The studies presented in this papers cover the time period of 2010 and 2018 for the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation region, accounting for PM10 (PM size <10 μm), PM2.5 (PM size <2.5 μm), SO2, NO2, CO, and VOC emissions. The inventory is spatially disaggregated at 0.01° resolution on a GIS platform. Last update on the emissions inventory, modeled annual and monthly source contributions is also available as part of the India-APnA city program.
