Description (excerpt):
Remote sensing is an important tool for monitoring the real-world vehicle emissions, and remote sensing data can be used to evaluate the effectiveness of emission control policies and identify emission defects and defeat devices. To complement its work on real-world emissions in Europe, TRUE has compiled remote sensing data from the states of Colorado and Virginia and the University of Denver to investigate the emissions of U.S. cars and trucks. The TRUE U.S. database includes nearly 60 million emissions records and is intended to support further research and the development of evidence-based emissions control policies in the United States.
