The system supports the implementation of European and national environmental legislation such as the European Air Quality Framework Directive 2008/50/EC (replacing 96/62/EC) and Daughter Directives, 88/609/EEC on major point sources, 89/429/EEC and 89/369/EEC on incinerators or 90/313/EEC on public access to environmental information.</p> <p>AirWare supports intergrated data management and modeling tools for:<br> - Compliance monitoring, alerts and alarms, reporting;<br> - Nowcasts, forecasts and public information, 3G mobile client support;<br> - Scenario analysis and source apportionment, EIA and SEA studies;<br> - Multi-citeria emission control optimization, policy design.</p> <p>A tightly integrated system in distributed client-server implementation, open, modular architecture and a fully web-based user interface exploits the latest dynamic 3D models and network computing technologies, including high-performance distributed GRID and cluster implementations. The AirWare models can run within a real-time expert system framework, that coordinates data acquisition from a range of information resources, hourly now-cast model runs with data assimilation, regular e.g., daily forecast runs, using observed or simulated dynamic emissions and 3D dynamic meteorological models as pre-processors.</p> <ul> <a href="/AIRWARE/images.html"><font size="5">AirWare
