Emission inventories are useful tools in air quality management policies. In the framework of Apulia Region (South of Italy) inventory, the Territorial Emission Cadastre (CET) was developed. CET stores the huge amount of data concerning industrial plants. In order to easily interact with input data and analyze them, a graphical user interface that includes a GIS (Geographical Information System) component was integrated (CETGIS). This paper focuses on the development of CETGIS and analysis possibilities provided by GIS technology, which allow decision makers to monitor the state of air quality and to evaluate the targets to be achieved.

Abstract
Emission inventories are useful tools in air quality management policies. In the framework of Apulia Region (South of Italy) inventory, the Territorial Emission Cadastre (CET) was developed. CET stores the huge amount of data concerning industrial plants. In order to easily interact with input data and analyze them, a graphical user interface that includes a GIS (Geographical Information System) component was integrated (CETGIS). This paper focuses on the development of CETGIS and analysis possibilities provided by GIS technology, which allow decision makers to monitor the state of air quality and to evaluate the targets to be achieved.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
