Mobilair Project

MOBILAIR focuses on climate justice in the city of Thessaloniki and considers Air Quality management and sustainable Urban Mobility. It is led by the Hellenic Institute of Transport (CERTH/HIT) in partnership with AUTH (represented by two teams: LAP‐AUTH and EIRG‐AUTH) and it is supported by the Municipality of Thessaloniki. MOBILAIR evaluates potential user-centric, data-driven Air Quality management measures, aiming to influence travelers’ behavior towards environmentally friendly Urban Mobility choices. The main project’s outcome is an AI behavioural understanding mobile application. Pollution concentrations and traffic profiles will be compared and correlated, and specific thresholds will be extracted for triggering of potential measures, which will be promoted to and evaluated by the public through an AI‐powered behavioral understanding mobile app, which has a two‐fold objective: • Raise awareness (digital campaigning), • Optimize the adoptability of measures, promoting greener travel habits, by appraise their attractiveness through a pilot user pool. MOBILAIR exploits Meteorological/air quality observations, Traffic-mobility data from Smart Mobility Living Lab (official member of ENoLL), Transport data - Google Environmental Insights Explorer and Pollution concentrations - Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring System (CAMS). MOBILAIR provides a comprehensive understanding of the user adoption of measures under different environmental conditions, and their impact on the overall AQ management.
