Abstract
The air pollution problem has received more attention during the last decades whereby there has been a significant increase in public awareness of the potential dangers caused by chemical pollutants and their effects on both human beings and the environment. The purpose of this paper is to present an overview of the existing literature about air pollution assessment and evaluation for earlier and current methods. These methods include; mathematical models simulation modelling and simulation software. The basic technology for predicting the impact of air pollution is through the use of a variety of mathematical models. Even though these mathematical models have many advantages they are not easy to use and difficult for non-experienced users to perform calculations on these complex models. Obviously to evaluate the impact from air pollution using complex models the best way is by simulating the mathematical models through computer techniques. Furthermore the integration of Geographic Information Systems GIS and simulation models combined with suitable databases and expert systems within a common and interactive Graphical User Interface GUI should make for more powerful and easy to use -and understand -risk information systems.
