Cars, trucks, and other vehicles typically run on gasoline or diesel, fuels release harmful chemicals in the air. These emissions can create a multitude of problems, including health issues and environmental degradation due to pollution. To reduce these emissions and the problems that they create, it is really important to monitor and control them more frequently. This paper tries to address these issues proposing a real-time vehicle emission monitoring and location tracking framework. The proposed framework uses two main technologies Vehicle On-Board Diagnostic (OBD-II) to monitor vehicle emission information and Assisted Global Positioning System (A-GPS) to get location of the vehicle at real-time. The existing wireless network infrastructure is used in supporting the emission and location data collection on a central server and further processing and presentation of the information is done. To evaluate the operational effectiveness of the developed framework, simulation based experiment is conducted. Real-time vehicle flow on selected roads is conducted using the microscopic simulation SUMO.
