The LAEI 2016 has been superseded. Click here for the full list of releases. Emissions estimates of key pollutants (NOx, PM10, PM2.5 and CO2) by source type are included for the base year 2016. Emissions for previous years 2010 and 2013 have also been recalculated, using the latest data sources (emission factors, activity data, ...) and methodology.Emissions projected forward to 2020, 2025, and 2030 will be available soon.The area covered by the LAEI includes Greater London (the 32 London boroughs and the City of London), as well as areas outside Greater London up to the M25 motorway.These emissions have been used to estimate ground level concentrations of key pollutants NOx, NO2, PM10 and PM2.5 across Greater London for year 2016, using an atmospheric dispersion model. Air pollutant concentration maps and associated datasets are available for download.Due to the size of the LAEI database, datasets have been zipped and need to be downloaded in several parts. UPDATE 03/07/19 - The concentration maps and associated data (including population and school exposure data) have been reissued following a minor issue with the previous dataset.

Includes GIS files in ESRI format to visualise the concentrations in a GIS software (ArcGIS). Population Exposure This dataset includes estimations of the number of Londoners and number of schools in London exposed to an annual average NO2 concentration above the Air Quality Strategy objective of 40µg/m3, based on the modelled 2016 ground level concentrations. A comparison with previous 2013 concentrations modelled for the LAEI 2013 inventory is also provided. NO2 Population Exposure (.XLSX - 25KB) NO2 and PM2.5 School Exposure (.XLSX - 269KB)
