Hawa Dawa baut ein Messnetz für die deutsche Autobahn
Auf dem diesjährigen ITS World Congress in Hamburg, Deutschland, hat Hawa Dawa weitere Details über ihre Partnerschaft mit der deutschen Autobahn für die Installation und den Betrieb eines Messnetzes bekannt gegeben.
Die Partnerschaft wurde Anfang Oktober gegründet. Das Netzwerk von Hawa Dawa, einem Münchner Cleantech-Unternehmen, wird auf einem Abschnitt der Autobahn A5 Umwelt- und Wetterdaten nahezu in Echtzeit sammeln und analysieren. Die Daten werden auf einem Dashboard zur Verfügung gestellt, sowie über eine Schnittstelle zur direkten Einbindung in das Streckenleitsystem.

The measured emissions of NO2, PM2.5 and PM10, as well as relevant weather data, serve as a basis for reducing the environmental impact of motorway traffic while optimally maintaining traffic flow. The project uses simulation and measures environmental effects in high temporal and spatial resolution. These real-time measurements are used to improve the control scenarios.
Hawa Dawa will set up a dense measurement network that measures emissions using the proprietary measurement method certified by TÜV Süd, and collects relevant weather data (air pressure, temperature, humidity, wind speed and wind direction). The system will thus also be able to level out weather-related influences on air quality.
Frank Felten, chief product officer of Hawa Dawa, explains more, “In Germany, route control systems are an essential part of the traffic infrastructure on motorways. We are curious to see to what extent we can help improve existing management strategies in the sense of an environmentally sensitive control on motorways by integrating actual pollutant values and considering significant weather-related influencing factors. As we see in some of our urban installations, there is considerable potential for improving the urban quality of life, especially in the conurbations.”
Hawa Dawa is currently attending ITS World Congress in Hamburg, Germany, which runs until tomorrow (October 15). Interested attendees can find the company in the !TS Startup Area in Hall B3, booth number 36, or they can attend the company’s presentation on Friday, October 15 in the session, BP13: Managing the Streets. Frank Felten, chief product officer of Hawa Dawa, will present on the topic, “Are you still measuring or already managing? Why urban air quality is becoming the subject of active management.”
