The environmental impacts of road transport, in particular air pollution and noise, are receiving increasing attention in urban and regional planning, as they can not only predict vehicle movements but also provide detailed information on traffic volumes and speed distributions, which are indispensable for effective regulation, targeted interventions and health-conscious urban planning. This study presents an emission calculation module that can be integrated into traffic models and provides detailed estimates of pollutants emitted by road vehicles. The developed module builds on the COPERT methodology, which accounts not only for exhaust emissions such as CO2, NOx and PM, but also for non-exhaust emissions from brake wear, tyre wear, road abrasion and evaporation. The presented system has an open architecture, enabling further customisation, particularly when local measured data are available. This contributes to building a stronger, data-driven link between transport planning and environmental protection.
