Project
The ART project is jointly funded by HSE, the Dutch Government, the AFSSET, the CEFIC LRI, Shell, Eurometaux, the BOHS and GSK.
Remarks
The ART 1.5 model will be integrated into the MEMORA Toolbox, that is currently being developed by BAUA. Then, the current website will go down. TNO offers an API of the underlying ART model on the DIAMONDS platform (see 'Advanced Reach Tool - API'
