, Energy and Sustainable Economic Development [ENEA]


Summary WP4 is devoted to the design, implementation, deployment and operation of a network of pervasive/mobile AQ monitoring devices and its associated SW infrastructure. Specifically, thenetwork will include ENEA mobile/pervasive monitors and commercial fixed solid state based (i.e. Electrochemical sensors) air quality monitors. Scalable calibration techniques basedon validated machine learning techniques using controlled environment recorded data and co-located field recorded data will be developed. Calibration algorithm will be implementedfor on board execution by mobile nodes. Lab recorded data will be used to address the “locality” effect of field calibrations and used whenever a concept drift is detected. An onlinerecalibration scheme based on higher accuracy fixed stations data will be employed for partially addressing long term drift issues. Sensor fusion algorithm capable of dealing withdifferent accuracy data produced by mobile, fixed and regulatory monitoring stations will be implemented for obtaining high resolution “sensor level” maps and to feed geostatisticsmodelling and DSS support tool (UIAQ DSS- Urban Innovative Air Quality Decision Support System) [ref.: WP5, WP6]. Smartphone app for local and targeted feedback to monitoringcitizens [ref.: WP6] will be developed along with ad-hoc air quality index. Scalable sensors cloud infrastructure will be implemented for AQ monitor data inception, processing andvisualization.

Summary WP5 is devoted to model the traffic and air quality to implement a decision support system (DSS) aimed to set a ITS (Intelligent Transportation Systems) of Portici urban area integratinga traffic and a wind model that will be assembled within the DSS (WP6).The traffic model will assess the network condition (traffic congestion) within the most critical area of the Portici Municipality (“red zone”).The inputs of the model (vehicles speed and density) will be synergetically estimated through chemical and weather (Wp4) and traffic sensors, specifically positioned within the “redzone”.Ad hoc studies will be carried out (ex-ante and ex-post) to calibrate and validate the model for the study area. A wind model will be implemented to simulate the effect of surface“roughness” and road orientations on air movement, at different height, according to different levels of geostrophic winds. The outputs of both models will be integrated in the AQ modelto produce real-time pollution maps that will be input for the ITS, thus providing traffic control through regulation of vehicle access to the congested and/or polluted areas. A schematicrepresentation of the WP is provided in Figure 6. Another application of the models will be the simulation of potential scenarios of traffic/air pollution for different applications: testingtraffic management, pollution mitigation policies, citizen awareness building and education.

A 5.1 Traffic model and wind model

The first phase will consist of planning of traffic sensor distribution and field sampling of traffic flows.At the same time a GIS analysis will be performed to produce input maps of Portici urban area andtuning the DEM. The traffic model will be implemented following the methodology of the MacroscopicFundamental Diagram (MFD). Calibration of the traffic and wind models will consist in a “training”phase with data provided by the monitoring network including traffic sensors and weather stations.[UNINA with CdP+ ARPAC support]

Summary The proposed web-based application UIAQ DSS (Urban Innovative Air Quality Decision Support system) is a web tool to be integrated in Geographical Information System of CdP thatallows urban city planners and municipality agencies to assess air quality in urban areas and predict short-term response as well as evaluate impact of potential policies for AQconditions remediation. Moreover, a specific mobile app will help authorities to communicate urban strategies adopted and air quality forecast to the city inhabitants. This would provideefficient public information with smart tool and help preventing pollution peak exposition for “sensitive” citizens (e.g. children…) providing them the spatial and temporal variation of airquality both on the base of their position (through GPS).The starting point for UIAQ DSS implementation is SHERPA-City web-tool designed by JRC’s (Joint Research Center) Air and Climate Unit and being developed by TerrAria srl undercontract JRC/IPR/2017/C.5/0012/NC, however the platform will be completely updated and adapted so that it can be applied for the first time in an urban context and that it could alsomaintain its replicability.The proposed new UIAQ DSS is able to integrate (see figure 7):• AQ data from Pervasive Air Quality Monitoring (WP4)• Modeling and DSS design (WP5)• Active Citizenship for Air Quality (WP7)• CAMS -Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service- products as background concentrations• Citizens’ App

