Digital Twins Enabled Indoor Air Quality Management for Healthy Living

TwinAIR旨在通过解决室内空气质量（IAQ）改善的挑战，通过理解其与外部因素的复杂相互关系来改善城市生活。这是通过引入一套新的工具来确定来源和追踪各种污染物和病原体，加强对其影响的了解并评估其对健康的影响，以减轻部分影响的方式控制建筑管理系统和服务，帮助公民更好地了解污染影响，同时鼓励更健康、更可持续的选择来实现的。TwinAIR在城市传感（化学和环境传感器）、数据分析和可视化（数字地图和实时视频分析）、智能建筑（数字双胞胎和虚拟传感器）和行为洞察（公民参与、游戏化）方面拥抱前沿创新，提供一个新兴的解决方案。它在欧洲六个不同的试验点（欧洲、欧洲、英国、欧洲东南部、德国、欧洲东部）实施，示范覆盖住宅、公共行政大楼、医院和学校，以及选定类型的车辆（公共汽车、货车）。TwinAIR的工具集将使学生及其家长、通勤者、工人和居民能够通过访问有洞察力的分析和引人入胜的可视化数据，以及通过参与教育活动和活动，对他们的日常出行选择和室内空间的使用做出更加健康的个人决定。同时，它将为交通规划者、设施管理人员和决策者提供丰富的证据，了解影响室内空气质量的因素以及减轻其对健康和福祉影响的有效干预措施。通过在传感器、数字孪生和视觉分析方面实现前沿创新的民主化，TwinAIR将有助于更好地制定未来的交通政策、建筑环境管理和激励市民。TwinAIR项目是欧洲室内空气质量和健康小组的一部分。

TwinAIR aims to improve urban life by tackling the challenge of indoor air quality (IAQ) improvement by understating its complex interrelationship with external factors. This is achieved by introducing a novel set of tools for identifying sources and tracing a variety of pollutants and pathogens, for enhancing understanding of their effects and assessing their impact on health, for controlling building management systems and services in ways that mitigate part of the impacts and for helping citizens to develop better insights into pollution impacts, along with encouraging healthier, more sustainable choices. TwinAIR embraces bleeding edge innovation in urban sensing (chemical and environmental sensors), data analytics and visualisation (digital maps and real-time video analysis), smart buildings (digital twins and virtual sensors) and behavioural insights (citizen participation, gamification) to deliver a nascent solution. It is implemented across six diverse pilot sites in Europe (ES, IE, UK, SE, DE, EL) with demonstrations covering residential dwellings, public administration buildings, hospitals and schools, along with selected types of vehicles (buses, vans). TwinAIR’s toolsets will empower students and their parents, commuters, workers and residents to make more health-aware personal decisions about their everyday mobility options and use of indoor spaces, through access to insightful analytics and engaging visualisations of their data, as well as by their participation in educational events and activities. At the same time, it will provide rich evidence to transport planners, facility managers and policymakers about factors influencing IAQ and effective interventions for mitigating its effects on health and well-being. By democratising cutting edge innovation in sensors, digital twinning and visual analytics, TwinAIR will enable better decision-making about future mobility policies, built environment management and incentivisation of citizens. Project TwinAIR is part of the European cluster on indoor air quality and health.
