Forecasting the air quality in Hong Kong

PRAISE-HK app image

CERC were partners in the ground-breaking 5-year Personalised Real-time Air quality Information System for Exposure – Hong Kong (PRAISE-HK) project to develop a real-time, regional-to-local scale air quality forecasting system for Hong Kong.

The PRAISE-HK app provides GPS-based personal exposure information down to individual street level.

The system uses MAQS, with ADMS-Urban coupled to CMAQ, with AI used to calibrate the model output in line with available air pollution measurement information. Details of the system can be found in this brochure.

This smart city project was led by the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) with contributions from a number of other Hong Kong partners and CERC. The project was funded by the HSBC 150th anniversary charity programme.
