Abstract

The integrated atmospheric pollution index (API) of St. Petersburg ranges from 6 to 14, while an API index of less than 5 is considered the norm. Each year, more than 260 thousand tons of pollutants are emitted into the atmosphere of the city. According to the proposed methodology of the Ministry of Transport of the Russian Federation for determining the mass emission of pollutants into the air by motor vehicles, the original data should be obtained with an automated television and computer complex using modern information technology, which is much cheaper and more efficient than the currently used methods. Studies show the great efficiency of the complex, both in terms of the speed of obtaining data for the analysis of atmospheric pollution and the sufficient accuracy of these results.
