A TRUE study of real-world emissions has begun in Mexico City, marking the first TRUE Latin America remote sensing campaign. The testing and analysis, led by the ICCT and supported by FIA Foundation, is being performed in collaboration with Mexico City SecretarÃa del Medio Ambiente (SEDEMA). Remote sensing measurements of exhaust emissions will be collected at several locations across the metropolitan area. These data will provide detailed insight into in-use emissions of the Mexico City fleet and help inform policies to improve air quality and reduce health impacts.
