Abstract

Details are provided in this chapter about the implementation of the OTS and its initial findings. The EMITS project is presented as a measure of success of the OTS, including the achievement of its core aims. The brief focusses on environmental health as assessed using outputs from EMITS. Here, its three strands are relayed, along with details of the buildings monitoring programme, which was central to evaluating environmental health based on air quality and building measures. Findings based on publications by the author are conveyed in this chapter, focussing first upon the assessment of buildings as indicators of environmental health in the Oxford city centre.
