A pilot web-based system for environmental health impact assessment of air pollution

Abstract

This paper presents an on-line pilot system for environmental health impact assessment of air pollution with the support of georeferenced relational databases collection for disseminating information to a wide range of users with the view to enabling them to make appropriate decisions. This tool integrates modern technologies for processing, computing, and information dissemination such as automatic acquisition, web crawling, relational databases and Geographic Information System (GIS).
