Cover Story: Policy decisions aiming to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in the transportation sector require traffic emission assessments. However, estimations of traffic emissions are complex and often lack transferability in time and space as they rely on huge amounts of traffic data whose availability is limited. An approach entirely based on open data offers an alternative. GHG emissions from individual motor traffic are thereby based on a combination of the estimated traffic volume with respective emission factors. The approach captured the traffic pattern of Berlin quite well and can be transferred to other study areas within Germany with little additional effort. View this paper
