Augmented emission maps: the base maps, cold start and deterioration parameters are merged in a single text file

In order to enable the sharing of data the emission data for vehicles is standardized. The data exchange format contains all data that is applicable for a specific engine taxonomy code.

The uploaded maps are the fallback maps for petrol for emissions class Euro 3-5 and diesel with emission class Euro 4-5. Incomplete AEM fallback maps are not uploaded.

The standardized emission map has a “.map.txt” extension and is also human readable. The files  starts with metadata which contains information about:

the engine taxonomy code,

total driven kilometers over which the data was gathered,

total time in hours over which the data was gathered,

the number of vehicles which were tested to create the emission map,

the DOI (Digital Object Identifier) reference,

Which emission maps are available in the file.

The DOI 10.5281/zenodo refers to a meta-data document that provides the full description of the standardized emission map.
