CityAQVis: Integrated ML-Visualization Sandbox Tool for Pollutant Estimation in Urban Regions Using Multi-Source Data (Software Article)
- 融合卫星、气象、人口等数据,用机器学习预测地面污染物浓度。
- 可对比不同城市场景的污染分布,支持氮氧化物等多类污染物预测。
- 交互式界面让非技术用户也能直观分析污染动态,适合环保与城市规划者。
城市空气污染对公共健康、环境可持续性和政策制定构成重大威胁。有效的空气质量治理需要能整合多种数据并可视化复杂时空污染模式的预测工具。当前缺乏集预测与可视化于一体的交互式工具。本文提出 CityAQVis,一个基于机器学习的交互式沙盒工具,利用卫星观测、气象参数、人口密度、高程和夜间灯光等多源数据,预测地表污染物浓度。不同于传统可视化工具仅展示历史数据,CityAQVis 支持用户构建并比较预测模型,实时可视化输出结果,揭示地表污染动态。通过在大城市区域预测氮氧化物(NO2)的案例研究,验证了该工具对多种污染物的适应性。其直观的图形用户界面(GUI)支持用户对比两个不同城市情景下的地表污染物空间分布。结果表明,机器学习驱动的可视化分析可显著提升态势感知能力,助力数据驱动的空气质量决策。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Urban air pollution poses significant risks to public health, environmental sustainability, and policy planning. Effective air quality management requires predictive tools that can integrate diverse datasets and communicate complex spatial and temporal pollution patterns. There is a gap in interactive tools with seamless integration of forecasting and visualization of spatial distributions of air pollutant concentrations. We present CityAQVis, an interactive machine learning ML sandbox tool designed to predict and visualize pollutant concentrations at the ground level using multi-source data, which includes satellite observations, meteorological parameters, population density, elevation, and nighttime lights. While traditional air quality visualization tools often lack forecasting capabilities, CityAQVis enables users to build and compare predictive models, visualizing the model outputs and offering insights into pollution dynamics at the ground level. The pilot implementation of the tool is tested through case studies predicting nitrogen dioxide (NO2) concentrations in metropolitan regions, highlighting its adaptability to various pollutants. Through an intuitive graphical user interface (GUI), the user can perform comparative visualizations of the spatial distribution of surface-level pollutant concentration in two different urban scenarios. Our results highlight the potential of ML-driven visual analytics to improve situational awareness and support data-driven decision-making in air quality management.
