APHEIS (1999 2003)
  • project aimed to create an epidemiological
    surveillance system of effects of air pollution
    (SO2, NO2, O3 and PM) on health
  • due to money constraints reduced to particulate
    matter (TSP, BS, PM10/PM2.5)
  • network of environment and public-health
    professionals (16 centres totalling 26 cities in
    12 European countries)

  • APHEIS-3 Health Impact Assessments Use of PM
    data
  • WHO/ECEH software AirQ 2.0 (2003) requires data
    over one calendar year
  • PM10/PM2.5 data (24h mean values) and
    data of health effects

APHEIS vs. AirBase SummaryHIA-relevant PM10
stations used in APHEIS 84 - stations not
included in AirBase (26) 22 stations
in AirBase 62- stat. incl., but no
PM10 data available 14 stations with
PM10 data (general) 48 APHEIS stations
with PM10 data in AirBase 24for the resp.
calendar year 2000/01/02 (29)

Conclusion
  • APHEIS successfully built up an epidemiolog.
    surveillance network to assess health impacts of
    PM in 26 European cities (PM10 21 cities)
  • Because at the moment AirBase provides only 30
    of PM10 data (24h mean values) of selected
    HIA-relevant APHEIS stations (n84),epidemiol.
    projects, such APHEIS, still need to compile AP
    data directly from respective AQ networks for HIA
    calculations.
