UrbanAIR

The UrbanAIR Project is an initiative funded by the European Union (under Grant Agreement number 101188131) dedicated to transforming how cities respond to the dual challenges of air pollution and urban heat. By leveraging cutting-edge technology—including Digital Twins, AI-driven modelling, and advanced data fusion—UrbanAIR empowers local authorities to make data-backed decisions that protect public health and enhance urban sustainability. 

The project focuses on creating high-resolution "digital replicas" of cities like Barcelona and Antwerp. These models allow researchers to predict air quality using supercomputing, identify urban heat islands, and test virtual interventions before they are implemented in the real world. This work provides city planners and policymakers with the essential tools needed to create cleaner, cooler, and more resilient urban environments.
