Multiple departments of the Government of Catalonia and CIMNE are working on the development of a predictive tool to help in decision-making on land use planning and urban planning from the use of technologies for mass data capture to improve efficiency in city and territory planning. The main purpose is to train the competent public administrations in urban and territorial affairs to implement proactive public policies, with real-time knowledge of the dysfunctions in the achievement of their policies. It would therefore be a question of building a model that validates or questions (objectively) the level of implementation of planning strategies or public policies.This tool for territorial prediction will focus on the characterization and subsequent modeling of industrial estates, housing developments and housing in urban neighborhoods.

Challenge 3 of PIKSEL project aims to design objectives tools to help air quality managers in a given region to predict the incidence of episodes when tropospheric ozone immission concentration exceeds the legal concentration limits of ozone.
This tool is based on the use of data analysis models, based on Machine Learning (ML) techniques. The models developed are fed by the series of data from the Catalan Meteorological monitoring network (METEOCAT) and the Air Quality monitoring network (XVPCA) distributed throughout the territory of Catalonia. Moreover, a synoptic classification (of types of Synoptic maps) is being developed in this project from the reanalysis maps distributed by ERA 5, introducing thus the synoptic forcing in the developed models.
Based on these data, we are building the models to predict two parameters of special relevance at the time of monitoring risk levels for atmospheric pollution: the maximum hourly O3 and the 'maximum daily 8 h concentration. These models will be elaborated thorough all the relevant stations of air quality, and later the results will be extrapolated to the level of the whole of Catalonia.
