Remote sensing of vehicle emissions - Final meeting of CARES project in Dresden

Dresden becomes the European center for remote emission measurements – for two days. We are partners in the EU project CARES that is developing state-of-art remote vehicle emission measurement techniques. The project has been running since 2019 and has demonstrated the usefulness of cross-road remote sensing, plume chasing and new point sampling techniques. We have developed new research tools and determined real-world emissions in Milan, Krakow and Prague. For further application we can now offer to authorities reliable tools for high-emitter detection and vehicle emission measurements. TUD will continue working on the analysis of the collected data and feed results into the vehicle emission modelling to contribute towards a cleaner road transport.
