Remote Sensing (RS) is the key word for measuring exhaust gas in the flowing traffic (roadside exhaust gas evaluation). The Remote Sensing-Device (RSD) consists of four parts: the Transmitter/ Receiver device, the Reflecting Mirror, Speed/Acceleration device and a Camera. The RSD has to be positioned at a location that has to fulfil some special characteristics. Is the measuring set-up correctly installed, it is possible to measure the exhaust emissions of passing vehicles via spectral analysis. The RS exhaust gas evaluation allows an estimation of gas values measured by stationary emission testers.
