Thetis has developed an intelligent system for reducing air pollution in Beijing
ITS - TAP is the Intelligent Transport System - Traffic Air Pollution monitoring system project the municipality of Beijing has entrusted to a consortium of Italian companies comprising THETIS, FATA DTS, ATAC and ECOTEMA and is a cutting-edge venture. It has taken its lead from the Kyoto protocol and Italian-Chinese cooperation directed at limiting the emission of pollutants. Thetis, the leading company in the consortium, is acting in partnership with the Environment Protection Bureau and Beijing Public Transport Corporation in Beijing. The aim of the project is to set up an integrated air monitoring system which, when it registers levels of pollution which exceed the limits permitted, will send this information to the traffic management authorities. Said authorities would then take action to limit traffic and increase the public transportation services, also acting on the other subsystems.
The system comprises:
a network of air quality monitoring stations;
a network of traffic monitoring stations;
an AVM system for managing the 200 BPTC vehicles;
a data centre for data processing.
