ABSTRACT

With the recent development of information and communication technology, there has been an increasing demand for the digitalization of environmental impact assessment report and the enhancement of information accessibility within these reports. In response, this study developed a system that automates the operation of the American Meteorological Society and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Regulatory Model (AERMOD), a key model used for air quality assessments, to support the digitalization of environmental impact assessments. The system is designed to automatically collect basic meteorological data and construct terrain data required for model operation. Additionally, it provides a web-based user interface for inputting emission sources and emission quantities. The consistency between the Linux-based and Windows-based model systems built to operate AERMOD was ensured through this system. This system is expected to produce standardized results during AERMOD modeling and serve as a foundation for the implementation of digital environmental impact assessments.
