abstract:
A correct evaluation of pollutant emissions and fuel consumption by vehicles in real use and
precisely geolocated in a road is an important activity and it is still open in the international scientific contexts.
Several experimental campaigns were carried out with some cars instrumented for both the acquisition of
kinematic data, polluting emissions in continuous, and GPS latitude, longitude and altitude data for the correct
geolocalization and slope variation during a path. In the context of qualitative and quantitative study of
correlation between kinematic sequences/emission/geographical position, the aim of this paper is an evaluation
of the deviation between the raw altitude acquired by GPS and the reconstructed signal by means of a
numerical method of GPS coordinates. Also cluster analysis of kinematic data is realized, keeping in mind new
corrected GPS data
