Abstract:
Pollution from urban transport has a big impact on community health. Environmental organizations in different countries of the world have installed sensor devices of air pollutants in different parts of their cities for informing the air pollution and its necessary and timely warnings and these devices record pollutants data in 24 hours of everyday. Today, these data are presented on large display boards installed in the important places of big cities. In this research, the results of pollutant data are presented visually on Tabriz map by GIS that it is better than statistical presentation.
