USAGE OF INFORMATIONAL TECHNOLOGIES FOR SOLUTION OF HYGIENIC CHALLENGES IN THE AREA OF ATMOSPHERIC AIR

Abstract

Implementation of probabilistic evaluations of atmospheric air pollution impact on health of the population and information-analytical system usage for hygienic assessment of atmospheric air quality becomes the basis for scientific substantiation provision, system and complex approach to the solution of atmospheric air protection challenges. Application of information-analytical system for collecting and keeping of information (geocoding of stationary sources, meteofiles preparation, inputting of digitized data about reliefs, determination of distance to locations of dwelling and social objects) allows to conduct evaluation of risk for health of the population from pollution of atmospheric air at local level, to determine the lists of “priority-driven” pollutants, which are subject of regulation in the specific region under consideration at determination of the so called “hot spots” taking into consideration the emissions’ toxicity and territorial peculiarities of pollution.