A 6.1 Requirements and design

The collection of requirements will be based on the needs highlighted by CdP and the variousstakeholders involved in the project. In the definition of the requirements also the other project partnerswill be actively involved to understand how the IT platform can interface effectively with the modelsproduced by UNINA, the data obtained by ENEA and the policies developed by CdP and Legambiente.Based on the requirements and starting from the structure of SHERPA-City (web-tool developed by TAfor JRC) the UIAQ DSS new architecture will be designed. Also, during the design phase, thereplicability of the software will be taken into account as required. This activity also concerns with thedesign of the Mobile App.

Summary WP7 is devoted to link citizens’ participation and awareness to activities of monitoring, behavioural change, policy involvement and implementation. Specifically, Wp7 will start with asocial analysis based on structured interviews to investigate personal choices and behaviors that influence air quality. Social and educational activities will be organized to increaseawareness, share and implement good practices, and a contact point for citizens will be created. Social activities will be structured as focuses/workshops, meetings and experientialevents lincluding city walks, demonstrational city ebikes rides, “pedibus”, eco-festivals, demonstrational events in buildings (monitoring and evaluation of energy efficiency), actions ofgroup gardening and promotion of balcony gardens, in places of aggregation as schools, parishes, social centers, involving citizens, shopkeeper associations, employer organization,agricultural associations, etc. Through Stakeholders, Legambiente Campania will also involve and recruit volunteers to be trained for the monitoring campaign to conduce usingpersonal portable analyzers to collect data on air pollution [ref.: WP4] for specific policy implementation and review [ref.: WP6]. Educational activities will be specifically devoted to createawareness about the role of citizen science, to inform students about environmental alterations caused by air pollution (i.e. through the LBI method) and the impacts of personal choiceson air quality.

Responsible Partner PP 1 - Portici Municipal Authority [CdP]


Summary This WP will take care of the administrative closure of the project with the preparation of the 3rd Progress Report and the last Financial Claim, expected to be submitted within 3 monthsby the end of the implementation phase (see also WP2-Project Management). AirHeritage is a very innovative project since, apart from the solution of the specific problem addressed (AirQuality) it relies on the active citizens involvement to face a kind of a problem that is normally considered as only manageable using “top-down” approaches (using for instance,approaches of traffic limitation and of change in the mobility type). The Knowledge Transfer phase will therefore mainly consist in a number of meetings with the stakeholders tounderstand if the type of practice introduced with AirHeritage has been fruitful to solve the problem addressed, discussing, also with the help of the other PPs involved, the main resultsobserved in terms of Air Quality. At the same time it will be also discussed if the practice adopted can be eventually extended to face other problems and, finally, how the localgovernment and EU policies could be better involved to support the action of this type of initiatives. At least two of these meetings are expected to be also partecipated by UIA expertsand/or staff from the PS. Lessons learned will be also discussed at national or even international level, in meetings specially focused on the problems faced by AirHeritage and/or on thepractices put in place.

Part G - Risk Management

Description of the risk Properties Actions to mitigate the risk

ENEA Mobile AQ sensors (MONICA) do not work as expected in terms ofvalidated accuracy.

Impact Serious

Likelihood Improbable

ENEA will mitigate the problem by increasing the number of fixed AQ monitoringstations to increase data collection;

Citizens (or Shopkeepers) oppose to the diffusion of AQ monitoring stations(mobile and/or fixed) and their data for privacy reasons.

Impact Minor

Likelihood Remote

PPs with the support of the UA will organize meetings to discuss the project aimand implementation. Citizens will be more actively involved in theimplementation phase. Data anonimization will be guaranteed beforepublicization and open access implementation.

Extreme weather conditions or acts of vandalism cause serious damages toproject installations (fixed AQ stations, bikes, remediation greenery).

Impact Major

Likelihood Possible

Specific purchase conditions will be agreed to have installations repaired orreplaced in order the project to be finalized as expected. A specific surveillanceactivity on the project installations has been already considered as part ofproject activities and will be, possibly, improved.
